The first image of the lord saint

No 6

Do you know that the first image is not one of the lord saint in the seated pose? The image below is but one of the perhaps 12 or so standing pose images. They are not carved from teak but paper and wire based. The picture below is one at innerb truth netizen's private collection

Lord Bo Tien desecended in standing pose
with spear in right hand at Tai Seng temple.
The first temple said to be at
Jln Kaki Bukit was razed by fire

Bo Tien mission-related temples

Four Bo Tien mission related temples have been set up over time since 1970 with two in Singapore and two at Sitiawan. They are independent, autonomous but yet under the umbrella of the same mission. There is one Bo Tien Temple at Jurong Singapore and another Bo Tien Temple at Sitiawan. Another temple by name of Bo Ser Keng set up by a Mr. Tan N. P. at Boh Ling Sua Singapore lasted for some time and a fourth set up by the late Chee S. H. at Sitiawan Malaysia was named initially as Bo Tien Keng and later changed to Bo Tien Soo.... (not sure of the name). More temples are likely to be set up in the future so long as there are passionate followers of Lord Bo Tien. But it appears that only those temples which are seeded from Bo Tien Temple Singapore will continue to grow.
