The Dragon King’s Daughter is a character from Buddhist legend. She is a juvenile. She is part animal, dragon. And she is a female. For these three reasons she was told she could not achieve enlightenment in this lifetime. She took this as a direct challenge and achieved enlightenment right then in front of her skeptics. Here she is floating on the waves of the sea and chanting “Nam-myoho-renge-kyo” to show us that We too, can achieve enlightenment just as we are.
