This Statue of the
Buddha was on display in the window of the Saint Giles Street Gallery in
Norwich, UK. Now the Buddha
statue sits on the floor below the Beatles. The Gallery owner is heartless
considering the scale of sadness inflicted on thousands of Buddhists and
non-Buddhists who learn about this ill-treatment of the top Religious Figure.

A local police officer has
visited the art gallery in question. The Statue was displayed prominently in a
window frontage in full view of passers-by on a busy public street. Gallery
owner David Koppel has agreed to turn the sculpture, so the front is not on
view. This arrangement is not the solution acceptable to Buddhists in the UK
and all over the world. This so-called 'freedom of artistic expression' is not
for the Art Gallery which is freely open to the General Public. A very serious
offence can be caused to any general member of the public on entering the
Gallery.
