My First Buddha

Post by plwk »

phpBB [video]


It is a beautiful, new and unique handmade, original designed and created by a Buddhist organization, soft plush Buddha. Made in different sizes for optimal ‘huggability’, it comes in two models and two color options: Tibet gold or Thai Lotus White. A fun and unique gift to give or receive. It holds a little secret inside, a Tibetan bell that makes an enchanting sound when shaken. More here

Cute and novel huh? But I can imagine the purists going :tantrum:

It looks like they fell way short of their fund raising goal ($680 out of a goal of $15,000) with less than a day left. Hopefully the project will still take off.

Here is the Vajrayana response to my-first-buddha:
Where did you find those? If I wasn't so square I'd get them both.
1.The problem isn’t ‘ignorance’. The problem is the mind you have right now. (H.H. Karmapa XVII @NYC 2/4/18)
2. I support Mingyur R and HHDL in their positions against lama abuse.
3. Student: Lama, I thought I might die but then I realized that the 3 Jewels would protect me.
Lama: Even If you had died the 3 Jewels would still have protected you. (DW post by Fortyeightvows)

Just paste "Mahakala Dunny.jpg" into your favourite search engine and you get lots of results.

I'd love to get one to offer to one of the temples I go to but I dunno how they'd take it.
