The Kamakura Buddha was lodged in a temple until one day a mighty storm brought
the temple down. Then for many years the massive statue stood exposed to sun and
rain and wind and the changes of the weather.
When a priest began to raise funds to rebuild the temple, the statue appeared to
him in a dream and said, “That temple was a prison, not a home. Leave me exposed
to the ravages of life. That’s where I belong.”
