How do you pronounce Rikudō Sennin?
Say it ri·ku·dō sen·nin (六道仙人). Japanese has no strong word stress: give each syllable about the same length and weight, and keep the vowels short and clear — a as in “father,” i as in “machine,” u as in “food,” e as in “met,” o as in “go.” A vowel with a bar over it (ō, ū) is long: hold it for two beats.
What characters make up Rikudō Sennin — Sage of Six Paths?
六道仙人 — 六, then 道, then 仙, then 人. Core meanings from the KANJIDIC2 dictionary database: 六 six; 道 road-way · street; 仙 hermit · wizard; 人 person.
Can I use the copied kanji anywhere?
Yes — it's standard Unicode text and works on any modern OS. One caution before you print or ink it: make sure the font is a Japanese one. Some fonts render the same characters in Chinese style, and the difference shows.
