WW: Aquarium Buddha



(You find the Buddha in the strangest places here in the West. Exhibit A – this disembodied head. If that's not weird enough, figure this: it's intended to be placed at the bottom of an aquarium.

Indeed. You read that right.

I looked around the pet shop a bit more, but found no heads of Christ or Ganesh or Heile Selassie. In fact, no other religious imagery at all.

Just ours.

I'm not offended; it's a chunk of moulded concrete. But mystified? Yeah. Yet again.)
