This image shows a painted depiction of the “sleeping Buddha” – not his death, but his release. He lies recumbent on a bed strewn with flowers, while countless followers in monks’ robes bow their heads against folded hands in prayer. Above float an astral image of the Buddha glowing with a halo, a sky full of flowers, and celestial beings celebrating. Unattributed artist. Courtesy of “Buddha Weekly” online.
