          Seijuji Temple, had trouble with athma and her son wanted to cure her then
          he attended Dai Aragyo at Nakayama Hokekyoji Temple (the 100 days asceticism
          in cold season) and he had got incantations to cure asthma. Only from 6

          Once upon a time, a hunter shot a pregnant monkey. Since then the three
          generations of elder sons of his descendants had been deafs. Then a family
          member asked a fortune teller. The fortune teller told that it was the
          curse of the pregnant monkey. So the family carved a statue of the monkey
          to dedicate, after that nothing has happened with the family. And the statue
          has became the guardian deity of Eer Diseases called The god monkey Ochika
          since then. The statue is dedicated in Kenponzan Seijuin Temple.
