Aynak is located about 25 miles (40
km) east of Kabul and contains an
ancient Buddhist monastic complex.
A rich copper deposit is also located
there and excavations are underway
to explore the site, and rescue the
artifacts, before a mine is built.

apa gak sedikit aneh?

patung tersebut adalah pangeran Siddharta sebelum mencapai kebuddhaan, lalu dari mana datangnya biksu yang disamping? logikanya kan sangha dibentuk setelah bodhisatta mencapai penerangan sempurna?

mungkin maksudnya bukan biksu, tapi petapa. mungkin kah?

monk bisa berarti pertapa bukan bhikku.
