Namobuddha – a
temple full of life
We spot a temple with red pillars and black and white floors among the photos that Jenny, our guide, is showing us. Let’s go there! We drive along rough roads by car from Kathmandu. The Buddhist temple appears in the distance. Impressive and colourful. Large numbers of monks are wandering up the steep slopes to their temple. We enter the gallery where we get a sense of the essence of the Buddhist religion. We tiptoe up the wide staircase to a massive room where two hundred or more monks have assembled and are chanting prayers together. What a feeling!
The colourful entrance hall with its black and white floor is the perfect setting for our Stripes of Mustang collection. We try to be as unobtrusive as possible in this sacred building.
