In Buddhism, Nabanjonja is regarded as a field of blessings in the last days and is believed to be one of the Arhats who can bestow blessings. Therefore, according to another theory, he is regarded as Bindulojonja, one of the 16 Arhats . This is because he has many similarities in appearance, such as white hair and white eyebrows, and is also said to have similar supernatural powers. ….”
