Summary[edit]

Description
English: "Mandala / Memyō Bosatsu, with six arms and in pale flesh color, rides on a white horse. Near the horse’s mouth are two figures: one of them named Sanshitsu. At the back are three figures: Sanbo, Sanmyō, and San’in, all stepping on clouds. In front of the horse is a worshipping disciple. / Eulogy: Memyō Bosatsu, incarnating himself in the cosmos, / turns into a silkworm that spits out silk flosses. / Flying around the world, it is heralded by a suffusion of music, / responsive to people’s offerings, it brings them boundless good fortune." [Figures, from right to left]: "Sanmyō, San’in, Sanbo, Sanshitsu; Worshipping disciple making an offering"
