What is/what inspired your avatar?

[zenmaster]

My avatar is a baby gorilla with this afro thing going on. It represents the godhead - the ultimate in everything. (A Buddhist rinpoche gave me this symbol when I visited Doi Suthep Temple in Chiang Mai, Thailand)

Were you in the same Buddhist Temple as Wai??

Yeah, I was there last month - quite the touristy area.

Well, the whole Thailand is quite a touristy area, but still - I think it's cool that you were in the same Temple as another member and also received a picture from a monk, and now that you both use these pictures as your avatars on Bring4th.

Was totally joking about receiving avatar from a monk. Not joking about being in the same temple. Interestingly though, For what it's worth, at one time I did see a lotus when interacting with a shaman..
