MaCe 3 Report post Posted October 13, 2007 Bt hor...I heard standing ones are more for business and sitting ones more for at home.....I rmb when I trying to find my Guan Yin and I really like the one standing....then my mum say cannot cos tat one will not take care of hse cos more for business as they lok far....My friend's Ah Ma told us tat dun lok for Guan yin tat shows their feet cos no good...I also dunno wat is no good...bt I told my HB I dun care as long as I like...Bt it so happens tat the one tat caught our eye is no feet shown out one la...So I suppose also no difference between marbles and porcelains one la?for true blue buddhism - no such thing as the material - even if it is just a painting also same.those stand/sitting/show or no show feet theory are from DANGKEEs, doesnt apply to buddhism. dont believe can go check with a buddhist monk.
