Photos capture the path of Buddhism

Behold the glory of Buddha's Sarira. The young monks are gazing at the Buddha's Sarira attentively. After Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism passed away, his Sarira (the relics of his bones) were delivered to temples all over the world, becoming the holiest items of worship for Buddhists. For monks, is the uttermost glory to get a glimpse of Buddhs's Sarira. [Photo by Zhang Wang/photoint.net]
