On the 3rd of May team Holywood travelled to Kagyu Samye Tibetan centre for our regions topic. We had a tour of the whole place. The temple was massive. I learned that the statue of Buddha is hollow and has relics from different teachers because Buddhists don’t have a god but they have teachers. It took one hour to get to Kagyu Samye in Eskdalemuir and there was a little shop that was super expensive. We got told that the Buddha statue wasn’t pure gold but a kind of coting of gold, but its actually made from cooper. It was very interesting and I loved every bit of it to the temple to the stupa.
