Not long after he became head priest, Kōchō gathered a team of amateurs to begin sculpting small statues of 'rakan' (羅漢 aka 'arhats'), the 500 disciples present when Buddha first expounded the Flower Sutra.
The initial goal was 500 statues.

Kōchō first created a ceiling painting of Buddha's 10 Great Disciples (十大弟子), replacing a dragon mural (painted by Kanō Tan'yū 狩野探幽 1602-74) that had been completely destroyed in the Meiji period.
He then turned his attention to crafting an army of statues!

Between 1922-25 the temple was moved from Higashiyama -where successive floods had done untold damage to its old buildings and treasures- to the foothills of Mt Atago.
In spite of this, typhoons in 1945 and 1950 tore through the temple and it came close to complete closure.

😇THE 1200 STONE DISCIPLES😇
At the foot of Mt Atago (愛宕山) is the small temple of Otagi Nenbutsu-ji (愛宕念仏寺).
Although it has a history stretching back over 1000 years, the temple might have faded away to nothing were it not for the creation of 1200 statues.
