That is a great story. I am still rereading Buddha of Infinite Light which has this picture on the cover. I didn’t take this book with me while I was gone, so I read The Teaching of Buddha and am finishing up Buddha by Deepak Chopra that I picked up while I was away.

I was lucky enough to see the above mentioned rupa when I went to Eikando in 2006. I gathered its not always on display.
