Mizaru, who sees no evil, covering its eyes

Kikazaru, who hears no evil, covering its ears, and

Iwazaru, who speaks no evil, covering its mouth.


It’s hard to date the first appearance of the three wise monkeys. They have been brought into
Buddhism by a monk in the 7th century. According to the legend, this monk, while he was travelling, was escorted by a monkey. His name was Xuanzang, one of the most important translators of Buddhist texts in China. He left China for India when he realized that it was time to seek more Buddhist texts to bring to China.
