https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maitreya https://www.hozanji.com/Hozanji.html The other day, with my best friend, we planned to visit Kurama Temple, because Elena/Miyoko was so much trying hard for the good of humanity!! so I’d also like to do something!! At first, we planned to go to Kurama Temple, but on the bullet train (shinkansen) around Nagoya, I thought, strangely, that we had to go to Mt. Ikoma first! My friend is very familiar with history and geography, so we had a rent-a-car driving and went to Ikoma Shoten temple/shrine (its main enshrined deity is Ganesha). I felt this shrine was super-hilarious/cheerful as well as magnificent.. And.. I was astonished to find a beautiful MIROKUBOSATSU Buddhist image, (maybe almost all Japanese love…) was practicing/training hard(mountain ascetic practices)?? , sitting AMONG/IN the mountainside.. for such a long time?? I’m too impressed with what this BOSATSU has been up to, (who said to have come here from the future long after to help us…like Elena??) praying for us for such a long time outdoors. This Hozan Temple(宝山寺) is a super-lucky one, and like a law of attraction, many people came here and were said to have made money after praying here. “Your wish will be granted”.. as Elena said before Nara Great Buddha….Anyway, Ikoma Shoten was such an incredible temple/shrine..
