The 10,000 Buddha Relics Collection Exhibit
I'll meditate and leave relics.
The 10,000 Buddha Relics Collection includes sacred remains of the historical Shakyamuni Buddha as well as tens of thousands of brightly colored crystals said to have been found among his and others' cremation ashes. These "relics," known as shariras in Sanskrit, will be on display with those of his family and close male and female disciples. Many people experience powerful energy when meditating in the presence of the Buddha’s relics. Those who are sincere will receive what they wish.
