Daikon-daki coincides with the day Buddha reached enlightenment.
A monk from the temple called Jizen (慈禅上人), living some time in the Kamakura period, would draw the Sanskrit character for 'Buddha' on the end of radishes and distribute them as a prayer for good health.Although many temples host 'daikon-daki' festivals throughout the winter, the origin of each celebration differs from place to place.
