Took this at a monastery at Spiti ovally. There was a morning prayer session at the monastery - and it was mostly kids for some reason. I assumed it was going on for a while - because the kids had food and drinks with them and were happily munching on them when the prayers were going on.

For Jeanne. Thanks to my dear friend for a great conversation, and pushing me to release some angst I've had about sharing some of my work. I appreciate her perspective and wisdom!
My sister-in-law, Avona and her female Great Dane, Rosie, are inseparable. After a number of years with an incurable cough and discomfort, Avona was diagnosed with what they now know was a hereditary lung disease. Currently she is high up on the lung transplant list at Stanford Medical Center. Any prayers you can send her way would be greatly appreciated. Her spirits are strong and she and Rosie have plans for a full life together and perhaps a bigger car!

"Show me your ways, O LORD, teach me your paths; guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long. Remember, O LORD, your great mercy and love, for they are from of old. Remember not the sins of my youth and my rebellious ways; according to your love remember me, for you are good, O LORD."
Psalm 25:4-7

Pattaya City, TH
Visiting a local church in Italy, I noticed a parishioner sitting in silent prayer. I sensed her peace and devotion amongst the symbols of her religion.

This wall of prayer wheels were at our hotel in Thimphu, the capital city of Bhutan., We were at the very beautiful Druk Hotel and our rooms were really really pretty. As we progressed across the country the accommodation went from four star to maybe two star:-)
Prayer time at Ahmedabad's Jama Masjid Mosque in the Old City.
This one is dedicated to my father who grew up in Ahmedabad.
It is a prayer wheel in the street of Ladakhi village. A prayer wheel is a cylindrical wheel installed on a spindle made from metal, wood, stone, leather or coarse cotton. Traditionally, the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is written in Sanskrit on the outside of the wheel. Also sometimes depicted are Dakinis, Protectors and very often the 8 auspicious symbols Ashtamangala. At the core of the cylinder is a "Life Tree" often made of wood or metal with certain mantras written on or wrapped around it. Many thousands (or in the case of larger prayer wheels, millions) of mantras are then wrapped around this life tree. The Mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is most commonly used, but other mantras may be used as well. According to the Tibetan Buddhist tradition based on the lineage texts regarding prayer wheels, spinning such a wheel will have much the same meritorious effect as orally reciting the prayers.
A Prayer Wheel is a cylindrical 'wheel' (Tibetan: 'khor) on a spindle made from metal, wood, stone, or even coarse cotton. The earliest recorded prayer wheels was written by a Chinese pilgrim around 400 CE. in Ladakh at the temple depicted the in above photo.
The concept of the prayer wheel is a physical manifestation of the phrase "turning the wheel of Dharma," which describes the way in which the Buddha taught. Traditionally, the mantra Om Mani Padme Hum is written in Sanskrit externally on the wheel.

Inside the Prayer wheels thousands of shlokas and Hymns are inscribed. Rotating these wheels is equivalent to reciting all of them. Can it get easier than this ?
