Can you count how many Buddhist statues are pictured in this photo? We might not know the exact number, but the goal number is actually 84,000! đŸ˜² Ichibata Yakushi Temple in Shimane Prefecture is aiming to embody the Yakushi Pure Land by enshrining 84,000 Buddhist statues, and is still seeking donations of additional statues! We hope they reach their goal soon! Thank you @kunihito_ohtsubo for this amazing shot!
