Now, Buddhism's making a massive comeback with an estimate of 250 million followers in China today. -The sleeping Buddha. -Look at this! Enormous!
In fact, Lily is one of the huge numbers of young Chinese, who are once again embracing Buddhism. -Beautiful, right? And so close, you know, so close to the Buddha, and close to the 800 years' history.
-Oh, it's 70 years old now. How excited you are!
-Yeah.
-Did you choose to be a Buddhist, or did Buddism choose you?
