the smile

exclusive limited edition print 1 | 20

His Holiness traveled to this remote Himalayan valley in 2004, to give teachings, empowerments, and consecrate the Urgyen Sanag Choeling Monastery in Kungri.
I very fortunately was given the opportunity and permission to photograph his visit over 10 days to 4 villages.
The Spiti / Lahaul and Pin Valleys are accessible only in the summer months, via the 4550m Kunzum Pass, in these incredible, high altitude, arid valleys the simplicity and humility of the tribal peoples is astounding and very refreshing

the only way to describe him is beatific… whether or not you subscribe to his beliefs you have to admire both his conviction and his inner peace. A man with a great heart…
tim buckley replied

he doesn’t really have any beliefs, that’s the beauty of the buddhadharma, liberation from confusion, yes, a great heart who works tirelessly for his people and Tibetan culture…..
