RE: A glimpse of Bangkok

in #travel5 years ago

I always find the traditions of various cultures interesting, even though I am no a fan f tradition much at all. Do you ever wonder what Buddha would think of all the reverence paid to him as a person who wished people not listen to him out of reverence?

A lot of great shots in the mix.

It looks like the kind of place many people get accidentally electrocuted.

Sort:  

I might be wrong or not fully understand the meaning of things, but somehow I never understood in any religion the need of building monuments, churches or temples while so beautiful, filled with traditions and with good intentions. Yes, I have wondered and something tells me he would rather people sit somewhere in nature with themselves in mind instead of golden temples with his image in center.

Still appreciating the beauty of them though, hehe

Thank you :)

I was thinking the same when my head bumped in them while walking on the sidewalk for the first time and then the one day when it was raining with lighting in the distance.

I have never understood it either. People talk about "the house of God" and then go into a building made by the hands of men and governed by the rules of men - while nature waits outside.
