Our 100th Post - the Symbolism and Meaning of the Buddha's Hands

There is a zen saying "Can you hear the sound of one hand clapping" and this seems a fitting introduction to the landmark 100th post of the Buddha's Face blog. I've spent nearly a year working on this and our companion sites and during this time I have been educated,inspired and motivated to keep up the work and continue the journey.

For as the Buddha said a journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step and there are only two rules in life one is to start something and the second having started it then continue to the very end. Such is the journey of the Buddha's Face.

I would like to point my readers to our latest offering in the Buddhism 101 project over at the main merchant website The Buddha's Face . This is an article of the symbolism and meaning of the Buddha's hands.

Thanks for stopping by.

Love and compassion

Ian
