The Painted Doors of The Twenty-Five Bodhisattvas Welcoming Descent 〈Late Kamakura to Nanbokucho Period〉

（It is extremely rare for all the painted doors to be displayed, making this the first full display in several decades.）

These painted doors were originally attached to the front and sides of a miniature shrine that housed a statue of Master Shandao. The paintings vividly depict the Twenty-Five Bodhisattvas, including Kannon Bodhisattva and Seishi Bodhisattva, who are attendants of Amida Buddha.

The Twenty-Five Bodhisattvas Welcoming Descent 〈Kamakura Period〉

This welcoming descent painting depicts the Twenty-Five Bodhisattvas, excluding Kannon Bodhisattva and Seishi Bodhisattva. It is believed to have originally hung behind a sculptural representation of the Amida Triad. The overall composition is calm, with little movement, showing the serene descent of the bodhisattvas toward the viewer.

Amida's Welcoming Descent 〈Kamakura Period〉

A solitary standing figure of Amida Buddha is depicted on a split-petal lotus, facing slightly downward to the left. Although there are no welcoming clouds drawn at the figure's feet, the body's orientation suggests that this was intended as a welcoming descent painting. Among the many Kamakura-period depictions of the solitary Amida Buddha's descent, this work stands out as unique.。

Flame-Jewel Shaped Relic Container
（Relics of Honen） 〈Nanbokucho Period〉

This relic container was recently discovered in the Zenrin-ji treasure repository. While the characteristic flames on all four sides and the wavering, three-dimensional appearance of the flames resemble the style of the Kamakura period, the somewhat less tense design and the shape of the jewel suggest it is a work from the Nanbokucho period. The relics inside are inscribed in red with the name 'Honen.'
