Dharma Drum Singapore 法鼓山新加坡护法会

 
 
 
Serene, smiley Original Buddha image from rented temple shrine
The familiar Buddha and Guanyin images had also moved from Duxton premises.

Dharma Drum Singapore had moved to 38 Carpmael Road S429781,
Nice serene environment.

2 bustops from Paya Lebar MRT.
But easier to walk from exit from Paya Lebar MRT station towards Spore Post, cross the road to Tanjong Katong Complex, cross the road after and turn left to the Haig Road Hawker centre direction and to pathway between Private housing estate & HDB blocks, near a physical exercise/playground area, one will see DDM signboard near the rear gate.

Yungang Grottoes 云岗石窟

Our first pilgrim stop for the China trip ~ Yungang Grottoes  云岗石窟 (represention of Buddhist Cave Art from the 5th & 6th century) is located at Datong city, Shanxi Province of China.

 

 
 
 

 Original idea of Western suits with ties originated from here since 5-6th century?


 
Beautiful, Majestic!
 
More  conservation work in progress while we were there and not all caves are open, hopefully, the beautiful historic site continues to be maintained well and brings us back to the historic art of the past centuries...
