Together with Seishi Bodhisattva, he serves as a guardian deity beside Amida Tathagata and forms the Amida Triad. The Eleven-Headed Kannon is said to be one of the forms that Kannon Bodhisattva transforms into, and has 10 or 11 faces on his head to quickly find people in distress, attracting people's faith as a transformation body that watches in all directions. The top of the head is decorated with a Buddha image of Amida Tathagata, and each face is a very kind Buddha face that calms people, gets angry, and encourages them. It is said to bring various benefits, such as ten kinds of victories (benefits in this life) and four kinds of rewards (attaining enlightenment after death), and is a popular Kannon Bodhisattva statue along with the Thousand-Armed Kannon. Kannon Bodhisattva is primarily dedicated to saving people who are lost in the asura realm, but he became more widely worshipped during the Nara period and is often enshrined in prayers for prolonging life, curing illnesses, etc.
