Buddha’s secret
I completely forgot to post photos of that naughty Buddha statue I got in Pakistan for my husband. A couple of people expressed interest in seeing it, so I’m sharing. I wouldn’t recommend clicking the jump if you’re at work. Or if you’re a prude.
Here’s the big guy, sitting pretty on my kitchen counter:
Check out what he’s sitting on:
Them’s my typin’ fingers. Yep. I’m real.
This next one’s kind of blurry, but it’s the best I could do with such glossy subject matter and no natural sunlight. Close up:
See that? The guy on the right is sucking on the lady’s (Stretch Armstrong-ish) boob while fingering her. And she’s looking at you and smiling. No shit. KafirBoy shat his pants and dissolved into a fit of giggles when I gave it to him. Success!
That’s fracking awesome! It should be a law that every Buddha has to have a hot sex scene hidden under it.

That is the happiest Buddha ever. He’s got plenty of reason to smile.

You got this from Pakistan? Wow. It’s rather progressive. Is it made in Pakistan?
Blimey! That’s one frigging gift. I feel rather envious. :-)

There is a Buddhist chant that goes:
Buddham Sharanam Gachami
It means: I surrender to my enlightened awareness.
How true.

Muhamad, it is made in Pakistan. Weird, huh? I dunno what possessed me to flip it over, but imagine my surprise at the store. I was going to go with a nice elephant statue, but come ON. Look at that thing!

I always loved Kama Sutra statues and artwork, but was too embarrassed to display them in my home (I’m no prude, but I do have Catholic grandparents). This is twice as dirty and thrice as brilliant! Seecret Loooovers…

Kafirgirl, that’s exactly what I’d like to like about Pakistan. :-)
Several hundred years of Islam hasn’t quite crushed the liberal spirit of “our” people. Long may it exist.

Hi Kafirgirl !
I’m impressed that you have come so far in the quran
and still haven’t lost your senses in general,
or your sense of humour in particular!!!
Just one thing: the fat guy you call ‘Buddha’ is
definitely NOT the Buddha.
That fat guy’s name in Buddhist literature is Po-tai or Hõtai (depending on whether one use the Chinese or the Japanese name for him),
or ; “Happy Hõtai” as he is affectionately known.
Kind’a'like a father-christmas-and-a-good-luck-charm-combined.
I know; everyone thinks that the fat-guy-sculptures one see everywhere is the Bud-guy, but it’s not.
Keep up the good work Kafirgirl.

True. Buddha barely ate anything, so he wasn’t fat :)
It’s a common mistake, like the idea that Buddha is a god, or that Buddhists pray to him (maybe some do, but most don’t).
Awesome statue, either way :)
