Swayambhunath is an ancient religious complex atop a hill in the Kathmandu Valley, west of Kathmandu city. It is also known as the Monkey Temple as there are holy monkeys living in the temple. For the Buddhist Newars in whose mythological history and origin myth as well as day-to-day religious practice, Swayambhunath occupies a central position, it is probably the most sacred among Buddhist pilgrimage sites. For Tibetans and followers of Tibetan Buddhism, it is second only to Boudhanath.
The Swayambhunath complex consists of a stupa, a variety of shrines and temples, some dating back to the Licchavi period. A Tibetan monastery, museum and library are more recent additions. The stupa has Buddha's eyes and eyebrows painted on. Between themis the Nepali symbol of 'unity'.
Much of Swayambhunath's iconography comes from the Vajrayana tradition of Newar Buddhism. However, the complex is also an important site for Buddhists of many schools, and is also revered by Hindus.
Diana Trout and Leighanna Light have teamed up with a call for Prayer Flags - for the lives lost in Newtown, CT. My understanding is that you can make them to send to Leighanna, who will then send them to the students and faculty of Sandy Hook... or you can hang them where-ever you live. Please go to www.facebook.com/pages/The-hope-flag-project/498268640213...
www.facebook.com/pages/Prayer-Flags-for-Newtown/188127127... for information. My flags will be hung here in Colombia where I live.

There used to be a Prayer Plant that was in one of these gift arrangements with other plants in the greenhouse at the Monroe Community Hospital. A woman volunteer used to bring patients in next to it to have prayer sessions, but it eventually died. I was able to find another one and now I know what kind of light and watering it likes so it is doing well.
I understand that the leaves of these plants fold down at night and come back up in the daytime....thus the name.
NO ICONS OR INVITES PLEASE
Prayer is a conversation, a conversation between you and your inner soul.

This little chapel is in a corn field close to nowhere. There is a little area inside that looks like people used to be able to go in and light a candle for someone and say a prayer. The gate in the doorway is now locked.

I found this prayer and I want to share it with you.
I printed this as postcard and put it on my dining table as a reminder.
"He didn't know why he went there. But he walked and walked until he arrived by the water. He sat and watched as the sun melted into the sea. Something stirred in him- he didn't know what exactly- but he lowered his head in shame and cried. He cried over words spoken, feelings unspoken, the injustices he saw too numerous to count. With his head still lowered, he whispered a final prayer, carried to the heavens by the same gentle breeze that dried his tears"
