Three Stone Buddhas in the Woods

This stone statue of the Magaibutsu was carved in 1262 by Tachibana Yasunawa, and along with the Kubikirijizo (Higashio Amitabha Sekiganbutsu) is the oldest in Tono. The center of the boulder features the Jizobosatsu, with Amitabha Nyorai on the left, and the 11-faced Kannon on the right, creating a very unusual stone-buddha triptych. Legend says this was the honzon (principal object of worship) of the old Jodo-in sub-temple.
