Living
with images of the Buddha
is very helpful at this time. The Buddha helps remind us who we are
in our true nature. They help us anchor the Beam of Oneness and Compassion.
We don't have to be a Buddhist to live with a Buddha. The Buddha is
so vast and universal, they are here for all of us.
Buddhas come to us now in new ways. Not as a representation of any religion, but as a representation of our inherent Oneness. They are not here to "worship", but to remind us to embody their qualities ourselves. I find that living with my Buddhas is very empowering. They constantly remind me of my own vastness and Buddha nature. I live with them as respectful allies and it feels very good. I feel more empowered within myself. And they do strongly anchor a sense of tranquillity and serenity which is something I greatly welcome within my busy life.
I have so enjoyed and benefited from living with Buddhas, that I have found some special ones to share with you. The Buddha Gallery will keep adding to its collection, so if you don't find your right Buddha now, please return.
Buddhas like to be communicated with and treated respectfully. Find a nice place for your Buddha. Keep him clean and dusted. Flowers love to grow near Buddhas; just watch them flower like never before! Children love Buddhas and animals like to sleep near them. Cleaning your Buddha, decorating the space around him, talking to him, will all make the energies stronger.
