Summary edit

Description
English: ome sort of Jizō but as a monk it seems. From JapanTimes : "Local women usually take care of Jizo statues and provide them with hand-knitted hats and hand-sewn bibs. Glassman suggests that the practice of dressing Jizo statues is related to accruing merit for the afterlife, a common theme in Buddhism. Jizo represents a monk, and when people dress a monk statue, they accrue merit. Dressing Jizo gives people a chance to interact with him". - Source : http://goo.gl/SLH0Hx
