The
Buddhist
Dharma
&
8
Pho
temple
located
on
PWRI
Street
in
Kampung
Jati,
Tonjong,
Tajur
Halang,
Bogor,
West
Java
is
the
only
monastery
in
Bogor
that
has
the
largest
Sleeping
Buddha
statue
in
Bogor.
This
statue
has
a
length
of
18
meters
with
a
height
of
5
meters.
This
statue
is
an
icon
of
this
temple
and
many
people
visit
to
be
able
to
see
this
huge
statue
directly.
Buddhists
can
also
perform
prayer
rituals
here
in
the
huge
prayer
room
and
the
ritual
ends
by
praying
beside
the
Sleeping
Buddha
statue.
In
front
of
this
statue,
were
placed
some
candle
glasses,
incense,
orange
fruit,
and
golden
barrel
on
top
of
a
long
table,
some
sitting
pads
to
sit
in
prayer
are
also
placed
nearby.
This
temple
is
called
Buddha
Dharma
&
8
Pho
Sat
(8
agreed
Buddhist
figures)
was
built
in
2010
and
was
inaugurated
in
2012.
Overall
this
monastery
does
look
beautiful.
Entering
from
the
front
of
the
entrance
was
a
beautiful
flower
relief
on
the
wall
and
a
graceful
entrance
gate.
Then
when
coming
into
the
yard
the
visitors
will
be
met
by
the
stupa
as
can
be
seen
in
the
temple
like
in
the
Borobudur
Temple
with
a
golden
Buddha
statue
in
it.
Furthermore,
behind
this
stupa
we
can
see
the
black
wall
with
the
relief
of
short
journey
of
Siddartha
Gautama's
life
to
the
enlightenment
of
being
a
Buddha.
This
relief
were
made
in
the
gold
color
which
is
very
contrasting
with
the
color
of
the
black
wall
so
that
it
is
easily
seen
and
infused
with
the
story.
Entering
the
courtyard
behind
this
black
wall,
there
are
also
relief
on
the
wall
painted
in
colors
which
also
contain
the
Buddha's
journey.
Near
the
large
statue
there
is
a
big
and
multiple
layers
of
shelves
along
the
wall
and
a
statue
of
the
Goddess
Kwan
Im
near
him.
This
large
and
long
shelves
contain
hundreds
of
small
Buddha
statues
that
is
affixed
with
a
family
name
below
each
of
them
which
descript
the
name
of
the
family
who
has
donated
to
a
monastery
and
orphanage
inside
the
monastery
complex
so
that
the
name
can
be
helped
and
prayed
for
during
the
prayer
recitation.
