RE: MarketFriday - initiated by @dswigle - Buddhist Statue Shopping !!
What a unique entry. Not taking so many pictures would be virtually impossible. Hard to believe there are more around the corner.
I am so culturally dumb. I understood Budda was a very strong influence but did not know they influenced and represented specific or different facets of life. Lots to learn.
Would they ever sell all of these?
And here is an American curiosity question.....i don't know why I thought this, but do people judge by your Budda statues? I imagine there are commercial ones, cheap ones, simple and eloborate statues. Is there any form of status with which Buddas you display and of what their value it is?
I am not a shopper. Put me in a place like this and I would turn around in fear. Give me one good Budda shop and I'll find one I want.
However, if they have an Earring Heaven there, let me know.
Buddhist is a religion of true facts no one judges you but if you treat Buddhist the wrong way there is a thing they call Karma and it will come back and bit you if you do wrong by others. Out of all religion i do love Buddhist because it eventuates from true facts.
People buy Buddhas for all sorts of reasons it depends what they want and believe in , it can be for good luck , good fortune , good health and the list goes on. Price rang from 10 us to 20k us depending how big you want it and what metals you like it made in.
Peace and Joy to you !!
