Sri Lanka bans offensive images

 

Buddha is revered by most of the Sri Lankan population

Customs officials and police and customs in Sri Lanka have been told to seize Buddha Bar music and bikinis with Buddha images, officials say.

The music - which originates from a nightclub in Paris - and the swimwear have been deemed by the authorities as potentially offensive to Buddhists.

Doubt very much if the man himself would have found any offence though.People who get hung up on holy images don't seem to have learned anything. About the only good thing I can think of about islam is the ban on idols and images of anything held to be 'holy'.BTW if you type in www.fuckgod.com you get a very surprising result-peter

I have visited Buddha Bar a few times in Paris and it's a nice club and I hear the CD's occasionally which I bought in LOS. In Europe their music is overpriced, but I presume that the Buddha Bar compilations paved the way for all other Asian-eclectic-ambient world music compilations.
