Summary
[edit]DescriptionAnanda Temple, North Shrine, 0149.jpg |
English:
Ananda was constructed around 1105, and restored in 1783. It is built on the plan of a Greek cross (i.e. with four equal arms), with one major image in each of the four interior shrines. The statues are about 9' tall, and made of gilded wood. According to Strachan, they represent the four so-called "historical" buddhas of the present age. The first three of these buddhas are legendary. The fourth and latest, Siddhartha Gautama, lived from 563 to 483 BC and is the founder of Buddhism.
