Sand Mandala of the Buddhist Monks of the Drepung Loseling Monastery of Tibet

At the church where Mary takes Chinese dance lessons, The Buddhist Monks of the Drepung Loseling Monastery of Tibet are constructing a Sand Mandala.

Last year it took the monks just over two weeks to construct it and we were able to watch for 3 Sunday's in a row. Yesterday was the only day we were able to see it this year. We did not have dance class over Thanksgiving weekend and Mary's dance performance is this coming Saturday, so there will be no dance practice on Sunday.

It is fascinating to watch the monks make this.
