In ancient times, a violent and evil demon named Ganesha (Binayaka King), the son of the god Shiva and an elephant-headed human being, was causing harm to people. Therefore, Eleven-faced Kanzeon Bodhisattva incarnated as an elephant-headed goddess Binayaka, invited Ganesha to swear to convert to Buddhism, and then united and united with him to subdue (subdue) this god's violence. After that, Ganesha became a benevolent deity and was called Kankiten or Shoten, and is said to have become the protector of Buddhism. In general, the twin statue of two heavens, an elephant-headed female heaven and a male heaven embracing, is called Kangiten. In Japan, he is believed to be the god of marital harmony, matchmaking, and the blessing of children, and is also believed to be the god of prosperous business, protection from disasters, good fortune, and many other benefits in this world.
