Sennin (仙人)

Immortals. Based on Chinese depictions of the Seven Daoist Immortals, Japanese Sennin (often hermit immortals) can be depicted as human figures or referenced by one of their associated attributes: a fan, a sword, a gourd, two castanets/tablets, a basket of flowers, a drum made of bamboo tubes and rods, a flute, and a lotus flower (Arts 1983:78; Gorham 1971:215).
