(NYT35) NEW YORK -- Jan. 8, 2003 -- BUDDHA-STATUE-3 -- For 1,300 years the Akshobhya Buddha, one of four large statues of Buddha at the Four Gate Pagoda in China's Shandong Province, sat solemnly looking eastward, face locked in a beatific expression. In 1997, the Buddha lost its head to a gang of thieves. In February 2002, the head of the Akshobhya Buddha turned up in Taiwan, the gift of loyal disciples to the Buddhist master Sheng-yen, the 73-year-old founder of the Dharma Drum Mountain Buddhist Association, based in Taiwan. Master Sheng-yen launched an investigation and it was discovered that the Buddha head was indeed the one that was stolen from China. He returned the head to China and it was united with its body. A recent portrait of Master Sheng-yen. (Fred R. Conrad/The New York Times)
