Tahō Nyorai 多宝如来 Prabhuta Ratna プラブータ・ラトナ



- quote -
Prabhūtaratna
(Skt: प्रभूतरत्न; Traditional Chinese: 多寶; Simplified Chinese: 多宝;
Japanese: 多宝如来 Tahō Nyorai), translated as
Abundant Treasures or Many Treasures, is the Buddha who appears and verifies Shakyamuni's teachings in the Lotus Sutra and the Samantabhadra Meditation Sutra.
..... according to Robert Buswell, "Prabhūtaratna (Many Treasures) invites Shakyamuni to sit beside him inside his bejeweled stūpa, thus validating the teachings Shakyamuni delivered in the scripture."
Thich Nhat Hanh states
that Prabhūtaratna symbolizes "the ultimate Buddha" and Shakyamuni "the historical Buddha"; the two Buddhas sitting together signifies the non-duality of the ultimate and the historical, that at a given moment in the real world, one can touch the ultimate.
According to Nichiren,
in their interaction Shakyamuni and Many Treasures agreed to the perpetuation of the Law throughout the Latter Day.

The grave of poet 立原道造 Tachihara Michizo is in the compound.



- quote -
Michizō Tachihara 立原道造 Tachihara Michizō
(July 30, 1914 - March 29, 1939) was a Japanese poet and architect.
He died at age 24 from tuberculosis, before either career could seriously get under way. Michizō struggled to find a way for an urban poet to root himself in traditional customs and still be "modern."



Though a citizen of Tokyo, Michizō would rarely mention modern urban scenes in his work. Aside from several references to cars, Michizō chose to describe a vegetable, not a mineral realm. He described trains as vehicles of escape, rescuing him from being cooped up in his architectural office.
The natural landscapes of the Shinano Highlands
provided an endless parade of conventional imagery that Michizō would use in his work; such as birds, clouds, flowers, grasses, mountains, skies, trees, and wind. A sizable part of his poetry used poetic impulse, often causing his work to be labelled as "sentimental". He wrote openly about his feelings and expressed what was in his heart, allowing his verse to be both uncontaminated and genuine.
