Jade Buddha in California

The Jade Buddha for Universal Peace is one of Lama Zopa Rinpoche’s amazing projects. It is a Buddha image recently carved out of the largest jade boulder ever mined. (The image itself is over 8-3/4 feet tall, with its base adding another 4-1/2 feet.) It will end up staying in Australia but is currently making a tour of North America. See it while you can.

It will be in San Jose this month (September 2010).  There is a wonderful video on YouTube showing the whole evolution of the carving:
