Buddha under the 'Autumn' leaves

It was an overcast afternoon and visitors were few. We were circumambulating the stupa and enjoying the peaceful atmosphere. A friend who was ahead of us suddenly appeared and excitedly told us to see the Buddha image at the other side, partly hidden by another structure.


It was a delightful sight. Beneath a bodhi tree which leaves had turned golden, as if autumn had come, was a magnificent Buddha image.
