Devotion

A young Nun at the Mc Cleod Ganj Monastery practises her prostrations in front of the Buddha, of which she must do 108 a day. There are two parts to the prostration, the second is illustrated in the image below.

 

I greatly admired her mindfulness in her meditation even me with my ostentatious equipment photographing her did not seem to distract her. Peace and acceptance appeared to flow from her.

 

I felt great respect for her and her sisters.
