I used to collect knick-knacks, like wizards, trolls and little buddhas, and arrange them like precious things on a shelf.
Whoever realizes that the six senses aren't real, that the five aggregates are fictions, that no such things can be located anywhere in the body, understands the language of Buddhas.
I am a Buddhist, therefore I should not be collecting anything - however, I have a collection of Buddhas. I have a lot of them.
The Taliban's acts of cultural vandalism - the most infamous being the destruction of the giant Bamiyan Buddhas - had a devastating effect on Afghan culture and the artistic scene. The Taliban burned countless films, VCRs, music tapes, books, and paintings. They jailed filmmakers, musicians, painters, and sculptors.
Mother Earth is very talented. She has produced Buddhas, bodhisattvas, great beings.
Buddhas move freely through birth and death, appearing and disappearing at will.

One Buddha is not enough; we need to have many Buddhas.
The Buddhas had to be destroyed by the Taliban to get the world thinking about Afghanistan.
I think every religious person should have a deep sense of respect for other people's religious documents and religious symbols just as we were deeply opposed to the Taliban destroying the two historic buddhas which they blew up. So I think we ought to all oppose burning the Koran.
