Prayer candles in Saint Patrick's cathedral.

There was a really huge and heavy prayer bell at the exit to the main shrine of the Puh Toh Tze temple. Again, there was the customary warning notice asking visitors not to ring the bell. Not that it would have been possible to ring it anyway due to its sheer weight and it's being barricaded, as seen here. (Kota Kinabalu, East Malaysia, Nov. 2013)

The shrine had a place where you could leave prayers you would like answered. There must have been prayers from all over the world because I saw many languages that I did not recognize.

Native American prayer flag in the forest surrounding Devils Tower National Monument, northeast Wyoming, USA. Formed by magma that hardened beneath the earth's surface 50 million years ago, then appeared above the landscape 1-2 million years ago as the softer rock around it eroded away, this otherworldly formation is sacred to local Native American tribes. According to legend, the Great Spirit made the rock rise out of the earth to help people escape a giant bear, who angrily clawed at the sides as it grew.

The site of the Tower is sacred to several Native American tribes, and even to this day, they bring prayer bundles and place them near the Tower. I didn't manage to find any, so I wasn't able to photograph one, let alone disturb it...

We've had such a hard week. Pinkie is in need of some prayers. I have been so sick with worry over her. She is coming out of a second surgery from complications with an obstruction. It has been hard these past few days watching this lively little girl fight so valiantly. She's had two surgeries now, patching up 5 holes in her intestines the first time and now removing a portion in her second surgery. She is no where near out of the woods but she is a fighter and I know she will pull through.

It was getting dark as we arrived at our last Mandalay temple-stop of the day, but fortunately the rains held off. We positioned ourselves on the upper balcony of a modest monastery - who's name I don't know - and waited as a young monk struck a metal bong repeatedly with a heavy wooden striker. Quietly, walking barefoot, maroon-robed monks emerged from all directions, and lined up to enter the prayer hall, where they sat for meditation, chanting and prayers.

Postures like this sister were easily sighted. I was impressed by the earnestness of the Korean's prayer. I don't think it was just external: what is inside will certainly be shown visibly too in some way, and at the conference you could sense the passion of the brothers and sisters for God.

Look, praying just *isn't that effective* a way of getting your message across in a busy noisy street.
