:: Buddhapadipa Thai Temple
Volunteer Artists
Once the walls of the Ubosot had been modified to make them suitable for mural painting, the work on the Life of the Buddha could begin. At the start, there were 2 assistants, but their number was progressively increased later to 4, 10 and finally to 14. None of them received remuneration. All of them came from Thailand. They were either friends or students of Chalermchai Kositpipat and Panya Vijinthanasarn.
The Murals Of the Life of Buddha
| The murals in the ordination hall of Wat Buddhapadipa depict important episodes from the lifestory of the Buddha. The major scenes are shown opposite.
