Fudō Myō-ō Hoodie

Fudō Myō-ō Hoodie
Fudō Myō-ō (also known as Fudo Myo, Fudo-san) which means "The Immovable Wisdom King". His name his written 不動明王 in Japanese and in Sanskrit his name is Ācala.
Fudō Myō-ō looks as fierce as the demons he slays, and some may even think he looks like one, but they would be mistaken. As he is a guardian of Buddhism and one of the Five Wisdom Kings with Gōzanze, Gundari, Daiitoku and Kongōyasha.
He has a braid of hair to the side in the manner of a servant to symbolize his service to all sentient life.
Fudo Myoo shows his passion with his face is twisted in anger, his eyebrows tilted and grimacing menacingly.
Fudo Myo-o uses his scary appearance to scare people into accepting salvation and to warn them of the demons anticipating them in hell if they don’t.
In his mouth, he has two fangs protruding out. The one pointing upwards represents the strength of his desire to serve Truth. Pointing downward on the other side expresses his immense compassion for the suffering of others.
The Wheel of Dharma also known as Dharma Chakra represents the Buddha's Dharma, the Buddha's teachings, and the universal moral order.
The Lotus flower on top of his head is associated with purity, spiritual awakening, and faithfulness. It is considered pure as it is able to rise from murky waters in the early hours and be absolutely clean.
He is surrounded by flames that symbolize the burning of anger and passion to purify the mind. Fudô Myo-o carries a rope in his left hand and uses it to catch and bind demons. His sword is called “Kurikara” or devil-subduing sword and is used to subdue demons and to cut through ignorance.
He turns anger into compassion and severs the ties of negative feelings and demons liberating us from our suffering through self-control. Battling evil with his immovable faith and his compassion for others. He has vowed is to bring forth the teachings of Dainichi–Nyorai to the world.
