TOP TIP: THE EMERALD BUDDHA IS LOCATED IN THE GRAND PALACE.
A ONCE IN A LIFETIME EXTRAORDINARY EXPERIENCE.
Living in Bangkok for 27 years, and being a dedicated disciple of a world-renowned Yogi, I endeavour to share my experience with The Grand Palace & Emerald Buddha - (Wat Phra Kaew).
Whilst meditating in front of The Emerald Buddha in 2015 I was overwhelmed with an incredibly profound joyful and blissful experience.
I could only conclude The Emerald Buddha has been blessed by a highly evolved spiritual Avatar, possibly The Buddha himself.
The Emerald Buddha in The Grand Palace itself is the main attraction. A figurine of the meditating Buddha made from one solid piece of green jade, clothed in gold and diamonds.
The lineage and origins of The Emerald Buddha, in part are unclear, what is certain, it is greatly revered from the Royal family to Thai nationals alike, as Thailand’s utmost precious religious icon, for good reason.
The Grand Palace, once lived in by Kings is courtyards of countless majestic and all inspiring examples of exquisite Royal architecture through the millennia.
The Reclining Buddha (Wat Pho) is a world-renowned 46 meter long gold plated reclining Buddha, 700 meters south, of The Grand Palace. Its pose represents entry into complete spiritual enlightenment ending all worldly reincarnations and attachments.
