The face of Buddha, praying silently in a stupa.
there are 70 stupas around the 9th level of Borobudur, representing the 2nd to last level before reaching Nirvana.
The stupa (seen behind this buddha), represents an upside-down rice bowl... signifying the fast that lasted until he reached enlightenment
i'm thinking,,, my view would be pretty blurry if i fasted that long too! just kidding... Posted by Picasa
