About 20 minutes north of me there is a temple in Princeton, NJ. The New Jersey Vihara Buddhist Meditation Center. It serves the Theravada Sri Lankan community. Behind their building is an amazing 30 ft. (10m) statue of a Snow White Buddha. It is bathed in lights at night. It has become a roadside attraction and been featured in magazines and websites. There is also a path through a wooded area with sign posts quoting the Dhammapada that really struck me. If you're ever in the area you gotta go.

I was at the art museum today. Found a Japanese Buddha from Dogen’s time. Lacquered and gilded wood with crystal inlays.

Thank you for posting all the beautiful pictures.
I enjoy, getting a glimpse of your lives.
Attached is a picture of a 6,5cm diameter old, wooden, lacquered 'toy', I bought for myself.
If you guess, what's inside, I'll show a picture of it...
(hopefully, someone guesses right, I am really eager to show ;-) )
Gassho,
Kotei sat/lah today.

Should've been prepared for this, when asking you to look through the shiny surface of the things around.
Of course, you're right.
Here is your price

(The Sanskrit character on the lid of this 19th century Japanese Zushi reads 'Shaka' (The historical Buddha) )
The imho unusual mudra mix caught my attention. Looks like a mix of teaching and fearlessness mudras.
I hope, this practice is teaching me fearlessness.
Thank you,

When a drop of water falls in the ocean,
When a speck of dust falls on the groud.
At that moment the drop of water is no longer a drop of water, it becomes the ocean.
And the speck of dust is no longer a speck of dust, it becomes the entire earth.
