| 抄録 | Merōfu Kannon (Ch. Malangfu Guanyin) had a significant following and
was the inspiration for numerous poems and religious pictures in China
and Japan. This article (1) explores the historical background and origins of
Merōfu (“the wife of Master Ma”)—a potent symbol of female lay piety who
became regarded as a manifestation of Kannon; (2) provides translations and
analyses of some poems by Chan and Zen priests referring to her; (3) focuses
on the worship of Merōfu Kannon in the circle of Emperor Gomizuno-o and
Empress Tōfukumon’in. The impetus for this article were the delicately crafted
oshie images of this deity made by Tōfukumon’in and her step-daughter
Shōzan Gen’yō (founder of Rinkyūji Imperial Convent) which I discovered
at temples in Kyoto and Shiga prefecture. All seem to be based on the same
Chinese prototype. The second half of the article provides descriptions of the
five oshie Merōfu Kannon known to me and documentation concerning the
circumstances of their creation and donation. Through these images, I try to
illuminate the meaning of Merōfu Kannon in imperial circles in seventeenthcentury
Japan. |
