Parker casey- zhizhe sarcophogus

this right here is the sarcophagus for sharira (holy remains)  of the priest zhizhe founder of the buddhist tiantai section. now when i first saw this i thought it was so cool. i have to admit i had no idea even what it was all i saw was a round object that looked like a mini house with two men on the side of the house. then i walked very closely to it and i read the plaque that came with it and i would of never guess that this small little thing in a glass box was a sarcophagus of a priest. now i never ever knew about this priest and i still don't know too much about him but i  can see that he was very important because he was the founder of the buddhist tiantai section. now from that i can tell that maybe he was a buddha  and almost made up a  section or religion of buddhas. i really dont know why i picked this figure or object it just cought my eye as soon as i saw it. there was the big huge statue of juno in the room and i cought this out of the corner of my eye and saw this and i definitly knew i wanted to know what this coffen thing was about
