Kwannon and her holy kin have disappeared; Koshin, Lord of Roads, isindeed yet with us; but he has changed his name and become a Shintodeity: he is now Saruda-hiko-no-mikoto; and his presence is revealedonly by the statues of the Three Mystic Apes which are his servants- Mizaru, who sees no evil, covering his eyes with his hands, Kikazaru, who hears no evil, covering his ears with his hands. Iwazaru, who speaksno evil, covering his mouth with his hands.
Yet no! one Bosatsu survives in this atmo...sphere of magical Shinto: stillby the roadside I see at long intervals the image of Jizo-Sama, thecharming playfellow of dead children. But Jizo also is a little changed;even in his sextuple representation, [4] the Roku-Jizo, he appears notstanding, but seated upon his lotus-flower, and I see no stones piled upbefore him, as in the eastern provinces.
