about

***

"The [sound of the Gion Shōja] bells [echoes the impermanence] of all things. Twinned sal trees, white in full flower, declare the great man's certain fall. The arrogant do not long endure: They are like a dream one night in spring. The bold and brave perish in the end: They are as dust before the wind."
- opening of Heike Monogatari (Royall Tyler translation, except parts in [ ] modified to Helen McCullough translation)

The story of Buke no Kitsune, now of the waves, continues with Fox's training by six masters at Kitsune-jinja

1. Kitsune 狐 (Fox)
2. Kuma 熊 (Bear)
3. Usagi 兎 (Rabbit)
4. Kame 亀 (Turtle)
5. Neko 猫 (Cat)
6. Shika 鹿 (Deer)
