Scaling the giant


Here you see the right hand of the Leshan Giant Buddha, sculpted over a span of 90 years during the Tang Dynasty. It was listed as a World Heritage Site by the UNESCO in 1996. Recently scientists discovered what could be a secret chamber within the Buddha's chest. These men clothed in yellow are there to do some preliminary survey work.

It was ostensibly Newton who once said that for him to achieve what he had achieved, he was "standing on the shoulders of giants". But i think there's a giant inside every one of us. We just have to scale it to discover our true potential.
