Dear Lady yawares,

This is a very beautiful collection indeed! I especially like your Medicine Buddha. Though I practice pretty much an exclusive Theravada tradition these days, I have a special place in my heart for the absolutely beautiful iconography of the Mahayana tradition.

I should say, also, I've been rather absent here of late...I've asked myself "should I play on Dhamma Wheel, or should I meditate?" Of late, I've been making the right decision, hence my general absence from here. However, I saw your post and your lovely Buddha collection and had to say hello.

Much metta to you and yours,

I much prefer "the lady" to "the monster", so I shall take "the lady's" advice and play more and also join Dharma Wheel!

Thank you again for these lovely photos...so inspiring! Unfortunately, I doubt I will be able to visit all of them in one lifetime, so it is good we have this modern technology to experience them, no?

Oh, I just noticed the little bats flying above the thousand-pettled lotus...love that!

Metta,

Hello official birthday greeter! I still am yet to join Dharma Wheel, but it's only because I am lazy (there, I said it!) But I can type my birthday for you, September 20!

But, I promise, this weekend I will join for sure.
