The Adido Buddha wears a hood and his hands are tied with meditation seals. He closes his eyes and meditates in the cave in the mountain. Its disciples and waiters are busy cooking tea and chanting sutras. This may be the commonly called “Immortal Mountain” where the Venerable Master lives. The Venerable Master has obtained five kinds of magical powers during his meditation here. Below is the Venerable Kanagawa, holding a rosary necklace. The Venerable went to the Dragon Kingdom and said that he had converted all the dragons to Buddhism. The dragon offered the Venerable a gem and inlaid it with a necklace as a symbol to meet his various wishes. In the picture, the venerable man twisted his body, smiled and stared at the dragon girl. His expression was vividly portrayed, showing the situation of the venerable man accepting the dragon girl’s offering.
