Learn more about Borobudor, the biggest
Buddhist temple in the world. Read article below:
The temple of Borobudur is biggest Buddhist temple in the world: there are
larger complexes elsewhere (India, China, Thailand, Vietnam, Japan Cambodia)
but none of the individual temples themselves are as big as Borobudur. Covering
an area on the top of a hill that's about 100m by 100m, this massive stone
construction is built in a series of stone layers, getting progressively smaller
until you get to the top; think of a square-bottomed pyramid that's made up
of thick stone layers.
Around each stone layer is an open corridor, smothered with stone sculptures and stone reliefs everywhere you look. There are three stone layers in the temple, representing the three divisions in Buddhist cosmology, namely the world of desires, the transitional sphere, and the sphere of perfection and enlightenment (Buddha means "awakened one" or "enlightened one").
The idea of Borobudur is that walking through the stone corridors and layers represents the journey through life, from the world we live in to enlightenment, and students of Buddhism would walk through the stone monument as a way to appreciate the philosophy behind their religion. In all honesty, unless you're a Buddhist expert it's going be less a spiritual journey and more a cultural one, and the thousands of stone reliefs and stone sculptures will mean precious little, but that matters little. For it's the scale of this whole exercise that's astounding. The stone reliefs alone would stretch for three kilometres if laid end to end. There are 1460 individual narrative stone reliefs and 1212 decorative stone reliefs. Click here for more Asian Buddha Head Arts from Indonesia. |
