Interview Questions from Lay-friends

"Does Buddhism have a flag?"

As the Buddha sat upon a Jeweled Chamber, six rays of color radiated from him – blue, yellow, red, white, and orange. A combination of all those colors represents the colors of the aura that emanated from the body of the Buddha when He attained Enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree.

Six rays of color radiated from the Buddha when He attained Enlightenment under the Bodhi Tree.

Blue rays radiated from the Buddha’s hair; yellow rays radiated from the Buddha’s epidermis and skin; red rays radiated from the Buddha’s flesh and muscles; white rays radiated from the Buddha’s bones and teeth; and orange rays radiated from the Buddha’s palms, heels and lips. A combination of these five colors also emanated from the Buddha as part of his aura.
