The Gifu Great Buddha
岐阜大仏 Gifu Daibutsu
is a large Buddhist statue located in Shōhō-ji in Gifu City, Gifu Prefecture, Japan. It was conceived by the 11th head priest of Kinpouzan Shōhō temple, Ichyuu, around 1790, in hopes of averting large earthquakes and famines. Ichyuu died in 1815 before it was completed, but his successor, Priest Kohshuu completed it in April 1832, after 38 years of construction. It is one of the three great Buddha portrait statues in Japan.
The Great Buddha of Gifu is unique due to the method of its construction.
First, a central pillar 1.8 meters in circumference was formed from ginkgo tree wood. The Buddha's shape was then formed using bamboo lattices. The bamboo was covered with clay to add shape and many Buddhist scriptures were then placed upon the clay. Finally, the scriptures were covered in lacquer and gold leaf, giving the Buddha the appearance that it has today.

HAIKU

The Buddha Statues of Nara and Haiku
:::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
Haiku by Masaoka Shiki
daibutsu no kata hada no yuki toke ni keri
The snow on one shoulder
of the image of Great Buddha
has thawed.
Tr. Hugh Bygott
on one shoulder
of the Great Buddha
the snow has thawed ...
Translation Discussion by Gabi Greve
.....
The snow has melted
On one shoulder
Of the Great Buddha.
Life is asymmetrical in its essential character, and it is natural for us to rejoice in it, for it is the guarantee of our spiritualfreedom. Even on the Great Buddha, for all the Law of Karma and theinviolable Wheel of the Law, the snow melts irregularly.

Comment by Larry Bole :
Mysterious loveliness!
Buddhist statues
Covered in fallen leaves.
Tr. Blyth
Blyth makes no comment on it, but considering that he only translates one other haiku by Sogetsu-ni, one can conclude that he thought this haiku was the most representative/best of her work.
If you want to compare Sogetsu-ni's haiku quoted above to a haiku by Shiki, how about this one of his, written in 1894:
ote no ue ni ochiba tamarinu tachibotoke
Stone Buddha standing there--
fallen leaves settled
in his hands
tr. Burton Watson
Sogetsu-ni's haiku, for all its loveliness, seems to be about mostly that: loveliness. No one has ever said that the tsukinami poets (and I'm not saying Sogetsu-ni was one) weren't skillful, within their artistic limitations. I suspect that pretty, technically-accomplished haiku were manufactured seemingly effortlessly by the tsukinami poets.
.....
divine mystery
in these autumn leaves that fall
on stony buddhas
Tanrısal gizem;
bu güz düşen yapraklar
taş Buda’lara.

. Matsuo Basho 松尾芭蕉 - Archives of the WKD .
When Basho visited Todaiji in Nara, the temple was still under repair after the destruction wrought by the civil wars of the sixteenth century. The Great Buddha statue was only finally completed in 1692, after the visit by Basho described above, and the statue sat for years in the open like the Great Buddha in Kamakura.
The new Buddha Hall (which is the present one) was finally finished in 1708, and Basho did not live to see this. He grieved for the Buddha in its sad state, for at that time even the head had not been restored yet. Basho saw only the rump of the statue, slowly being covered by the first snow of the year, and he wrote:
初雪やいつ大仏の柱立
hatsu yuki ya itsu Daibutsu no hashira date
first snow!
when will the temple building start
for the Great Buddha?
© Ad G. Blankestijn,

The year's first snowfall!
When are the columns of Daibutsu
Temple to be erected?
Tr. Oseko
Written in December Genroku 2. 元禄2年12月
Daibutsuden, the current Hall for the Great Buddha was built in 1709.
.....
Tr. by David Landis Barnhill :
Visiting the Southern Capital, I yearned for the eventual building of the Buddha Hall
first snow--
for the Great Buddha, when
will the columns be raised?
Barnhill also gives an earlier version of this hokku:
雪悲しいつ大仏の瓦葺き
yuki kanashi itsu Daibutsu no kawarabuki
the snow is sad:
when will the Great Buddha
have its tiled roof?
It took about two years after the visit of Basho until the roof was preliminary fixed and the statue out of danger.
how sad to see it snowing!
when will the Gread Buddha Hall
get its roof tiled?

daibutsu no te ni aru omoi hinataboko
like lying
in the palm of the Great Buddha—
winter sunshine
Takaha Shugyo 鷹羽狩行
Tr. Hoshino Tsunehiko & Adrian Pinnington
I feel like sitting
in the hands of the Great Buddha —
basking in the winter sun
hinataboko ... to take a sunbath in winter, to sit in the winter sunshine
basking in the sun
kigo for all winter
when you sit at the veranda or a sheltered place and feel the warmth of the sunshine.
This haiku is about the feeling (omoi) of the author.

Like all kigo,
these memorial day kigo are embedded in the flow of things, the changes of the seasons ...
We remember a person of the past,
honor him today with a poem and
hope for him to be "alive" in the future of mankind
... in the endless flow of time,
the timeless flow of things ...
(whatever you tend to call it).

.............................. 忌
Memorial Days in a Japanese Saijiki usually end with the word "KI" 忌 and denote the death anniversary of a person. In the text below I have left out the repetition of "Memorial day for" and only added the name of the person and KI.
Some days are calculated according to the Asian Lunar Calendar.
We also have memorial days for a birthday or other special day in the life of a person.
Other words to express a memorial day or memorial service in Japanese:
Ceremony, e 会
Memorial ceremony, goku 御供, goki 御忌, kuyoo 供養
Visiting a temple in memory of a person, mairi 参, moode 詣
Group in memory of a person, koo 講
Kaisan Ki 開山忌 , Memorial Day for the Founder of This Temple, is often used, when his name is not so famous after all but the temple became famous later. In this case, the personal name is sometimes not used.
. kaisan 開山 temple founder
kaisandoo 開山堂 Founder's hall .
This is a saijiki of the most common memorial days, not only of Japan but of other famous people worldwide that have come to notice during the compilation of the World Kigo Database.
It is arranged in alphabetical order of family names or the names they are best known, according to the seasons. Some famous persons can have entries in more than one season, when events in their lifetime are celebrated.
Japanese can have more than one KI name to be remembered by. I will try and list them all.
