I love these neon lit deities...... we saw the Buddhist Goddess of Mercy ...... Quan Am ....... sometimes called Guanyin ........ all light up with yellow neon.......... then we saw The Virgin Mary lit up in blue neon ......... I guess they are kind of equivalent immortal figures feminine and purveyors of mercy and forgiveness ......... well perhaps I am wrong ..... no doubt their adherents would see no equivalence ......... but they certainly seemed to have very similar neon halos when present here in statue form in Ho Chi Minh City Vietnam.
