Day
When a wood at night feeling fantastic! Gang Xing discovered the morning hungry, fully shows the state has been restored. Unkempt brush to see the mirror of ourselves, Yi Gu from the bottom of my heart filled with pride: This is physical, not to say that!
The morning of the examination is painful for students, we have it not do - end the fix in order to go to the Potala Palace ah. Ultimately harm us would like to thank almost regrettable purchase card system. In order to avoid excessive flow of cultural relics destroyed, the Potala Palace, a limited sale of tickets for each day must give at least two days to buy tickets card, ticket vouchers, and to a specified time before the entry into, out of date is not waiting. So, we basically have been driven out of the classroom.
The Potala Palace is located in Red Hill, the tour will only go up from the back of the Palais, the locals worship the mountain from the front only. So we alighted from the vehicle, and did not imagine the shock of seeing the landscape, but by trampling was almost no sign of step slopes. Each section of 30 meters or so, probably gone in paragraph 78 (at the time did not note that these figures are the current estimate), to the same as the ordinary courtyard entrance gate, in addition to surprise, we can only as big as the summer's pekinese mouth breathing a.
To enter the small door, at first glance in the past really did not know where is the visitors entrance, only to feel the heavy breath of life. Sure enough, here is the guide first introduced the toilet, also suggested that there is no need to visit at least look inside the deepest pit called. The first one to visit the Potala Palace, the project is really impressive!
Bearing in mind a series of notes and then we was only brought into the Red Palace. Not permitted acts include photographs, video, finger Buddha, but also can not just sit Lama futon - people who eat whole grains dirty. We should go in a bow bent over, from the Buddhist scriptures the following walk through before they see the first one hall "rush around Lacan." Had in mind would like to show off more as a future capital, later found to remember more than a dozen, "Lacan" and the Panchen Lama, the Dalai Lama's name is simply impossible, so now money and ended up on the names of the players on such a child. No knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism for me, visit the Potala Palace is mainly followed by tour guides in the maze of building on the same walk through ears to listen to those who have never heard the name of the person's story, Deng Yuan eyes to see pagoda, Buddha body of precious jewelry, Zhang mouth and many visitors to grab the air. The growth of knowledge but find out the previous Dalai Lama and the Panchen Lama had been confused by the relationship between the teacher-student relationship. A half-hour visit, see, hear the confusion in the mind, not had time finishing on the almost forgotten.
Jinding in maintenance, the White House is only open a small part of the cursory lap unknowingly arrived on the exported. The true feelings are formed at this time. Here is the door of the Potala Palace, the ordinary Tibetan people from here, to see the majestic side of the building are here.
Head of the Tibetans came home with a mouth, some drag, some mutter prayers, as well as older or is all the way back over the. Initially only emotion in their piety, and when we want to hurry down the mountain to escape the midday sun exposure, but found to be powerless when the Tibetan people truly feel the power of faith. Finally went down the mountain, looking at the Potala Palace, feeling that it has to accept believers to worship at the boldness of vision. Under the momentum of its own seems to gradually reduce the ... ... In fact, only a real shrink the stomach.
To find a Tibetan restaurant in the vicinity, no one sat down was vegetable scared and wanted to escape, because of the face and stomach, point two yogurt. Fasting is definitely not wise to eat yogurt, and we have no regret their choice: This is high enough concentration of yak milk, acid was strong enough Road. The only after eating the lips and teeth are not used to be a slight edge there is smell, of course, did not eat.
Pay a visit to Tibet, not even buttered tea tasted no two slander insects put the task of looking for cheap Tibetan restaurant to the human 3. But some things have their own clear, for example does not point "two cups of butter tea," because people are based on pot count. Rather is an open bottle, the size difference between substituting. Fell to the bowl of buttered tea not as imagined sticky, but I like the mellow type, as for taste, a little greasy, I drank two bowls of. Had wanted to try tsampa, I heard that raw beef should be with sauce on the retreat of the. At present, some regret, since to go to Tibet, why not learn other people uninhibited one?
Without food to a decent meal Tibetan, Tibetan spiritual insight I have to. They like to wear a variety of jewelry, hair, colorful clothing, and even with a knife is a symbol of individuality. No matter how you wear clothes that are naturally, and never worry about the disapproving attitude of others, nor does it seek to show off, this is the highest realm of cool ah!
Fourth day
Qingchenwudian are brushing colleagues alarm clock awakened the sleeping I am. These days receive a complete pain in patients with insomnia, sleep is very shallow, almost always stand up will be awake. Nevertheless, the thought of 11:30 so I have to drive to the airport, we feel that "time is running out," can no longer sleep.
5:30 colleagues began pondering bid farewell to the monks prostrate themselves before the Jokhang Temple is the see, or have a beautiful name Norbulingka, or to the street was transported back to search a number of native distribution. Unfortunately, this city wake up time is 9:00, my patience in the second hand of the suffering endured beating. In fact, idle land also climbed in bed fugue pleasant Shier pieces of their own at the same time enjoy bringing joy, if also to give someone else the better. I was thinking at that time make big bag stuffed yolk pie, instant noodles, in exchange for a few children's smiling faces.
Found out drizzle outside, I feel like a guy who saw the rough wear colorful jewelry, but also fortunate to be able to Nikko City, another informative style.
Going to go through the Potala Palace, Jokhang Temple, the faithful lined up at the foot of the mountain road, much of the public visit the palace of God Buddha longer a standing force is in the wait. However, the Jokhang Monastery after twenty minutes saw the scene so I doubt that this nation is not a full believer?
Basilica of space similar to a "return" character, the small population dedicated to the great Buddha, the middle part of the two pedestrian crossings, in particular is the big mouth is not closed, its periphery was like petals, like there are many small hall. The entrance hall is generally long line, each small hall is crowded, as visits to a clockwise, so the whole channel has been the most outside the actual flow of people surrounded near the mouth of a small part of the space to provide information for those of us who cursory people walking. We really concentrated Xiangfo see, though crowded, order is maintained very well. Waiting for some self-serving people who remembered scriptures, and some focus on looking at the flames beat butter lamps, even the kids were unusually quiet.
My anxious tourists who had not been infected, in order to Princess Wen Cheng brought insight Sakya Muni 12-year-old life-sized golden image, inserted into the ranks of the shrine. Tibetans are generally portable to open bottles, guess do, which is the butter, add your own in front of the Buddha worship. However, too many people, it is impossible to get everyone closer to the Buddha, so they bring their own bottles into the front of the hall to the monks and lamas was handed by the Buddha to turn out a lap later to reclaim their own bottles. For people on both sides of the Buddha's Koubai stage, in front of me near the idol who especially value the opportunity to refuse to lie on the steps up, his mouth still mutter prayers. Waited at the side of the lama out Ju Zhao, grabbed his clothes back and fling out, see I did not dare solace: You can do so Eurya me so solemnly. Fortunately Lama probably know less pious stranger, look at me a jittery look, but also for fear that I fell, supporting a bit. Lama visit the original part has a guard, mainly for controlling the believers Koubai time.
In such an environment people will not Buddhist devotees some fear and trepidation, but I am disobedient nature has not change - secretly used the camera. Is not a disrespect to the Buddha, I just want to record such an atmosphere. They bigotry for giving me this atheist enlightenment on the other hand: who has a firm belief or clear objectives, ability to overcome difficulties is infinitely large. When I followed a group of believers has completed a week of turning around the Dian Wai Road, this experience is even more profoundly. His right hand to promote brass by the cylinder rotation, mouth constantly recited the sixth mantra "OM MANI moo Hum," come to the stage 20 meters to breathe air, their hands are sore, but focused attention to the ever-mantra, the surprise has completed the last hundred meters through the Road.
Read read, how can preach up? But it did not have time, and the aircraft will not be others. This piece of mysterious land, we must wait, I will come again!
Postscript: As the weather conditions did not meet to take off the plane three hours late, after stops in Chengdu Shi You delay, and landed at Beijing Capital International Airport time is 1:10. During this time, it also let me know a friend of Tibet, the Beijing Office was originally me to help her share of baggage, did not offer much help, but in the middle of the night people take the trouble to send me home. This is not a Buddhist say good will be rewarded?
