The
Eighteen Lohans
The
Lohans' Place in Buddhism
Lohans
are well-known for their great wisdom, courage
and supernatural power. Due to their abilities
to ward off the evil, Lohans have became guardian
angels of the Chinese Buddhist temple and there
in the main hall standing guard are the ever-present,
indomitable-looking 18 Lohan figures, sometimes
accompanied by 500 or more lesser Lohans.
