THE little Buddhist sage sits underneath the tree only yards from the sea from which he was plucked, a whimsical smile upon his face. Villagers gather before him with offerings of incense and food.
"We must look after him," Gajendram, a fisherman, said as he knelt to light a candle. "He was sent 1,000 miles across the sea to protect us and he will stay with us for ever."
