Seated Buddha Image

Famous quotes containing the words seated, buddha and/or image:

    “While shepherds watched their flocks by night,
    All seated on the ground,
    The angel of the Lord came down,
    And glory shone around.”
    —Nahum Tate (1652–1715)

    “After Buddha was dead, his shadow was still shown for centuries in a cave—a tremendous, gruesome shadow. God is dead; but given the way of man, there may still be caves for thousands of years in which his shadow will be shown.—And we—we still have to vanquish his shadow, too.”
    —Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    “the focused beam
    folds all energy in:
    the image glares filling all space:
    the head falls and
    hangs and cannot wake itself.”
    —Archie Randolph Ammons (b. 1926)
