Bigfoot in Kechara????
You know I just love all types of strange phenomena such as bigfoot, Naztec, pyramids, UFO, Loch Ness, Findhorn, Bermuda Triangle, Aztecs, Egyptians, Atlantis, Easter Island, etc etc etc…I ‘ve been watching and reading up on these subjects since very young. I find them all very fascinating. My enthusiasm towards them is just as strong now.
Well look at this great gift I received today!!! Yes it is my first bigfoot figurine!! Super neat!! Sengpiow ordered this from KECHARA SARASWATI ARTS DEPT as a gift for me…Can you imagine?? It was made right in KSA!!
Gee, are our people talented or not? I mean a Tibetan Arts and Crafts Dept who can sculpt and make bigfoot??? How wild is that? Very wild. I love KSA!!
I got the figurine about a half hour ago and thought I’d share it…Lili Ng is the artist in Kechara Saraswati Arts that did this.. She is part of the wonderful team in KSA. I LOVE IT. THANK YOU VERY MUCH EVERYONE. SUPER NEAT. My first and only Bigfoot figurine..I will offer him up to my shrine and dedicate to everyone.

My figurine was made based on this really famous footage by Patterson.
This is considered a real and genuine footage of Bigfoot. It has gone under two decades of scrutiny by everyone and anyone and it cannot be proven a fake. Neat.
I love my bigfoot alot…thanks alot everyone. Thanks so much for your talents and love. What a neat out of this world gift….Hmmmm….I’ve got other ideas of what I want KSA to sculpt for me…hehehe.

Dear Rinpoche,
What a great gift – fairly unique too! The folks at KSA sure are a talented bunch. It’s wonderful that you have a keen interest in these enigmatic subjects. I remember being on a visit to Loch Ness when I was younger and my friend took great pride in announcing that the Loch Ness monster was a fake and ridiculous idea. He wasn’t so sure though after I dared him to swim in the Loch – he couldn’t decline quick enough!
I hope you enjoy your gift, Rinpoche.
Kind regards,
Sandy
Kecharians are such talented people, basically, they can do anything, anything!!! How wonderful when people are learning from one another… they’ll be able to learn some much from one another. Under the guidance of Rinpoche and the roof Kechara, it is now not only a precious dharma center, it is also a learning center. NICE!
Cool figurines…its Rinpoche that keep throwing the challenge to the KSA folks thta brings out the best in them. KSA is an amazing team, and may the talent growth by leaps n bounds.
I saw Lili very casually work on this some time ago amidst all the “organised chaos” and going-ons at KSA and i remember remarking what wonderful work it was. She truly is a rare talent and good of SP to commission such a brilliant gift for Rinpoche.
Although I have never seen Bigfoot, Nessie of the Lochness and UFOs (other than the regular ones at Kechara) i have always felt they were very real. And the closer I get to my own sense of existence, the more these and others yet to be discovered, become real.
Bigfoot, Leviathan, Behemoth, Flying Serpents, Fire Breathing Dragons, Unicorns, Ghosts, Rhakshas…so much we don’t know.
Wow, is great Rinpoche, and yes, KSA do have some amazing, talented people. I don’t think there’s anything Lili Ng can’t do. Much better than the stuff we order off amazon or whatever!
And, hmmmm if we look closer, he does seem to resemble quite a lot of people within Kechara too, doesn’t he?… although I’d probably say some of us are probably scarier than big foot.
I love that sightings of Bigfoot reveal that he is actually quite a gentle creature. Very Monlam-like? hehe
Awe Wicked!
wow… now this is what quality figuring is all about.
Love the facial expression =)
Very nice big foot, can produce more for sell
Can, contact Paul of Kechara Saraswati Dept..
What a beautiful work a lot of effort .
Well done lily!
I love the posture and expression of bigfoot….Cute…A nice piece of art…
SP is very thoughtful to ever thought of this wonderful creation as a gift to Rinpoche. Very unique and inspiring, to allow Lily to show her talent of creating new things. It is truly a labour of LOVE! Congrats Lily for a wonderful job!
Looking at the title for people who don’t know Rinpoche or Kechara. They would think and be shocked that a Bigfoot is really existing in Kechara. Well this Bigfoot is not really big. But the size is just the opposite of the real Bigfoot. It is a figurine made by KSA and ordered as a gift to to be given to Rinpoche by his personal assistant Seng Piow. Seng Piow knows that Rinpoche loves Bigfoot. The figurine was made and sculptured by our KSA artist Lili Ng. It looks really like the Giant Bigfoot except that it is a miniature version of the real life one. It is so nice to see Rinpoche so happy with the things that he likes.
Yes, Rinpoche, you have created a 21st century Tibetan Arts and Crafts studio of many local talents and expertise through KSA, for the purpose of bringing people closer to Spirituality Through Art. KSA through its years of study from several visiting Tibetan experts and Artists, provides all services needed to transform any altar into a beautiful place of worship. KSA makes a great place for volunteers to learn and do:- (1) Statue and Thangka repairing and painting works (2) Brocade sewing of Deities cothings (3) Mantra cutting, mala beads stringing, flowers arrangemants etc.,etc. It is said that in the sutras that just by assisting and getting involved in the painting of holy objects and statues, makes it so easy for us ordinary beings to collect extensive merits. It is because statues are quintessential symbols of particular enlightened beings, and are embodiment of love, wisdom and compassion!
I’ve seen this statue in real life! It’s really really nice, looks extremely real, in an animated kind of way.
The intricacy of the details is astounding, and the statue is really nice, light-weighted and solid. The clay mould was done well, eventhough it was one of Lili’s first few attempts at clay. She has a brilliant knack for arts, her creativty is boundless. Kecharians are very talented!!
I am in awe of her creativity and recently, Lili took on a challenge and decided to make a 3ft Lama Tsongkhapa Statue on Elephant!! She has successfully completed it, you can see it here: http://blog.tsemtulku.com/tsem-tulku-rinpoche/kechara-13-depts/kechara-discoverys-very-first-in-house-statue.html
Big round of applause to Lili – she’s your one stop creative shop, from flower arrangement to art classes, statue making to painting.
Love,
Carmen
