Zochoten (Sk: Virudhaka) is one of the four Guardian Kings (Buddhist deities) and protects the southern front of the holy Mt. Sumeru (Jp: Shumisen), leading a group of warriors. At Buddhist temples, you often find a Zochoten statue in the southwest corner of the shumidan, or the raised platform where the main Buddha statue is placed. The heavily armored body, the furor on his face, a halberd in his right hand, with the left hand resting on the hips, trampling on a demon, Zochoten is the very image of a fierce warrior-protector.
