[四面佛是印度婆罗门教神祇,原是婆罗门教三大主神之一的梵天,是创造天地之神。在东南亚、泰国被认为是法力无边,掌握人间荣华富贵之神;其四面分别朝向东南西北,供信众祈福。由于外形近似中国佛像,中文译名多为四面佛,但事实上四面佛不是佛,所以准确而言应译为四面神。......]
Buddha never claim himself is God right? I think 佛教徒 don't really worship Buddha or anything.
is god equal to 佛? 佛教徒 did worship Buddha, just we don't use the word 'worship'. in india & thailand, they have different celebration to show their love to Buddha
some people have misconceptions about Christians, and others have misconceptions about 佛教.
