RE: MarketFriday - initiated by @dswigle - Buddhist Statue Shopping !!
Congratulations! Your post was selected by the @dropahead Curation Team (dCT)
It surely was a pretty nice experience getting to see all kind of Buddha statues all around. I am curious about one thing, what is the history behind the statue that has many arms? I have seen it a lot but I dunno what it represents.

I was honestly overwhelmed i did not know there were so many different types of Buddhas in this world the one you are asking about with the many arms they call that one , Bodhisattva who hears the cries of the world and embodies the compassion of the Buddhas. When it sees and hears the suffering of others it respond to that suffering. Like the body of all Buddhas.
Indeed Buddhism is quite an interesting religion, do you know a book you thin fits a total newbie like me? I would like to get more familiar with Buddhism concepts.
I would just google Buddhas and read up on the ones you take a liking to , as for books i can't really help you on that :)
