So that, This 's Christian Writer.
The first answer is absolutely. The Buddha has never been ordered to make a statue. But the statue was later to make them up as they remembered him as a teacher only. The Buddha taught about cause and effect. He did not teach you in a matter of faith, without any cause and effect. Such as belief in God. We believe that they are ignorant. -
The main reason why they built statues is because of their ignorances.
Lord Buddha never teaches us to become anything but a practician. We have to "test" and "prove" his words by our own's wisdom not statues !!!
Otherwise, we are not his students and followers but a blind.
