Cleaning Buddha

It’s hard to believe that 2011 is almost over. As we head into the last month of the year, it’s time for the twelfth free desktop calendar of 2011. Cleaning Buddha comes from Bodhnath Stupa in Nepal. Custodians circulate the upper level splashing yellowish colored water over the white stupa in a ritual end to the day’s cleaning. Hit the links below for the size(s) you want.

For those of you in Taiwan who have blogs of any description, the 2011 Taiwan Blog Awards starts tomorrow December 1st.
