Description

I loved visiting This Temple with
BP's Very Own Mary Robison!! :)
I hope to go again very soon.

In The Buddhist Religion The Lighting of Candles
In The Front of Their Temples
Show Respect for the Teachings of Buddha.
Buddha says : "Thousands of Candles can be lit from One Single Candle. Just as a candle cannot burn without fire, men cannot live without a spiritual life.
Candles are also used as a form of meditation and through staring at the light a person can melt away the stresses of the day.
Celebrations and offerings also include Candles For
The Buddhist Religion.

First photo at the Buddhist Temple, and you hit it out of the ballpark, Pom/BB! I have NO idea where you stood when you captured this beautifully composed scene. It will be very interesting to see what each of us was drawn to photograph at the Temple. Something like the blind mice interpreting the elephant by touching parts of his body. Let the Adventure continue! #11153027

I really have a feel of the view and the beauty of this place, SSSLala.
Splendidly captured with a great sense of details and dof.
It looks like a wonderful place to visit. #11156106

Thank you so much SSSister. It was the most quiet, peaceful, amazing place. Mary and I respectfully made our way around to observe and record the beauty. It was an awesome day that I will never forget. Sure do wish you had been there, too, but Mary and I agreed that you most certainly were there with us in spirit! #11394963
