No, it wasn't my sister, my father, my friend
it was a part of me that died.
I watched my city burn today,
watched it fight, fall. Watched it cry.
Watched in the safety of my home,
surrounded by family and friends,
while other lost theirs to this deadly theatrical act,
which seemed like it would never end
A few men, a few guns, their crazed ruthlessness,
calmly entering through the sea..
ending hundreds of lives, breaking thousands more.
making a billion more like me.
It seems surreal our very existence,
there's a void that can't be filled.
hollow and helpless, we wait, mute spectators
watching our people being killed
There have been heroes, who without a second thought,
for us laid down their lives.
In the futility of it all, their courage, their sacrifice,
inspires us in our strife.
Yet with every tragic unnecessary death,
I see the very value of life fall.
Who till an hour ago was somebody's husband,
is but another number to us all.
No, it wasn't my sister, my father, my friend.
it was for mankind that I cried.
For I watched humanity burn today.
Watched it fight, fall and die.

Giant prayer wheels in the Ghoom Monestary,Darjeling,India. By spinning the giat wheels (drums) the prayers are sent heavenwards. I believe they are spin continuously 24 hours a day every day of the year. They are bronze coated with gold leaf.
Each morning seminarians can take advantage of the opportunity for time in prayer before the Blessed Sacrament. This time of prayer is optional.

these three 2 metre-high paryer wheels were discovered by the North Sikkim Highway, enclosed in a tiny shack built over a stream, where the force of the water could be utilised to turn the wheels. (On each turn of the wheel a prayer goes up to heaven, thus creating Good Karma... or so they say... I wonder what the historical Buddha would have to say if he saw such attempts to effectively automate the process of enlightenment...)
Prayer wheels are found all over Tibet. When the wheel is turned, the prayers inside and carried into the air, earning merit - or good karma for the person turning the wheel. This prayer wheel house was made at Kagyu Samye Ling Monastery in Scotland - Europe's oldest and largest centre for Tibetan Buddhism. Prayer wheel house made by Rokpa Developments, Eskdalemuir, Scotland 2009. Wheels made in Nepal 2009.
After the alms rounds, the morning dhamma talk, with prayers, is conducted outdoors.
