On the Nalanda Trail

29 October 2007 No Comment

I would be dropping by to take a look a this exhibition featuring Buddhist art drawn from India, China and Southeast Asia, including bronze and stone sculptures of Buddha, bodhisattvas, goddesses and deities. The special highlight of the “On the Nalanda Trail” exhibition is that they will also exhibit bone relics from the only known archaeological recovery that can be linked directly to Buddha himself. I wonder if this is what Buddhists call “she li zi“…

I am not Buddhist but I like to explore readings and exhibitions of religious and cultural nature.. Especially if they are held in museums… I love that mystical, “time-stands-still” feeling of museums.
