You need not consider yourself a Buddhist to procure a likeness of the Buddha for your home or place of business. The Buddha is recognized as a symbol of peace of mind. A glimpse of the sublime Buddha, with his eyes gently closed and his lips curved into a subtle smile, may provide inspiration to deepen your own practice of inner peace.

Weekends Are Fun Party Linky says
Thanks for stopping by today and for adding my party to your lnky list, (Great list by the way).
I love your buddas, while traveling in China a few years ago we had the opportunity to visit a Buddist Temple, in Beize Temple in Inner Mongolia. The buddas in the temple were very large and beautiful. The one I am enjoying that you share is the one in the window, I think number 8, on the stack of books.
Enjoy your weekend, Karren
PS I have followed your Pinterest boards

Our front room is Asian themed and I have a glass Buddha head in there. Love the variety you showed here.

I love the statue in the second photo! I think there is so much universal wisdom in the Buddhist teachings. You have inspired me to look for a Buddha statue to display in my own home.
