Disrespecting The Buddha’s Image — An Incense Dispenser!
We happened to be at T.J. Maxx in Gilford, NH yesterday
and I happened to see this.
An incense holder in the shape of the Buddha’s head.
It had been reduced from $4.99 to $4.00.
I bought it just to get it off the shelf.
T.J. Maxx should be ASHAMED!
There are HOLES drilled in the Buddha’s head!

Here is the tag that is attached to the Buddha’s head
with the name of the company that had it made.
I am no longer a Buddhist BUT I do not think that this is right.
I can’t see them doing this to the image of any other religious leader.
Not sure what Buddhists, worldwide, might want to do about this.

You know Gothima Buddha never claimed to be a God or wanted to be worshipped?
And that Buddhists are basically athiest?
These are the facts.
So we’re the offence against Buddhism is in creating a figure at all, which contrary to Buddha’s wishes, has always been done.
