Daruma meets Emperor Wu and is asked various questions about Buddhism – but his answers fail to satisfy the Emperor. Annoyed, the emperor finally asks him \"Who are you?\" to which the Daruma answers \"I do not know\". Thrown out of the court, the Daruma is believed to have taken refuge in a cave, where he sat in meditation for nine years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlso available in a lighter cotton quality: \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/kokin-denju.com\/products\/i-dont-know-t-shirt\" title=\"I Don't Know - T-Shirt\"\u003eI Don't Know - T-Shirt\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe design \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBold brushstrokes render the phrase “I do not know” in Japanese calligraphy, anchored by a minimal silhouette of a meditating Daruma below. The composition balances strong ink texture with generous negative space for a refined, gallery-ready look – easy to pair with denim, a blazer, or your favorite athleisure. Clean lines and high-contrast detailing keep the kanji legible and striking from across the room.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe artist \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJiun Onkō (1718-1804) was a Japanese Buddhist monk, scholar, and master calligrapher of the Edo period.
