there are many sculptures that deal with Buddhist tradition and religion. This is especially true when it comes to depictions of the Head of the Buddha. First‚ the head itself appears to be carved out of some sort of yellow or brown rock‚ possibly sandstone or limestone. The Head of the Buddha has many distinct features that separate it from others.

I found the Sermon on the Mount to be quite interesting to read‚ partly because I have yet to read this until now‚ and partly because certain aspects of what Matthew was saying struck a chord with me. The section titled Salt and Light makes the claim that individuals should share their God given gifts and talents with everyone.
