Ryokudobo [Ryoku Tara]

Ryokudobo is Kanjizai Bosatsu(Shou Kannon). He was basically transformed into Juuichimen Kannon(eleven faced Kannon), Senju Kannon(one thousand armed Kannon), Nyoirin Kannon so on. Shou Kannon is also called Sei Kannon in order to be distinguished from transformed Kannon.("Sho" means sacred, "Sei" means right). This deity is the same as Kongou Bosatsu; a representative of the four attendants of Amida Nyorai of the Sixteen Great Bosatsu in Diamond World. He has a bud of a lotus flower ruling over the virtue of the great benevolence. It is generally believed that if you master his law, you could get free from distresses, vanquish sins, get treasure and a long life.
