Buddhas and Bodhisattvas

An important way in which Buddhists demonstrate their respect is by paying reverence to Buddha and Bodhisattva statues. In doing so, however, Buddhists do not worship statues as actual incarnations invested with supernatural powers. Instead, the physical images function as symbolic reminders of the particular Buddha’s or Bodhisattva’s inherent virtues and ideals which devotees wish to cultivate within themselves. Statues are also a medium for concentration and inspiration. The following are statues that can be found in IBPS Sweden in Rosersberg.
