Description:
"Kyodo Risshi no Motoi" (Heroes and heroines who have been regarded as standards of moral leadership and success). Myotaku was a disciple of Muso Kokushi. But he liked to draw pictures very much despite the opposition from Muso. One day, Muso saw Myotaku was secretly drawing Fudo-myo-o. Muso was very surprised by the mastery of the picture and let Myotaku draw pictures from then on.
