The greatest sculpture of all is the Wheel of Life at the far end of the park. As this diagram shows (for a clear printable copy, click on it to download an Adobe pdf version), life in Luang Poo's view, is a cycle of influences and phases, which start at one's conception and end at one's death.
The Buddhist elements of heat, breath, wisdom and change are represented, as are the stages of birth, aging, suffering and death. Finally, one follows the Lord Buddha over the wall of life to nirvana... or do you?... there's one last sculpture and if you want to know who he is, you must come here & I'll explain! |
If you visit Salakaewkoo and thoroughly enjoy it, we highly recommend checking out the historical park near Ban Phu, it is truly one of the most fascinating sites in Isaan. |
