Stumbled across this graffiti Buddha image today. A coworker titled it the "Needs Medicine Buddha."

This shows Buddha as one of us, trapped in the suffering of samsara. We are making Buddha in our own image. Interesting.

Looks like Shakyamuni after a rough night on the town.

It's by Banksy (Cans Festival, London, 2008).
