Tour This Tranquil Buddhist Island Temple of Giant Statues

Sad to see how unintelligent majority off humanity really are so superstitious and do not follow the evidence.. How can you worship sticks and stones and other earthly materials that which you carve with your own hands.. Why do they worship that which does not benefit them neither can do any harm to their enemies. You leave the one and only real God Allah who created everything in the heavens and earth and worship that which depends on your own hands or tounge(superstitious stories). Please wake up and stop worshipping idols stop following blindly like blind sheep your forefathers and ancestors. They were not educated neither they were guided.. this generation is more educated and have more access to real knowledge will You Still Believe milk is green just because your ancestors used to believe that reminds me of the following verses of the Holy Quran وَإِذَا قِيلَ لَهُمُ اتَّبِعُوا مَا أَنْزَلَ اللَّهُ قَالُوا بَلْ نَتَّبِعُ مَا أَلْفَيْنَا عَلَيْهِ آبَاءَنَا ۗ أَوَلَوْ كَانَ آبَاؤُهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ شَيْئًا وَلَا يَهْتَدُونَ When it is said to them: \Follow what Allah has sent down.\" They say: \"Nay! We shall follow what we found our fathers following.\" (Would they do that!) Even though their fathers did not understand anything nor were they guided? (Al-Baqarah 2:170)" وَمَثَلُ الَّذِينَ كَفَرُوا كَمَثَلِ الَّذِي يَنْعِقُ بِمَا لَا يَسْمَعُ إِلَّا دُعَاءً وَنِدَاءً ۚ صُمٌّ بُكْمٌ عُمْيٌ فَهُمْ لَا يَعْقِلُونَ And the example of those who disbelieve, is as that of him who shouts to the (flock of sheep) that hears nothing but calls and cries. (They are) deaf, dumb and blind. So they do not understand. (Al-Baqarah 2:171) And another place in Quran (sura ambia (prophets) /) Ibrahim (Abraham) asked the idol worshippers.... 52. When he said to his father and his people: "What are these images, to which you are devoted?" 53. They said:"We found our fathers worshipping them." 54. He said: "Indeed you and your fathers have been in manifest error." 55. They said: "Have you brought us the truth, or are you one of those who play about?" 56. He said: "Nay, your Lord is the Lord of the heavens and the earth, Who created them and of that I am one of the witnesses. 57. "And by Allah, I shall plot a plan (to destroy) your idols after you have gone away and turned your backs." 58. So he broke them to pieces, (all) except the biggest of them, that they might turn to it. 59. They said: "Who has done this to our aliha (gods)? He must indeed be one of the wrong-doers." 60. They said: "We heard a young man talking (against) them who is called Ibrahim (Abraham)." 61. They said: "Then bring him before the eyes of the people, that they may testify." 62. They said: "Are you the one who has done this to our gods, O Ibrahim (Abraham)?" 63. [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said: "Nay, this one, the biggest of them (idols) did it. Ask them, if they can speak!" 64. So they turned to themselves and said: "Verily, you are the Zalimun (polytheists and wrong-doers)." 65. Then they turned to themselves (their first thought and said): "Indeed you [Ibrahim (Abraham)] know well that these (idols) speak not!" 66. [Ibrahim (Abraham)] said: "Do you then worship besides Allah, things that can neither profit you, nor harm you? 67. "Fie upon you, and upon that which you worship besides Allah! Have you then no sense?" I pray to the true one and only God Allah guides us all. Ameen Love and Peace... Just to let the unintelligent Haters know , I do not come back to my comments I just write and move on and wish the BEST🌹

[@kev4850]

you guys should visit Laos...seems like a nice place

[@烏梨師斂]

The odd thing is that these are mostly Mahayana saints

[@hub6490]

Worship of Guanyin in Thailand come from Chinese immigrants century ago, I guess common peoples in that time didn't concern that what is Mahayana what is Theravada. In case of Maitreya I think both Mahayana and Theravada have this belief.

[@ahdumbs1161]

A) first statue is Budai, a Mahayana-Chan Buddhist monk, who in SOME Mahayana sects and few Theravadins believe is an incarnation of the BODHISATTVA to come when the Dhamma of our age is no more, Maitreya. He will only become a Buddha when the teachings of this Buddha disappear and we are meant to learn the Maitreya dharma. B) “Budai” is a word that refers to essentially a satchel or bag carried on a pole; he was known to always have gifts for children and hence why he “always had a Budai with him” 3) the argument about how many Buddhas there are were/will be/are is a moot point because to Theravadins, Siddhartha is one of a finite number of Buddhas, there being a number (again depends, can be like 27-38) having existed before his time. To the Mahayana, there are thousands of Bodhisattvas and even Buddhas from alternate universes.

Likewise, monotheism was invented by the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaton (1350 - 1334 BC) who was the first to declare that there was only one god, the Sun God, Aton (Moses was an Atonist priest). In Ancient Egyptian and Greek mythology, Osiris and Dionysus were killed and arose from the dead many centuries before Christians stole that narrative.
