"For such men orchids are a blessed relief. Fancy has not conceived such loveliness, complete all round, as theirs—form, colour, grace, distribution, detail, and broad effect"--Frederick Boyle

October 16, 2010 Prayer Vigil at Sant'Andrea della Valle

My prayers for peace and understanding to all those affected by this seemingly incomprehensible act--especially to those who lost their lives, their friends, their sons and daughters. To everyone else...lets all watch out for each other, lend a helping hand to someone who needs it, and try to be a bit kinder to everyone around us whether we think they deserve it or not. The answer to ending such violence may be as simple as that.

These prayer ribbons are strung outside of a church downtown; there are hundreds of prayers for peace, victims of war, children, and loved ones who've passed on. They have been there for quite some time now... you do have to wonder if any were answered at all.

Now, in Stanage Plantation this would count as sacriligious despoilation of a fine boulder, although 'crimping on a prayer' may ring a boulder's bell or two.

First time to know that Prayer Beads (Sebha) and Blue Eye (Kharaza Zarka) are used anywhere but here in Egypt and other Islamic countries. They are almost identical to ours

Tiles with prayers at the Beomeosa Temple - South Korea

  

Beomeosa (Temple of the Nirvana Fish) is a head temple of the Jogye Order of Korean Buddhism in Cheongnyong-dong, Geumjeong-gu, Busan, South Korea. Built on the slopes of Geumjeongsan, it is one of the country's leading urban temples.

Chukhung Ri, 5410 m. This statue is simple (is anything simple at this altitude?) but very effective. Buddist prayer flags are bit worn out but still sending prayers forth!

 

Have you noticed how dark the sky looks in these pictures at altitude? This was taken in the brightest mid-day sun, no filters used, zero editing! The sky by right shoud be very pale blue if not completely overexposed - yet it isn't it! Amazing, huh?

 

Trekking in Nepalese Himalaya, 2005.

 

Many visitors to the Western Wall (Kotel) leave bits of paper ("kvittlach") with prayerful inscriptions between the cracks of the stones, in the hope that prayers deposited in this remnant of the ancient Temple complex will be heard directly.

This picture from Thimphu, Bhutan tells a story known to anyone who has visited Bhutan. There are many prayer wheels. There are too many dogs. They lie around peacefully all day and then they bark all night!

Although the government has tried to ban dog feeding, the Bhutanese, devout Buddhists, persist. It is a quiet scene by day, but you need earplugs to sleep at night.

“Prayer is not asking. It is a longing of the soul. It is daily admission of one's weakness. It is better in prayer to have a heart without words than words without a heart.” - Mahatma Gandhi
