Prayers and Peace

These photos are from the Gyuto Monastery in Sidhbari, Himachal Pradesh. Sidhbari is around 6 kms from Dharamshala and this monastery serves as the residence of Karmapa Ogyen Trinley Dorje. The Karmapa is the official title given to the head of the Karma Kagyu school, which is one of the four main schools of Tibetan Buddhism.




This beautiful monastery is situated right at the foothills of the mighty Dhauladhar range, and a place where peace prevails. Inside the sanctum sanctorum, there are religious relics and beautiful display of traditional Buddhist butter sculptures. In my next post, I will share some photos of the display in clicked inside. Hope you liked this post.
