In Jowa 1 (834), the Shingon master Kukai (774-835) began the Rites
and Austerities of the Latter Seven Days, (Goshichinichi no
mishiho), in the Imperial court. This ritual to pray for national
protection at the beginning of the year continues to be practiced
at the Shingon temple To-ji in Kyoto to this day. The Kyoto
National Museum has a complete set of twelve deva paintings. This
exhibition features this set in its entirety along with related
paintings such as the National Treasure-designated screens
Landscape (KNM).
In the third month of Kenryaku 2 (1212), Kamo no Chomei (1155-1216)
composed Hojoki (An Account of My Hut), one of the most
representative literary works from the Kamakura period (1185-1333).
The Kyoto National Museum will present the Daifukuko-ji Temple
edition of Hojoki (designated Important Cultural Property), known
as the earliest existing copy, and other related manuscripts.
