Hosted by filmmaker Yujiro Seki, Carving the Divine TV is a series of Q&A sessions with Buddhist scholars and practitioners. These Q&A sessions explore the basic concepts of Buddhism and the history of Buddhism so that when viewers finally watch Carving the Divine they will get the maximum value of the documentary.  This is a special episode about categories of Butsuzo (Japanese Buddhist Statuary/Statues/sculptures).  We will have an art historian/scholar Mark Schumacher to discuss the category "Myo-o (Wisdom Kings)." For more detail, you can check it : https://youtu.be/rctbIuhA0f8
