He used to say, what happens by holding the mortal body, which after two days turns into dust.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeeping this advice in mind, none of the disciples built an idol of him, nor painted a picture. It's been a long time like this. Then, when thousands and thousands of people took refuge in the Buddha and were initiated into Buddhism, one day the work of making and painting images of the Buddha began with a new urge. Kings gave money, subjects offered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRenowned artists and sculptors came from the country and abroad. But how did you know, what did the Buddha look like? How are statues and pictures made?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is a careful search for that answer. An unknown history of Vangagara for thousands of years has been narrated by Chitra Dev in a juicy manner like a story. It also contains the life story of Buddha and the story of spreading Buddhism, the names of major Buddhist shrines in India and several rare photographs. An expanded, revised version of Chitra Dev's 'How Buddha looked like' was published.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Ananda Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48329311879418,"sku":"GHB2QKJXDC5A","price":564.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/GHB2QKJXDC5A_1.jpg?v=1723232041","url":"https:\/\/versoz.co.in\/products\/ghb2qkjxdc5a","provider":"VERSOZ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
