The Meaning of the Jidokwan Logo
The center figure is a representation of Bodhidarma, also known as Daruma or Tamo. The traditional Daruma figure is a balanced figure that will not stay down if knocked over, it will right itself automatically. This automatic righting is representative of the Buddhist saying "Seven times down, eight times up". This is a common saying amoung early Jidokwan members.

Seat, pedestal, dias, daiza 台座
A pedestal or dais upon which a Buddhist image is placed.
The type of pedestal is related to the type of image it supports as well as the period in which it was made. The *rengeza 蓮華座 or lotus pedestal is one of the most common forms of base for Buddha and Bodhisattva images. In its simplified form it consists of a *kaeribana 反花 (a ring of lotus petals facing downward). In its complex form it has many levels and various components.

Kagura Dance 神楽
http://web-japan.org/kidsweb/master/kagura/1-art01.html
Kagura Dance and Music are part of the Shinto Rituals for the Gods, relating to ancient legends and were performed by priests and shrine maidens.
Now in some rural areas it is counted as a form of local art (minzoku geinoo) and preformed by the villagers themselves during the annual shrine festival. Some are are more like festive folk-drama. The area of Chichibu is especially known for its local kagura.
Some performances last more than one day. Even children perform in local kagura performances (kodomo kagura 子供神楽).
Masks made from Japanese paper (washi) are used and most old costumes are very precious.
There are various kagura types throughout Japan, see below.
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
The Mikagura 御神楽 style of Shinto is also known as kagura and is very similar to the court music of gagaku. The original dance was performed by the goddess Ama no Uzume no Mikoto to entice out the sun goddess into the world.
With time, Buddhist song-texts were introduced and the hichiriki, kagurabue, wagon and the shakubyoshi all came to be the instruments routinely used to accompany the songs. Only fifteen songs out of the repertoire are now performed and generally last about seven hours. The present performance tradition dates from the Meiji times.
The all male singers are divided into two groups; the motokata and the suekata, each with its own set of songs and a principal singer who accompanies himself on the shakubyoshi until the other singers and instruments enter at a point known as tsukedokoro. The song texts include some of the oldest known Japanese poetry.
The style is in general slow and solemn with the voice pure and unembellished. The notation is a system of neumes known as hakase, modelled on the notation for Buddhist chant, dating from the 12th century. The sumifu system has been in use since Meiji.
The Satokagura 里神楽 style of Shinto is distinct from the court kagura and instead features older ritual styles similar to that performed at Shinto shrines. This style of music involves the preparation of a shinza or place of worship to which the gods are invited. A priestess or miko is central to the ritual which is generally performed on winter evenings.
Satokagura can be subdivided into groups. One of the groups, Izumo kagura 出雲神楽, occurs throughout Japan, especially in the West and its main features are a series of dances performed with torimono (various ritual objects held by the dancers), followed by a noh play.
Another group, Ise kagura 伊勢神楽 is found in Kyoto and in the North and involves a ceromony known as yutate in which warm or boiling water is sprinkled about.
Edo kagura 江戸神楽 is found in Eastern Japan, especially Tokyo and is similar to Izumo kagura but is also influenced by mibu kyogen (a type of Buddhist morality play).
Other sub-groups include the Shishikagura 獅子神楽 which includes a lion dance (shishi-mai) and is now found in many forms throughout Japan and Yamabushi kagura 山伏神楽 which was originally performed by mountain ascetics. It embodies the eclectic, folk religious worldview of the Shugendo tradition.
With time, Satokagura took on a more theatrical form when special dance-halls were built especially for this style known as kaguradono. Accompanying instruments are generally found to be stick drums and transverse flutes. The rhythms are strong and lively.

Iwami Kagura 石見神楽
As a result of the evil deeds of her brother Susano-wo, the sun-goddess Amaterasu-omikami hid herself in the Cave of Heaven.
Susano, having been chased from Heaven, wandered across the continent of China until he crossed into the land of Izumo (modern Shimane prefecture) and came to the River Hi, where he met Princess Inada and an old couple wailing and lamenting.
When Susano asked why they were so upset, he was told that every year the terrible eight-headed serpent Yamato-no-Orochi appeared, and that it had already devoured seven of their daughters and would soon come to take their remaining child, Princess Inada. Susano soon formulated a plan and made the Orochi drink some poisoned sake brewed from various nuts, and then killed it whilst it was drunk.
He then recovered from the monster’s tail a sword that he named Ame-no-murakumo-no-tsurugi (Treasure Sword of Heaven) and presented it to his sister Amaterasu. He then married Princess Inada.

Matsumae Kagura 松前神楽, Hokkaido
The kagura style of dance and music is performed in the course of worshiping Shinto gods and this type of performance is best represented by the Matsumae kagura. It is believe to have been performed first in 1674 at Matsumae castle, formerly Fukuyama, being officially appointed to Lord Norihiro, the 6th head of the Matsumae clan.
Kagura of this style is performed mainly at shrines in the south of Hokkaido. The fact that the Matsumae Kagura is traditionally performed and transmitted by the Shinto priests alone has contributed to the refinement of its artistry. Among the kagura dances performed by ordinary people is the Sanjo Kagura which is a variation of the kagura from Hachimangu Shrine in Sanjo city in Niigata prefecture.
Also known as Dai Dai kagura, this particular style of performance was adopted by the Hokkaido Shrine, the Sumiyoshi Shrine in Otaru, the Muroran Hachiman Shrine, the Nopporo Shrine and the Takikawa Shrine among others, though kagura is no longer performed at the Takikawa Shrine.
Kagura of this sort was developed after the settlers who came from the Sanjo area invited performers of ancient court music from their town of origin to dedicate their performance to the shrine. The Dai Dai kagura is performed by ordinary people of the community unlike the Matsumae Kagura which is performed by priests.

Dai Kagura, Daikagura 太神楽 Edo Daikagura
Dai Kagura is a remnant of the activities of Shinto dance troupes in the Edo Period, who brought Kagura (God-Music) performances to the local people who could not worship at Ise Shrine. The troupes who traveled around Western Japan throughout the year gathered on annually on the afternoon of December 24 at the Masuda Shrine of the main actor to perform all their acts as offerings.
The performers used some special words with different meanings, for example:
fukareru - to be turned down
gomui - bad
gosha, go sha - five yen
hitotsubo - 1,8 liter, 1 sho
mochi - police
mokoi - good

What is “Edo-Daikagura”? Who is Senmaru?
Senmaru is a performer of “Edo-Daikagura”. “Edo” is an old name of Tokyo. “Daikagura”, it is very difficult to explain it.
Reportedly, the original purpose of Daikagura was to serve as a talisman for the people, chasing away evil on behalf of Jingu (the grand Shintoism shrines). Thus, Daikagura was originally a very sacred and serious performance. Today, the performance is becoming people’s entertainment. Senmaru wears a “kimono” and performs Japanese traditional tricks.

太神楽(だいかぐら)は古くより神社に伝わる「伎楽(ぎがく)・散楽(さんがく)」の一部で、伊勢神宮・熱田神宮の二ヶ所が発祥の地と伝えられています。
江戸開府と共に出府し、獅子舞を連れて氏子の家々を廻りお祓いをする風習が生まれました。神様に代わって悪魔祓いの獅子舞を演じたことから、代神楽(だいかぐら)とも呼ばれていました。
神様への「奉納」・氏子への「祈祷」等が主な内容だった太神楽は、寄席の出現に伴い「神事芸能」から「舞台芸能」へと変化をし、獅子舞の余興として演じていた曲芸は大衆への娯楽を提供する「寄席芸能」へと発展してきました。
江戸時代に始まったこの「太神楽曲芸」は、明治・大正・昭和と時代に合わせた技を取り入れ、平成の今へと受け継がれている伝統芸能です。
太神楽は「舞」・「曲芸」・「話芸」・「鳴り物」の四つの柱から成り立っています。

Locating Transcendence in Japanese Minzoku Geinô:
Yamabushi and Miko Kagura
Lisa Kuly
Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 2003
Contemporary minzoku geinô (minzoku geinoo, folk performing arts) in Japanese society is associated with the matsuri, or festival. Community members, such as workers and students, practise and perform various types of minzoku geinô in preparation for local festivals.
However, a look at the history of minzoku geinô reveals that originally its practitioners were marginalized members of society, who used ecstatic expression to perform various rites such as healings, exorcisms, and blessings.
Furthermore, the attitude toward ritual specialists was often negative; indeed, shamanistic practices were prohibited during the Meiji period (1868-1912). In response to social attitudes, ecstatic performers of Japan's premodern period negotiated their expressive powers in a variety of ways in order to survive.
This paper introduces the reader to the typology of minzoku geinô that involves ecstatic performance presented by yamabushi, male mountain-dwelling ascetics, and miko, female shamans generally associated with Shinto shrines. Moreover, the discussion in this paper illustrates how ecstatic performance changed throughout history to the extent that it is now seldom performed by marginalized ritual specialists.
Performers of contemporary minzoku geinô are accepted members of society. Furthermore, both the performers and the audience of minzoku geinô are affected by the transformative nature of ecstatic expression.

達磨 DARUMA
茶陶を離れた杉本の陶塑の世界
ものの形には直接的に精神性が出るものです。例えば「達磨」という一つの精神が、作り手の達磨に対する想いと一つになって作品がいかに形に反映されるか、が大切なところです。
また同時に焼き物でもありますから、その味わいも具えている作品、この両方が調和した「かたち」の世界にとりくんでおります。
