Gautam Buddha at Peace Pagoda Darjeeling!
Peace Pagoda, Darjeeling or Darjeeling Peace Pagoda is one of the Peace Pagodas designed to provide a focus for people of all races and creeds to help unite them in their search for world peace. It is located in the town of Darjeeling in the Indian state of West Bengal. Like most of the other Peace Pagodas, it was built under the guidance of Nichidatsu Fujii (1885–1985), a Buddhist monk from Japan and founder of the Nipponzan-Myōhōji Buddhist Order.

Quinta dos Loridos, where the impressive Buddha Eden - the largest oriental garden in Europe, can be found. The oriental garden with around 35 hectares of land was created as a reaction to the destruction of the Buddhas of Banyan, in which one of the greatest acts of cultural barbarity took place, erasing masterpieces of late-period Gandhara art.

The Leshan Giant Buddha is the largest stone Buddha in the world, standing at 71 meters (233 feet) tall. The statue was built between 713 and 803 and is carved out of a cliff face of Cretaceous red sandstone. The Buddha is impressive to view from the bottom, and even more impressive when viewed from the top.
Reclining Buddhas are commonplace in Thailand and also here in Laos.
A reclining Buddha is an image that represents Buddha lying down and is a major iconographic theme in Buddhist art. It represents the historical Buddha during his last illness, about to enter the parinirvana. He is lying on his right side, his head resting on a cushion or relying on his right elbow, supporting his head with his hand.
This pattern seems to have emerged at the same time as other representations of the Buddha in the Greco-Buddhist art of Gandhara.

A friend had given me seeds close to 10 years ago... I have two seeds that took and are doing well... still waiting for it to flower!!
Jatropha podagrica is a succulent plant in the family Euphorbiaceae. It is native to the tropical Americas but is grown as an ornamental plant in many parts of the world due to its unusual appearance.
The Buddha belly plant is a poisonous plant. The fruit and sap of the plant are toxic, so be sure to keep the plant away from small children and pets. You can do this by placing it on a windowsill that's high off the ground or in a garden that's reasonably fenced off.
Barrie... your the only person I know that has one... how is yours doing??
Buddha Garden will be back on June 4th!
Many have asked me for this SIM; i am working hard to give a completely new SIM immersion.
The land will be 4 times bigger.
Buddha is leading me to the end of this project to give you a mystical and unforgettable experience.
I can't wait to show it to you!
Enjoy.

Buddha Shakyamuni
1500 - 1600, Ming dynasty, cast and gilded bronze
Shakyamuni was the historical Buddha, born as an Indian prince in about 485 BC. This figure represents the crucial moment in his life when he asked the earth to bear witness that he had resisted the attacks of Mara, the goddess of evil. His right hand extends downward to touch the soil, a symbolic gesture known as chudiyin (bhumisparsha mudra).
