Mikaeri Amida, or the "Looking-Back Amida," is a distinctive representation of Amida Buddha enshrined at Zenrin-ji (Eikan-do) temple in Kyoto, depicted with his head turned over his shoulder as if glancing back at those who follow him. This iconography is traditionally associated with the legend of the priest Eikan, whom Amida is said to have turned to encourage during a moment of religious practice, reflecting themes of compassion and guidance toward the Pure Land. The figure remains an object of veneration within Jodo (Pure Land) Buddhist devotion, particularly in contexts of afterlife aspiration and memorial rites.
