Hello, this is my first post in this list after having lurked around for over a year. IMHO, it is HE/SHE moves everything in this world, and it is HE/SHE who has caused the statue to be placed there as a constant reminder to the rest of us believers that, I am the doer of all things great and small. It is not you, human, that moves the world, it is I who does so. So don't be bothered about it. You see, we interact with HIM/HER daily in our temples, take care of him/her, day in / day out as we would a person who is very very close to our heart or even ourselves. However, if you notice, statues of leaders kept out are generally not cleaned, birds use them to ...... and ...... and are remembered only when there is a requirement to further ends. Installing a statue only does not show the respect, it is how the devotion is shown that matters. We take care of HIM/HER and think about him every day, and that is what matters.
