Jesus the Buddha

I saw this interesting image on waterpeoplenotgrass.tumblr, a fusion of East & Western religious art.

It uses the face & sacred heart of Jesus Christ combined with the iconography of Tibetan Buddhism, which includes the sacred lotus.

Siddartha Guatama (Buddha) supposedly lived about 500 years before Yeshua bin Yusuf (Jesus), and there is some speculation that Jesus was familiar with The Buddha's teachings. Both of these religious traditions embody the practice of enlightened spiritual values.
