Ick-ler The Monkey

'Hear no evil, say no evil, see no evil'

Mikazaru,Mazaru,Mizaru

A very Buddhist sentiment, carved with irony on the shrine of Tokugawa Ieyasu, who certainly witnessed and participated in many violations of the Eightfold Way.

For a Kurosawa exposition of those bloody times please see the movie 'Kagemusha'
