Within the temple, towards the back, a huge up of Buddha are enshrined importantly likely, it just, some impact, is presence.

However, Buddha statues of real and have, that picture the other hand, has been deformed too, felt also as reflecting different things.

I have taken of Masatoshi Naito called "Auntie explosion!", And itaconate of Osorezan of Aomori. In the narrow frame, itaconate also including, the power of the women of the middle-aged, has exploded.

Its presence is too strong, but it seems to have projected, human, a figure essential.
