Igusa, or the rush is a plant which tatami, Japanese mattings, are made of. This piece comes from Reihoji, a temple in Ome near Tokyo, which was one of the headquarters of komuso. According to the tradition, a komuso belonging to this temple composed the present piece developing an inspiration which had been given to hime while going through a rush field. Among the religious shakuhachi music of the Fukeshu there are many that bear titles containing reibo at the end. Its literal meaning is "the yearning for the bell"". Tradition says that Fuke Zenji, the founder of the Fukeshu, used to ring a bell in his hands when he walked around the streets to propagate. So, reibo was used at first in remembrance of the founder of the sect. But, later, they came to use it very commonly in the titles, the original significance being lost gradually.
