Scroll of Mudras (Buddhist hand gestures) , , Japan, Heian period (7941185) , 11th12th century Handscroll; ink on paper 11 3/16 x 97 1/2 in. (28.4 x 24...7.6 cm) Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York 'This handscroll depicts hand gestures known as mudras in Sanskrit, the Indian language in which many early Esoteric Buddhist texts were written. In Japan the gestures are called ins, the Japanese term for a Chinese word that combines the characters for "seal" and "form." In Esoteric Buddhism mudras are physical enactments of ultimate truths revealed through the Buddhas and other deities. Practitioners of Esoteric Buddhism in Japan form mudras during meditation and rituals and use them to interpret the meaning of painted and sculpted Buddhist images. These scrolls were passed down in the Kyoto temple Shren-in, a Tendai School temple traditionally administrated by imperial princes who had taken religious vows.' - From the website of the Metropolitan Museum As featured in 'Jeux de mains' by by Stephen Ellcock and Cécile Sayuri Poimboeuf-Koizumi , published by Chose Commune
