2 Chiang Rai Temple Contemporary Buddhist Art

- The Turquoise Temple, originally just an old temple, was so dilapidated that in 1997 it was restored by Master Chulimchai Voritpivot, a national artist in the visual arts, redesigned it, took 13 years to complete, and it was further restored, and it was characterized by a pure white rectory, so that it was called "White Temple."

- Rong Tiger Dancing Temple was originally an abandoned temple, built over 80-100 years, restored by Chiang Rai folk artist Buddha Kab Kaew, a disciple of Master Chulimchai, who had the opportunity to build Rong Khun Temple to be called a Khun Khun Khun Khun Khun. It started construction in 2005, took 11 years to build. The highlight is that it is used as a blue tone with gold to distinguish the temple as a bright sky. It is a distinctive contemporary Buddhist art.

... Read moreถ้าใครเสิร์ชคำว่า “ทิพยานสู่พุทธภูมิ” แล้วอยากได้ฟีลเดินชมศิลปะที่เล่าเรื่องธรรมะผ่านภาพและสถาปัตยกรรม เราว่าคู่ “วัดร่องขุ่น + วัดร่องเสือเต้น” ในเชียงรายตอบโจทย์มาก เพราะทั้งสองที่พาเราไล่อารมณ์จาก “โลก-กิเลส-การตื่นรู้” ไปสู่ความสงบแบบค่อยเป็นค่อยไป ทริปของเราชอบเริ่มที่วัดร่องขุ่นก่อน (White Temple) เพราะโทนขาวบริสุทธิ์ทำให้รู้สึกเหมือนกำลังเดินเข้าสู่พื้นที่ที่ตั้งใจชวนให้วางความฟุ้งซ่าน จุดที่ห้ามพลาดคือสะพานทางเข้าที่หลายคนยืนถ่ายรูปกันยาว ๆ และโซนประติมากรรม “มือที่ยื่นออกมาจากนรก” ซึ่งเป็นซิกเนเจอร์มาก มองเผิน ๆ อาจดูแรง แต่พอดูดี ๆ มันเหมือนเตือนเรื่องความยึดติด ความอยาก และการดิ้นรนของจิตใจ—เข้ากับคีย์เวิร์ดทิพยานฯ ที่เหมือนชวนเรามองลึกกว่าความสวยงามภายนอก อีกมุมที่เราชอบคือภาพอุโบสถสีขาวสะท้อนผืนน้ำ ถ้าวันไหนฟ้าเปิด แดดลงพอดี จะยิ่งเห็นรายละเอียดลวดลายวิจิตรชัดมาก เดินไปอีกหน่อยจะมีองค์ประกอบสีเงิน/โลหะให้ถ่ายรูปสวย ๆ ด้วย (เราแนะนำถ่ายแบบเผื่อพื้นที่ท้องฟ้า จะได้อารมณ์ “ขาว-ใส-โปร่ง”) จากนั้นค่อยขยับไปวัดร่องเสือเต้น (Blue Temple) ที่เปลี่ยนโหมดแบบชัดเจน: โทนน้ำเงินตัดทองทั้งวิหารและลวดลาย ทำให้รู้สึกเหมือนอยู่ใต้ท้องฟ้าสดใสตามคอนเซ็ปต์ จุดที่ตะลึงจริง ๆ คือภายในวิหาร—เพดานและผนังลายแน่นแต่ไม่อึดอัด และมีพระพุทธรูปสีขาวองค์ใหญ่เป็นจุดรวมสายตา เราชอบยืนเงยดูเพดานสักพัก มันให้ความรู้สึก “ถูกยกระดับสายตาและใจ” แบบเงียบ ๆ ทิปเล็ก ๆ จากประสบการณ์เรา: ถ้าอยากได้รูปสวยและเดินสบาย ให้ไปเช้าหน่อย แสงจะนุ่ม คนไม่แน่น และถ่ายสี “ขาว” กับ “น้ำเงิน-ทอง” ออกมาชัดกว่า นอกจากนี้แต่งกายสุภาพไว้ก่อน (ทั้งสองวัดค่อนข้างมีนักท่องเที่ยวเยอะ) แล้วเผื่อเวลาให้ตัวเองได้ “ดู” ไม่ใช่แค่ “ถ่าย” เพราะพอเราค่อย ๆ สังเกตสัญลักษณ์ รายละเอียดพญานาค งานปั้น และบรรยากาศเงียบในวิหาร จะยิ่งเข้าใจอารมณ์ทริปแนวทิพยานสู่พุทธภูมิได้มากขึ้น สรุปสำหรับเรา: วัดร่องขุ่นเหมือนบทนำที่เตือนเรื่องกิเลสและการก้าวข้าม ส่วนวัดร่องเสือเต้นเหมือนบทต่อที่พาใจไปสู่ความสว่าง สงบ และศรัทธา ใครมาเชียงรายแล้วอยากได้ทั้งรูปสวยและความหมายดี ๆ แนะนำเก็บคู่นี้ให้ครบเลย

Wat Arun aka Temple of Dawn. The temple stands majestically over the water of the west bank of the Chao Phraya river in Bangkok. It called Temple of Dawn because the first morning light (dawn) reflects off the temple with a pearl looking iridescence or it may named after Aruna (Indian God of Dawn).
