A Short Break
On Thursday morning, the monks and instructors took a break from the classroom. The monks planned to hang traditional Tibetan prayer flags from the trees above the Deer Park Institute. First, they lit a small fire and chanted a few prayers. Then they unraveled the long ropes with the prayer flags and hung them from the surrounding trees. Some monks had to climb up tall trees (with their bare feet) to find good spots to anchor the flags. The monks then chanted again before they formed a circle and threw some fine powder in the air.
