ヘッドロックお陀仏

10月28日(日)快晴

農産物の備蓄により富める者と貧しき者が出現。支配のイデオロギーとして神が発明されます。今も昔も宗教施設は権力の象徴。タイのアユタヤ王国も隣国ビルマに攻め入られ、街中の寺院は焼かれ、仏像は鼻を削がれ、首を刎ねられました。鼻はどこへ行ったの？首刎ねられて山河あり。焼け跡の樹木にガジュマルが着生。ガジュマルは次々と気根をからませて宿主を絞め殺します。根元に転がっていた仏陀の首も絞め殺され状態です。

ガジュマル

Head-locked Buddha
Sun. October 28 : fine

The storage of the crop made the rich and the poor. Gods were invented as the ideology of the rules. Religious institutions have been the symbol of the power in the human history. Ayutthaya kingdom in Thailand was attacked by Burma. All the temples in the city were burnt down, the noses of the images of Buddha were cut off, and their heads were cut down. Where have their nose been to? There are the mountains and the rivers left after being cut the head off. There are banyans stuck around the burnt trees in the ruins after the fire. The banyan is being twisted around the host tree and killed it finally. The head of Buddha lying down on the ground is almost killed by choking.
