An Arhat, as I've mentioned before, is a disciple of the Buddha who has achieved enlightenment. They are often seen in groups of 16 or 18, as in Episodes 057 and 058, but less commonly in groups of 500.

I won't try to introduce to all of them, but we'll meet a few--and talk about where they live--in this episode of

TEMPLE TALES!
