tons


Thai temples have lots of gold too, but this one in Yangon
has really a lot. It's not all gold leaf.
When it's real gold you know it: a really pure effect
despite all the stuff associated with the getting of it,
historically speaking ~ greed, avarice, envy et al.
The pigeons have their own take on it.

I saw these statues in Kyoto, but cameras were forbidden.
It was like being in one of the heaven worlds.
