In the Presence of Buddhas
Tumblr media
In the presence of an assembly of Buddhas: some lacquered in black, or painted red, some shrouded in a layer of gold leaf - others a combination of all. Evident is the inevitable patina of time on their surface. I wonder, though, about their display - the interiors of Buddhist temples comes to mind where all Buddhas (should) face East. At the same time (and this might be my ignorance betraying me) there is something quite unsettling when taking in their sight.

These standing Buddhas wear a monastic robe with other elements on their garb indicating attributes of an Angkor, Khmer style (1). Most display the gesture of the abhaya mudra ("dispelling fear") where both forearms are outstretched and palms faced in the open - a sign of reassurance, a signal of peace. In attempt to maintain this peace, I walk slowly toward them, ogling at their hands from a respectful distance and closing in on the details on their palms. Energies exude from their hands through circular ripples or lotuses adorned with a reflective surface at its centre. Quite a phantasmal encounter.

Ta Prohm
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ta Prohm is the modern name for the temple at Angkor. There are 72 major temples in the Angkor area, located in Cambodia in the Siem Reap province. The Ta Prohm Temple was built in the late 12th and early 13th centuries. The temple became a Mahayana Buddhist monastery and university, which was founded by the Khmer King, Jayavarman VII, who dedicated Ta Prohm to his mother. Ta Prohm is a traditional Khmer structure consisting of a series of gradually smaller enclosures, with the center tower connecting the smaller towers through passageways. The site was home to more than 12,500 people in the late 12th century, with a population of 800,000 in the surrounding villages. The temple was modified after King Jayavarman VII’s death and later modified by Hindu and Theravada Buddhist kings in accordance with their religious beliefs. The temple was abandoned after the fall of the Khmer Empire in the 17th century. Restoration to conserve the temples of Angkor began in the early 21st century, but it was decided that Ta Prohm would be left in its ruined state. The jungle surrounding the temple merged with the ruins, giving it a new overall appeal to the tourists who frequent the temple. Although the ruins are bound by massive roots from the fig, silk-cotton, and kapok trees, the area was stabilized to make the temple accessible to tourists, which was necessary since Ta Prohm is Angkor’s most visited temple. Ta Prohm was inscribed by UNESCO and placed on the World Heritage list in 1992. The temple includes 260 statues of gods, 39 towers with pinnacles, and 566 different residences. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider was filmed there.
