At a height of 57 feet, the Vairocana Buddha is a sculpture of nearly 100,000 individual carvings of the buddha located at longmen.

<h3>Who was Buddha?</h3>

Ancient Indian monk and spiritual guide Gautama Buddha lived in the sixth or fifth century BCE.
Buddhists venerate him as the creator of Buddhism and a fully enlightened man who revealed the way to Nirvana—the escape from ignorance, craving, rebirth, and misery.
According to Buddhist legend, the Buddha was born to wealthy Shakya clan members in Lumbini, Nepal, but left home early to live a nomadic monastic life.
He spent his life begging, practising asceticism, and practising meditation before becoming enlightened in Bodh Gaya. After that, the Buddha travelled the lower Gangetic plain, teaching and establishing monastic orders.

Buddha advocated for a moderate path between indulgent sensuality and extreme asceticism, one that involved ethical instruction and contemplative techniques like effort, attention, and jhana.

In Kushinagar, he passed away and attained nirvana. Since then, many Asian communities and religions have honoured the Buddha.

Answer: the correct answer is B The statute is the least restrictive means of advancing the state's compelling interest in ending discrimination by groups using public facilities.

Explanation:

While schools are generally not public forums, they may become a designated public forum by being held open to student groups for meetings. In that case, the First Amendment may be violated if a college restricts use of its classrooms based on the content of a student group's speech.

To justify content-based regulation of otherwise protected speech, the government must show that the regulation is necessary to achieve a compelling state interest that cannot be satisfied by less restrictive means.

Similarly, the right to associate for expressive purposes is not absolute. At the very least, the right may be infringed to serve a compelling government interest, unrelated to the suppression of ideas, that cannot be achieved through means significantly less restrictive of associational freedoms.
