[Cloud Dragon]
The dragon is one of the eight deities that help carry out the teachings of Buddha and is called the dragon god.
For this reason, at many head temples, a dragon is painted on the ceiling of the Hatto (lecture hall) where the chief priest preaches to the masses, and it represents the rain of the Dharma (the teachings of Buddhism) that falls.
In Chinese mythology, it is protected by four sacred beasts (the Four Gods) that rule the four directions of heaven.
North is Genbu (Tortoise and Snake)
The east is the blue dragon, the south is the vermilion bird
In the west, the divine beast called the white tiger is depicted.
