In Buddhism, there is a great god known as '''Brahma Sanam-kumara'''. His name also means “forever a youth.” Brahma Sanam-kumara is a being so elevated that he must create an apparition body in order to be seen by the gods of the heaven of the Thirty-Three. Sakka, the ruler of the gods, describes his appearance: “He outshines other devas in radiance and glory, just as a figure made of gold outshines the human figure.”<ref>Maurice Walsh, trans., ''Thus Have I Heard: The Long Discourses of the Buddha Digha Nikaya'' (London: Wisdom Publications, 1987), pp. 295–96.</ref> | In Buddhism, there is a great god known as '''Brahma Sanam-kumara'''.
