- quote -
..... The earliest tengu were pictured with beaks, but this feature has often been humanized as an unnaturally long nose, which today is widely considered the tengu's defining characteristic in the popular imagination.



Buddhism long held that the tengu were disruptive demons and harbingers of war. Their image gradually softened, however, into one of protective, if still dangerous, spirits of the mountains and forests.



Tengu are associated with the ascetic practice known as Shugendō, and they are usually depicted in the distinctive garb of its followers, the yamabushi.

Folktales about the Tengu



:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

Kobu-tori Jiisan 瘤取り爺さん The Old Man's Lump Removed
An old man has a lump or tumor on his face. In the mountains he encounters a band of tengu making merry and joins their dancing. He pleases them so much that they take the lump off his face, thinking that he will want it back and join them the next night. An unpleasant neighbor, who also has a lump, hears of the old man's good fortune and attempts to repeat it. The tengu, however, simply give him the first lump in addition to his own, either to keep their bargain, or because they are disgusted by his bad dancing. (This story is also often told with oni, a sort of ogre, instead of tengu.



. Amulets and Tales from Shiga prefecture .

..............................................................................................................................................

Takara no geta 宝の下駄 Precious Geta
Once upon a time, a mother and son who were very poor lived at a certain place. Once the mother was sick and had fallen asleep. They didn't have money to buy medicine so the son was going to borrow money from an uncle. The uncle's name was Gonzo and he was a very greedy and mean person. He told his poor nephew, "I don't have any money for you or your mother." So the boy couldn't borrow money from his uncle.

The boy was very sad and on his way home he met a Tengu, which is a long-nosed goblin, with a very white beard. The Tengu has supernatural powers and can fly freely high up in the sky. He lives high in mountain caves. The Tengu asked the boy, "What's wrong with you? Why do you look so serious?" The boy explained his worries to him. The Tengu laughed loudly, "Ha, ha, ha!" and then gave his Ipponba-geta, or one tooth geta, to the boy. He told the boy, "These geta are precious geta. If you wear these and fall down, a koban (an ancient Japanese oval gold coin) will appear. But too much falling down will make you become short. So, don't fall down unless you really need money." After the Tengu told the boy about this, he laughed loudly again, "Ha, ha, ha!" He then made a strong gale of wind with a feather fan in his hand, and in no time at all he flew up and over the mountain.

The boy was amazed and dumbstruck for a short while. Gradually he came to himself and put on the geta and promptly tried falling down. Fall - plump! A koban appeared as the Tengu said it would. He fell down two times and two koban appeared. The boy was very excited and happy but he remembered what the Tengu had warned him of and he didn't fall down any more. He took his geta and gold coins home carefully.

As soon as his Uncle Gonzo heard about the boy's good luck and his Tengu geta he asked the boy, " You have koban that came from precious geta, haven't you? Let me use them."

The boy started to give his uncle the warning, "Uncle, there is a special way how to use these geta."

"Shut up." said the uncle, "I know how to use them, just fall down." The uncle wouldn't listen to him and took the geta from him by force and went home. After the uncle got home, he closed all the doors and windows then he lay a large cloth wrapper on the floor to catch the coins. He put on the geta and began falling down, fall - plump. Then as he watched, koban appeared very noisily.

After a while the boy went to see how his uncle Gonzo was doing. As soon as he opened the door, koban coins were overflowing everywhere but he couldn't see his uncle. "Uncle, where are you?" he called. Looking for his geta, he pushed the mountain of koban coins that had come from the geta. "Here they are!" he yelled. As he looked at the geta he could see a little bug stuck to them. The boy grabbed the bug and threw it away.

The truth is that the bug was his uncle. He had wanted too many koban coins and had fallen down so much that he became smaller and smaller and finally looked like a little bug. The boy took home the mountain of koban coins and his geta and lived happily with his mother. Today in Japan we have a bug called "Gonzo-mushi" which means "Gonzo-bug". This name comes from this greedy uncle from this story.

Tengu no Hyōtan 天狗の瓢箪 The Tengu's Gourd
A gambler meets a tengu, who asks him what he is most frightened of. The gambler lies, claiming that he is terrified of gold or mochi. The tengu answers truthfully that he is frightened of a kind of plant or some other mundane item. The tengu, thinking he is playing a cruel trick, then causes money or rice cakes to rain down on the gambler. The gambler is of course delighted and proceeds to scare the tengu away with the thing he fears most. The gambler then obtains the tengu's magic gourd (or another treasured item) that was left behind.

Once a drunkard met a Tengu on the road and exchanged his 柿の種 persimmon seeds atainst a Kakuremino and kakuregasa 隠れ笠 umbrella to make him invisible. Burning the items, even the ashes made him invisible. So he sneaked into a Sake maker's 酒蔵 store house and enjoyed drinking. But when he had to go out at night for a pee, he was suddenly visible and all were quite astonished.

Tengu no koma 天狗のこま

昔、まわりを深い杉の木立でぐるっと囲まれた小さな村に、国清寺という寺がありました。寺の周りも深い杉の木立が取り巻いており、昼間でも尚暗く、その上その杉木立の中には昔から「天狗の鼻」と呼ばれる、奇妙な形をした岩が祀られていたそうな。

さて、この国清寺にはいたずら者の「一兆さん」という小僧さんがいました。この一兆さんの悪戯には、和尚さんもほとほと手を焼いておられました。

和尚さんがお出かけで不在の時などは、一兆さんは修行もせず、村の子供たちとコマ回しをして遊んでいました。一兆さんのコマは強く、他のコマを弾き飛ばし、みんなのコマを巻き上げてしまうほどでした。

そんな一兆さんでしたが、たった一つだけ怖いことがありました。それは夜に便所に行くことです。今夜も寺の長い長い廊下を思い切って駆けて行き、渡し板を渡って便所に駆け込みました。やっとの思いで用を足して戻ってくると、先ほど渡った廊下の渡し板が落ちて部屋に戻れなくなっていました。

その時、天狗がばたばたっと一兆さんの周りに降り立ったかと思うと、あっというまに一兆さんの体は宙に持ち上げられ、何やら真っ暗い場所に連れさられてしまいました。天狗たちは、いたずら者の一兆さんを天狗に変えようとしました。一兆さんが必死に嫌だと抵抗すると、自分の懐(ふところ)にコマが入っているのに気付きました。

コマ回しなら誰にも負けんと思った一兆さんは、天狗達にコマ回しの勝負を持ちかけました。一兆さんは、天狗たち相手に勝って勝って勝ちまくりました。ことごとく負けた天狗達は負けコマを一兆さんの懐にむりやりねじ込むと、ものすごい笑い声と羽音と共に飛び立っていきました。

気が付いてみるとすっかり夜は明けており、一兆さんの懐の中のコマは、不思議なことにすべてキノコに変わっていました。その夜、国清寺では一兆さんの話に大笑いしながら、みんなでお腹いっぱいキノコを食べたということです。

The Tengu, and the Woodcutter 山仕事
A tengu bothers a woodcutter, showing off his supernatural abilities by guessing everything the man is thinking. The woodcutter swings his axe, and a splinter of wood hits the tengu on the nose. The tengu flees in terror, exclaiming that humans are dangerous creatures who can do things without thinking about them.

Jooga 嫦娥 Joga, Chang'e
Kooga 姮娥(こうが)Koga, Heng'e
Lady Chang-O, The Moon Lady

A sennyo 仙女 Sennyo fairy, nymph from Chinese mythology.


Chang'e flees to the moon (Joga hongetsu tsuki)
Tsukioka Yoshitoshi

- quote
嫦娥收玉兔 Chang'e receives the Jade Rabbit
Chang'e ordered the moon rabbit to make a new immortality medicine for her once she had ascended to the moon from the earth after consuming the original, which she stole from her husband, so that she could return to him.
Chang'e (嫦娥 Joga) is a Chinese Princess. She drank the Horai Elixir, for which she was imprisoned on the Moon.

Chang'e or Chang-o,
originally known as Heng'e, is the Chinese goddess of the Moon. She is the subject of several legends in Chinese mythology, most of which incorporate several of the following elements: Houyi the archer, a benevolent or malevolent emperor, an elixir of life, and of course, the Moon.
In modern times, Chang'e has been the namesake of the Chinese Lunar Exploration Program.

There are many tales about Chang'e, including a well-known story which is given as the origin of the Mid-Autumn Moon Festival. In a very distant past, ten suns had risen together into the skies and scorched the earth, thus causing hardship for the people. The archer Yi shot down nine of them, leaving just one sun, and was given the elixir of immortality as a reward. He did not consume it straight away, but hid it at home, as he did not want to gain immortality without his beloved wife Chang'e. However, while Yi went out hunting, Fengmeng broke into his house and tried to force Chang'e to give him the elixir; she refused and drank it herself. Chang'e then flew upwards towards the heavens, choosing the moon as residence. Yi discovered what had transpired and felt sad, so he displayed the Fruits and Cakes that Chang'e had liked, and gave sacrifices to her.



- Worship
The recently rediscovered divination text Guizang contains the story of Chang'e as a story providing the meaning to Hexagram 54 of the I Ching, "Returning Maiden".
On Mid-Autumn Day, the full Moon night of the eighth lunar month, an open-air altar is set up facing the Moon for the worship of Chang'e. New pastries are put on the altar for her to bless. She is said to endow her worshipers with beauty.
- She is also well liked in popular culture ...

"The Tengu's Fan" (天狗の羽団扇, Tengu no Hauchiwa)
A scoundrel obtains a tengu's magic fan, which can shrink or grow noses. He secretly uses this item to grotesquely extend the nose of a rich man's daughter, and then shrinks it again in exchange for her hand in marriage. Later he accidentally fans himself while he dozes, and his nose grows so long it reaches heaven, resulting in painful misfortune for him.

. Legends and Tales from Japan 伝説 - Introduction .

Once a Tengu met a run-down gambler with a special dice, said to bring 千里眼 clairvoiance. So he exchanged his feather fan for it. When he found out he had been cheated, the Tengu went looking for the home of the gambler. The home was surrounded by plants that a Tengu dislikes, (thorny brambles and azaleas).
In his anger the Tengu threw 牡丹餅 sweet rice cakes at the home, not knowing that this was a well-loved food by the gambler.

............................................................................ Miyagi 宮城県

Once upon a time there lived なまけ者の時 a lazy person called Toki. He was told to go to the mountain forest to work, but he soon sat down under a pine tree and had a nap. But on this tree happened to sit a Tengu, who wanted to play a trick on Toki. He fanned the nose with his feather fan, so that it grew quite long. When Toki woke up and found his nose had grown he was quite surprized. The Tengu said to him:
"With my fan you can make your nose very long or very short. I will lent it to you and we can make some good money with this! If you fan with the front side a nose will grow longer. If you fan with the back side, a nose will shrink."
Toki was lucky and made a good bit of money with this fan.
Once he had to shit whilst in the wilderness and had nothing to wipe his behind, so he thought he could use
just a bit of the back of his magic fan.
Then he went back to his business, making his nose long. But when he tried to make it short again, it did not shrink any more and he became the laughing stock of the region.
He had to become a beggar, walking around shaking his long nose, begging for food.

At 魔尼山 Manizan there lived a Tengu.
The only son of the 西野家 Nishino family in 大工 Daikumachi village was once abducted by a person looking like a mountain priest. Seven years later his mother had a dream. Her son appeared and told her he was taken care of by a Tengu who taught him many things. He would soon graduate and asked her to place some vegetables and a large portion of rice (tengu no goohan 強飯) on the roof.
When she did as asked, the next night there were voices outside on the roof, then it became quiet again.
Another ten and more years later, the feather fan of a Tengu was delivered to the Nishio family and she was sure it was a keepsake of her son.
The house of the Nishio family never bured down, not even during the great fire in the village.

... Apparently the tengu shide is a mutation and the only place in the world it grows is around Oasa. According to the local story, if you try climbing one of these trees a tengu will appear and throw you off.

Kawa Tengu is a Japanese Yokai monster folklore in Kanto area. It is a kind of Tengu that prefers to live near a river.
One
that lives in Ohhatabushi in Tamagawa always sits on a rock sadly. But one spring day, this Kawa Tengu was sitting on the same rock with young female Tengu.
One
that lives in Mizune valley appears with Mountain Tengu and make noise of water splashing, waterfalls, and rocks falling.

Once a man from 多野郡上野村塩ノ Ueno, Shionozawa went fishing at night and said he saw a Kawa Tengu. From upstream a ball of light came down and when he cast his net in this direction, he caught a lot of fish.
Another fisher tells of the ball of fire getting inside his net, but when he hauled it out, the fire ball disappeared and he was left with a great catch.
(Maybe the source of the fire are some special insects or 発光バクテリア bacteria which produce light which lure the fish?)

Kawatengoo 川天狗(かわてんごう) Kawatengo, Kawa Tengo

仁助兄弟が、三沢村三井の霧ヶ瀬で網打ちをしていると、鮎がたくさん捕れ、天狗様がやきもちをやかぬように、いつもの通り、ハラワタを抜いた2、3尾の鮎を生簀の板の上に並べて贄を捧げた。しかし、天狗様の気に入らなかったのか、大きな火の玉が舟に落ち、兄弟はびっくりして家に逃げ帰った。このテンゴーサマはカワウソのいたずらだという。
.
ある夜、鮎を捕るためにやなを掛けて番をしていると、火の玉が川波にゆられて下へ流れる。相棒が、上に流れるわけがない、と言うと、火の玉は上流に向かって流れた。こうしたことはみなカワテンゴウ(川天狗)の仕業で、そういう時は、捕った魚はいつの間にか川天狗にみんな食われてしまうという。
.
津久井郡牧野村を流れる川に水神の渕と呼ばれる所がある。その渕には、幅9尺、高さ6尺位の岩が突出していて、その下に空洞があり、甲州の安寺(あてら)沢に続いていると言われていた。この渕には河童が住んでおり、子供は一切水浴びに行かなかったという。
.
網打ちしているとたくさん鮎が獲れた。天狗が嫉妬しないように腸を抜いた鮎を捧げたが、気に入らないのか大きな火の玉が落ちてきた。実はかわうそのいたずらだった。
.
妻が1人で家にいると、かわいい見慣れない子供が来て火をくれと言う。毎日同じ事が続き、夫は、それは人間ではなく河童に違いないから、火をやってみるとよい、と言う。その翌日も子供が来たので、妻が火を差し出すと、子供は「御免なさい」と言って逃げ出したので、妻は火を持ってその後を追ったという。
.
夜中に川へ行くと、真っ暗な中を火の玉が転がってくることがあるが、これは川天狗というものである。これが出た時には、河原の石の上を洗い清めて、取れた魚を供えると消えるのだという。また、投網をしているときに少し離れた辺りを同じく投網しながら行くもの、或いは、大勢の人の声がして松明の灯があるにも拘らず、その実何もないようなとき、それらも川天狗の仕業だという。
.
A man named 角田福三 Kakuda Fukuzo
角田福三氏が、15、6歳の頃、船頭の金太さんを連れて網打ちに行った。しかし、金太はなにを話しかけても返事をせず、気分でも悪いのだろうと川原へ上がり、小屋で休んだが、やはり口は重く、ただ寒い寒いと震えているばかりだった。再び船に乗りこみ、金太に事情を尋ねると、舳に大入道が出たのだという。大入道は恐らくカワウソの化けたものだという。
.
小雨の晩、角田福三氏が祖父と鐘ヶ淵の岩下に鮎を捕りに行った。突然ドボーンと大きな水音がし、2人は急に体がゾクゾクするほど気味が悪くなった。祖父はきっと身投げに違いないと言い、翌朝行ってみたが、それらしいものはなく、川原の砂地に子犬ぐらいの足跡が沢山ついていた。それはカワウソの足跡で、水音もカワウソのいたずらだったのだろうという。

内郷村 Uchigomura

小雨のそぼ降る晩、鮎漁をしていたら、青色の火の玉が現れた。火の玉は2、3回廻って消えてしまった。こんなのを川天狗と言うのだろう。

- wikipedia
神奈川県津久井郡内郷村(現・相模原市緑区)では川天狗は姿を現すことはなく、夜に人が川で漁をしていると、大きな火の玉が突然転がって来ることがあり、これが川天狗の仕業とされていた。このようなときは、河原の石の上を洗い清め、獲れた魚を供えるとこの怪異は失せたという。また人が川に網を放つと、川天狗も姿を見せずに網を放つ音を立てたという。誰もいないのに大勢の人声が聞こえたり松明の火が盛んに見えるものも、川天狗と呼ばれた

The Yama Tengu from Tsukui 山天狗

- quote -
旧津久井郡域相模川周辺(支流でも)、河童の話が多いが、所謂頭にお皿で背中に甲羅のカッパのイメージとは大分違うようだ。以下、日文研のデータベースからいくつか引きながら見ておこう。

・河童の姿形や生態については、以下のように言われている。犬のようであり、胴長で、後ろ足が短く、魚を食う。道志川にも河童はおり、子供が食われてしまったという話もある。昔の人に話を聞くと、しばしば言われる頭の上の皿もないものと言われている。(神奈川県史)

ということでこれはカワウソ的なモノなんじゃないかという感じである。実際後に引く話ではカワウソのいたずらだと言っている。で、このカッパをどうも「かわてんごー」というようなのだが、川天狗ということだろう。そうすると正しく「狗」を引いていることになる。

・夜中に川へ行くと、真っ暗な中を火の玉が転がってくることがあるが、これは川天狗というものである。これが出た時には、河原の石の上を洗い清めて、取れた魚を供えると消えるのだという。(神奈川県史)

さらにはこのように火の玉と密接に繋がった存在とされている。『日本書紀』舒明紀の天狗(あまつきつね)のようなイメージがあるいはあるのかもしれない。

・仁助兄弟が、三沢村三井の霧ヶ瀬で網打ちをしていると、鮎がたくさん捕れ、天狗様がやきもちをやかぬように、いつもの通り、ハラワタを抜いた2、3尾の鮎を生簀の板の上に並べて贄を捧げた。しかし、天狗様の気に入らなかったのか、大きな火の玉が舟に落ち、兄弟はびっくりして家に逃げ帰った。このテンゴーサマはカワウソのいたずらだという。(民俗)

おおよそ全体的にどのようなものか皆語られている例というとこんなだろうか。火の玉でカワウソで魚を沢山獲るとやきもちを焼くのがテンゴーサマ・川天狗・河童ということのようだ。一方津久井の火の玉の怪の原因の多くは狐とされるが、案外狐と河童が近い所にいるのかもしれない。

丹沢湖 Kawatengu from Lake Tazawako 神奈川県山北町


source : toki.moo.jp/gaten/251-300

「西丹沢・丹沢湖畔の川天狗」
When the 三保ダム dam was built to make Lake Tazawako, many homes were lost and to appease their spirits, various stone Buddha statues were replaced here.
Behind the 神縄トンネルTunnel is a stone statue of the Kawa Tengu.
The deity Hakuryuushin 白竜神 Hakuryu Shin (White Dragon Deity) is also venerated with a stone memorial.

After it has rained, there sometimes was a hi no tama 火の玉 fire ball in the 松林 pine forest, and people were afraid of it.
During the early Edo period, a Kawa Tengu begun to pass around there and the fire got even larger 猛火 with roaring flames. Sometimes the road could not be used at all. People had to put their 草履 straw sandals on the head and apologize before passing.

あるとき、川狩をしていたら。突然火の玉が現れたので、驚いて逃げ帰った。また、同じところで別の人々が魚捕りをしていたら、どこからか小石が飛んできて怖くなったので逃げた。翌朝見に行くと捕った魚は一尾もなかった。川天狗の仕業。
.
夜間出漁した漁師が川天狗に邪魔されることが往々にあったが、物慣れた漁師だと捕った魚を石の上に並べ「かけごをあげるから悪戯を止めてください」と唱えて祈ると利目がある。
.
川狩に行った帰り、提灯がこちらに近づいてきて話し声もするので隠れると、間近に来て提灯の火は消え声もしなくなったので、不思議に思いながら帰宅してみると、魚がすっかり捕られていた。
.
夜、水田で鰌をとった帰り、後ろの方でざわざわと音がするので振り返ると、見える限り一面が洪水になっていた。駆け出す拍子に水田の中に転び、鰌を入れた籠を取り落とした。夜が明けてもついに籠は見つからなかった。川天狗の話。

大畑淵には昔川天狗が棲んでいて、あるとき嫁をもらった。ある夜天狗の嫁がある家に膳椀を借りに来たので、喜んで貸すと、いつの間にか返してあってみみずが入っていた。熱病の人にみみずを煎じて飲ますと全快した。

余沢の人が子供のころ、祖父が川の魚をとりに投網を持って夜中に行ったら川天狗が出てきて青くなって逃げたという話を聞いた。大きい人間のように見えたという。何回も見た。害をしたりはせずにただ姿を見せ、水の中(渕)に立つ。今の平山バンガロー付近でみたという。

西八代郡 Nishiyatsushiro 上九一色村 Kamikuishiki

精進湖には昔から河童が住んでおり、土地の人はこれを川天狗と呼んだ。川天狗は何にでも化ける。ある日漁夫が魚釣りに行くと向こうから小学生くらいの大きさで、あばた面の見知らぬ顔の者が歩いてきた。子供は漁夫に「どこに行く」と言葉をかけて行ってしまった。漁夫はぞっとして川天狗じゃないかと思った。その日は不思議と漁があたったという。
.
夏の夜、精進の者2人が湖水の中の島へ鯉取りに行った。投網を打っていると、一人の子供が湖水の中を歩いて渡ってくる。湖水は深くて立って歩ける筈はない。2人が見ていると子供は湖水を横切って行ってしまった。これも川天狗ではないかということである。
.
儀兵衛というじい様 Grandfather Gihei が精進湖へ網打ちに行き、投網をすると、何か大物がかかったような手応えがあった。網を上げようとしても上がらず、かえって湖の中に引き込まれて行く。じい様は怖くなり網を放り出して逃げ帰り、翌朝行って見ると網は湖端に残っているが、底が破れて大きな穴があいていた。川天狗の仕業ではないかという。
