I want to learn about BUDDHA
Go for it.
The internet is a great source of information.
You could also do it the old-fashioned way and get a few books on the topic.
Here are several sites that will give you information on this topic.

Yay! It's... Buddha!!
As a side note, the city I live in, Changhua, has the tallest Buddha statue in Southeast Asia.

When I first got here, people kept taking me there to see it.
While you're reading up on Buddha, feel free to post any questions you might have. I'm always craving religion questions on the board. I don't get a whole lot of them :)

I correct myself. It's not the tallest in SE Asia. I didn't think it was when I wrote that, but there was one site that said it was. I decided to investigate it further. Oh well...mistakes happen :)
It is 22 meters tall, though. So it's pretty impressive.
