Edward G Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Gentlemen: Attached are some pictures of Bonji characters on a blade that might be Buddhist phrases. In any event any help with what they mean would be appreciated. Thank You Edward G. Quote
george trotter Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 Can't help with the bonji...they don't seem to match those in my (very limited) list. The regular kanji spell out "Hachiman Dai Bosatsu". Hope this helps a bit... Quote
runagmc Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 The second looks like Monju Bosatsu... Quote
ROKUJURO Posted March 12, 2014 Report Posted March 12, 2014 The second starts with HACHI..... See also http://www.jssus.org/nkp/bonji.html Quote
Edward G Posted March 12, 2014 Author Report Posted March 12, 2014 Thank you George Trotter, Chris Bowen, runagmc, rokujuro, and Justin. All of you have been a great help to me understanding what these characters translated mean. Edward G. :D Quote
