Kokuzo Bosatsu
Deity of Wisdom and Memory
Guardian of People Born in the Zodiac Year of the Ox and Tiger
Kokuzo Bosatsu holds a wish-granting gem (nyoihoshu) which represents joy and virtue, through this he bestows worldly blessings of happiness, wisdom and good fortune on all beings. In his right hand he carries a sharp sword representing wisdom.
By doing the Kokuzo Gumonji-ho "The Morning Star meditation" and reciting the mantra of Kokuso it is said that Kokuzo will increase intelligence when recited one million times.
Kokuzo (also written Kokuuzou, Kokuuzoo) is a symbol the "vast and boundless" Buddha wisdom that permeates the universe. Believers pray to Kokuzo to grant them wisdom on their quest toward enlightenment. People also pray to Kokuzo to improve their memory, technical skills, and artistic talents, for Kokuzo is revered not only as the deity of wisdom, but as a protector of craftspeople and artisans.
Kokuzo was introduced to Japan in the late Nara period (645-794 AD) as part of a special rite to improve one's memory -- hence, Kokuzo's reputation even today of a deity who bestows intelligence on devotees.
In Japan today, sculptures of Kokuzo are generally found only among Shingon temples and some Tendai temples, where special esoteric rites are still performed (mostly in secret) to ensure good memory, the granting of wishes, and the bestowal of Kokuzo's "vast and boundless" blessings.
The Mantra of Kokuzo
In Japanese: Nôbô akyasha kyarabaya on arikya mari bori sowaka
In Sanskrit: Namo Âkâsagarbhaya om ârya kamari mauli svâhâ
Homage to the great Space-bearer who holds a flower and
wears a garland and a jeweled crown svâhâ

Kôbô Daishi and the light beings
Thank you to the Shingon Buddhist International Institute
Kôbô Daishi was able to encounter Esoteric Buddhism in his youth by praying to Kokûzô Bodhisattva, reciting his mantra a million times.
Since Kokûzô is the great wisdom of the Buddha that exists throughout the entire universe, he has the virtue of enabling those who chant his mantra. They must also form his mudras, discipline themselves to a strict regimen, and practice this Gumonji method to obtain the wisdom of the Buddha and become enlightened.
Kôbô Daishi embodied the wisdom of Kokûzô Bodhisattva into himself, and became the Bodhisattva of the Three Realms.

Kokuzo Bosatsu (Bodhisattva) can appear in many different forms. In sculpture, Kokuzo's role as bestower of wishes means that Kokuzo is shown frequently holding the wish-granting jewel. In another variant, Kokuzo holds a lotus stem surmounted with the sacred wish-giving gem. In another popular representation, Kokuzo holds a sword to symbolize wisdom cutting through ignorance. Kokuzo is sometimes portrayed with the "Fear Not" Mudra, a gesture that symbolizes the granting of protection to Buddhist followers. At other times, Kokuzo is depicted with a hand gesture known as the Wish-Granting Mudra (aka the Charity, Welcome, or Blessing mudra). This latter mudra is associated closely with the Historical Buddha, and represents the granting of wishes to those who welcome the teachings of Buddhism.
Kokuzo is no longer venerated widely in Asia or Japan, with the exception of Japan's Shingon Sect of Esoteric Buddhism, where Kokuzo serves as the last of the Thirteen Deities of the Shingon School (consisting of Five Buddha, Seven Bodhisattva, and Fudo Myoo). As a group, these 13 represent the chief deities of the Womb World and Diamond World mandalas. As one of the thirteen, Kokuzo presides over the memorial service held on the 32nd anniversary after one's death. On the Japanese island of Honshu, children who are 13 years of age still follow the custom of paying homage to Kokuzo in the hopes of becoming more intelligent. In Japan's esoteric traditions, Kokuzo is also counted among the 16 Deities of the Auspicious Aeon, and as one of the 16 Great Bodhisattva.
Kokuzo Bodhisattva (Space Repository) was originally paired with Jizo Bodhisattva (Earth Repository), with the two representing the blessings of space and earth respectively. This pairing is now almost completely forgotten. Today Jizo is one of Japan's most popular deities among the common folk, and is worshipped both independently and as an important member of Amida Buddha's retinue. In contrast, Kokuzo is a relatively neglected deity whose devotees come largely from the Shingon tradition.
Kokuzo's central role in the esoteric rite to improve one's memory is described in the Gumonjihou (In Japan). Kokuzo is described in the Kokuzo Sutra (known in Japan as Kokuzo Bosatsu Kyo) as one who removes obstacles, one who helps people recognize and overcome their errors, and one who encourages the practice of the Six Perfections (Sanskrit = Paramita). In addition to the central virtue of compassion, there are Six Perfections that a Bodhisattva must cultivate in order to attain Buddhahood.
