[Abundant harvests, good fortune, and prosperity of descendants] Daikokuten is one of the Seven Lucky Gods, beloved as gods of good fortune. Originally introduced from India as a deity protecting Buddhism, he was later associated with Okuninushi no Mikoto from Japanese mythology and worshipped as a god of fortune. He is depicted holding a small mallet and a large bag, and riding on a rice bale. The Seven Lucky Gods are surprisingly little known, but they are actually made up of deities and Buddhas from India, China, and Japan. Belief in the Seven Lucky Gods began in the late Muromachi period and is said to have become widely established among the common people by the mid-Edo period. Subsequently, customs such as pilgrimages to the Seven Lucky Gods and treasure ships were born, and today they are beloved as charming and auspicious deities.
