The author, a cross-cultural expert, explain mysterious features and figures of oriental god of war, Asura. Despite of his story and myth, the way his statue appears is nothing violent. It looks sad and thoughtful, instead. Other gods of fight appear to be mannish, masculine, fierce, violent, and angry. Why only Asura was built in the way it appears today. The author tries to approach the mystery 1900 years ago.
