Beyond the statue of Guanyin, the golden Buddhas, the candles and joss sticks, are the more mundane items of a daily existence. Even a Chinese temple needs to be clean.

Hmmm, it takes a lot more equipment than that to clean a Baptist church. I wonder if there’s a lesson there?

Shawn: No pews (Kneeling mats only), and, a stone floor. Probably easier to keep clean than a “typical” church. I say typical, or perhaps stereotypical. A light dusting, a sweep, a mop, and a temple is good to go.

I don’t know about China, but the temples here are always a little dusty even though they’re regularly cleaned with the same equipment – the dust adds to the atmosphere, IMHO.

Craig: I agree. I like the dust of China, be it in temples or backstreets. Going to an upscale mall is difficult – It’s too clean.
