Standing
atop a rock with a raging flame adora, the statue of Fudo
Myoo is holding a vajra-hilt sword in his right, which cut
through negative emotions, and in his left is a rope that
binds men of ignorance; a mean by which leads them to enlightenment.
The name Fudo Myoo means motionless or unshakable like
that of a mountain. It is a Japanese name for the Buddha Acala.
In Sanskrit his name means Conqueror of Three Poisons (three
passions: love, hatred and ignorance). He is a wrathful aspect
of Vairocana, one of the Five Great Kings of Light.
