The Hindu Buddhist Temple at Tai Chung

The Hindu Buddhist Temple at Taichung Taiwan.

It was a magnificent temple located on a hill top which house The Lord Buddha. The design was according to the Hindu Buddhist  concept but fused with local Taoism.

There was four big statute of the gods of fire , wind . thunder and lightning  holding up the roof of the temple painted in gold and the front door was greet by a laughing Buddha and there are statute of the 18 Lohan guiding the Buddha.

The statute of the Buddha was beautifully designed and your heart will melt after seeing it . Tears almost fill my eyes after seeing this magnificent statute.

The temple also house a school to further the teachings of Buddha and the view from the main door looking out was a big open space overseeing the hills and the fields. An Incredible achievement indeed.

I would like to salute the commitment of these Buddhist gurus  who can devote their lives to serve one purpose and that is to spread the teaching of Buddha.

Namaste.
