It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.

Now

A recent transplant from Shinjuku, Izo Imaizumi is a first-year college student at Sumaru College. Tall, quiet, perpetually stubbled, he's thus far kept more or less to himself. He doesn't seem to have any real ties in the area, though he seems to know -- if not exactly be friendly with -- Masahiko Irie, a youth four years his junior. He's polite, but if asked, some might say he seems a bit troubled, preoccupied, or aloof. Some might say he seems a bit intense.

Most would probably say, 'who?'

As for what brings a Tokyo boy all the way to Sumaru? He's close-lipped.

Persona, Resonance


From Wikipedia:

Dakini: A dakini (Sanskrit: डाकिनी ḍākinī; Tibetan: མཁའ་འགྲོ་མ་ khandroma, Wylie: mkha' 'gro ma, TP: kanzhoima; Chinese: 空行母) is a tantric deity described as a female embodiment of enlightened energy. In the Tibetan language, dakini is rendered khandroma which means 'she who traverses the sky' or 'she who moves in space'. Sometimes the term is translated poetically as 'sky dancer' or 'sky walker'.

Dakinis, being associated with energy in all its functions, are linked with the revelation of the Anuttara Yoga Tantras or Higher Tantras, which represent the path of transformation, whereby the energy of negative emotions or kleshas, called poisons, are transformed into the luminous energy of enlightened awareness (jnana) yielding rigpa.

Thus dakinis are the guardians of the deeper mysteries of the self, and it is through them that the secrets of inner transformation are opened.'


In particular, the unique internal challenges that Izo faces are embodied best by the Ishta-deva of the East, described thus:

East
Element: Water
Chief Buddha: Vajrasattva
Consort: Mamaki
Color: Blue
Enemy: Violent Anger
Virtue: Mirror-like Wisdom
Accompanying Bodhisattvas: Kshitigarbha, Lasema, Maitreya, Pushpema

As to why such a feminine manifestation of wisdom ought to be expressed by an often brooding, darkling yakuza -- that's probably something best left to personal investigation.


Resonance

Scent: Warm incense and oils (almond, anise, caraway, moss, jasmine sambac, vanilla, jacarander wood, musk), candleflame, cold stone, the sharp tang of frozen mountain water.
Sound: Lingering, chiming, sonorous tones, both high and low: Tibetan singing bowls, instruments of meditation.
Sense: Deep clarity, emptiness, heightened awareness, meditative peace.
