Photo: a gargoyle, half in and half out of a shadow itself and projecting from a high point on a church's exterior wall, scowls at the camera as the shadow of a double-cross finial creeps closer to it on an intersecting wall.
It wears nothing but a cap and cape. Its mouth stretches to its maximum size in a snarl. It crouches as if preparing to leap from its stony silence back into screaming life.

This Buddha, from the Khasa Malla kingdom of Nepal, shows him with characteristic lotus wheel marks on his hands and feet, wearing monastic dress, and performing the gesture of touching the earth, a reference to his enlightenment.

This 13th century central Tibetan diminutive figure of an enlightened teacher and possibly a lama has been cast in bronze and gilded. The figure wears an unusual headdress that frames the head but which leaves the hair visible at the back. He wears the robes of a monk with the right shoulder bare, a thick fold across the chest, and a heavy, wide sleeve over the left arm. 
(height: 8.4cm, width: 6.8cm, depth: 3.7cm, weight: 213g)

The figure has a wide face, almost pursed lips and elongated ears. The top of the head has either a Buddha-like cranial protuberance or the finial of the headdress.
The teacher sits cross legged with the left hand open and resting on the lap at an angle, and the right hand in the 'earth-touching' gesture. This gesture mirrors the Shakyamuni Buddha's enlightenment at Bodhgaya.
When other historical figures are accorded this gesture it suggests that the person most probably has become a buddha or an enlightened on in his life.
