Tit: Why does the Buddha image have blue hair?
Tat: It symbolises the blue light of universal compassion that radiated from his hair when he attained enlightenment.
Tit: Thought it was strange to portray him with blue hair.
Tat: Look at the image’s body.
Tit: Aha?
Tat: Do you think it’s appropriate that his body is gold in colour?
Tit: Never thought about that before.
Tat: Then why the fixation on the hair?
Tit: Well…
Tat: Anyway, the Buddha is said to have a magnificent gold radiance about his body!
Tit: I didn’t know that!
Tat: We’ll know for sure when we see him!
Tit: Or when we become Buddhas!
