. Palm -sized. ]] In Buddhism , portable shrines were made so that devout travellers with nowhere to worship could carry their shrines with them. The shrines were two-piece, and could be shut together to preserve the artwork. Miniature Buddha s and Goddesses could be carried in small lacquer cases, much resembling the portable phone cases of today, carried on the wrist. In Tibet , the shrines were sometimes made of metal, and carried with over-the-shoulder straps. |
