Enkū the wood carver

[Kokuu]

Hi all

This is a nice little podcast on Enkū the woodcarver. He was a 17th century monk who carved over 100 000 buddha statues out of wood, often in payment for his stays at monasteries.

Thank you, Kokuu.

I've looked up some pictures of Enku's statues, and they are really wonderful.

Lovely. For those who don't know the rough simplicity of Enku ...
