Vairochana, the Great Sun Buddha, Longhua Temple, Shanghai, China

 

At this solstice time we remember the Great Sun Buddha (Vairochana Buddha, Dari Rulai, Dainichi Nyorai) the body of the universe, from whom all things--including all Buddhas--arise; the "ground of being"; the source of all phenomena; the interdependence that underlies all existence. Just like the sun!
