Of the many different religious organizations in Taiwan, one of the biggest and most well respected is Foguangshan and the Buddha’s Light International Association. Quick to respond with aid in the wake of the devastating typhoon Morakot, Foguangshan and BLIA are both known for their work in the social, medical and educational fields, with free clinics, educational programs, environmental projects and other charity work. I blogged in detail about them in early 2008 and for 5 this week, I bring you a few more images from the headquarters and main monastery.

Craig Ferguson Images | Cultural Photography. One of the key aspects of life that we humans identify with is culture. We label people, places and events according to our ideas of what they are, ranging from the broader scale defined by tradition and place down to the small scale subcultures and tribes. Craig Ferguson Images is consistantly creating new visions in the field of cultural photography. From traditional festives and customs to modern, urban subcultures, Craig Ferguson Images is in touch with the changing world. From our base in Taipei, Taiwan we are perfectly positioned at the crossroads of the ancient and the modern.
