We have had a number of request for Bodhinatha’s picture. None are printed in poster size but we have put up on the web four images as hi-resolution tiff files which you can use, ask your printer to download, to print out and place in your home and shrine room. Today most print shops have an internet connection and you just need to send them to this page. and ask them to download of those images and print it for you. Any Kinkos (in the US) or similar shop will do this and a reasonable fee.

This is a rare “White Bat’s Ears” flower. OK, you’r right, it’s really Tacca integrifolia.
