Traditionally, you make a wish and fill in one of the daruma's eyes and, when it comes true, you fill in the other eye. At the end of the year, you bring the figure back to the shrine to burn it.
The temple is piled high with daruma of various sizes and colors, each representing something different. Red is the most common color, which invites general good fortune.
