Pop Culture Buddhas: Now You Can Meditate To Your Favorite Superheroes and Villains

Published 9 years ago

Buddha’s appearance as a jolly fat man in the “Laughing Buddha” statue is probably his best-known – and now, he‘s available in a variety of pop culture icon flavors! Chris Milnes is the Etsy artist behind the “Zen” line of 3D-printed sculptures of Buddha whose heads have been replaced with those of popular characters.

There’s everything from Zen Batman to Zen Optimus Prime (because robots should also know that desire is suffering). And you wouldn’t believe the variety of Star Wars characters present! Zen Groot from the Guardians of the Galaxy is probably the most fitting character here, though you will have to replace “om” with “groot”.

Writes like a mad dervish, rolls to dodge responsibility, might have bitten the Moon once.
