dranang temple


dranang temple, originally uploaded by timon and keely.

usually only lit by candles or the light from the entrance, the temples are dark cool places, perfectly for prayers and meditating. when i walked around it alone, there was a deep drum beating and the doors were shut. i came back with the ladies and we were ushered inside where monks' robes and pillows were still laying around the various meditation benches. it is small, local and has a wonderfully warm radiance.
