A sad saturday

Tweet

It's one of the biggest celebration of the year today for a practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism. I was hoping to spend the weekend at a nearby monastery to which I am very closely attached. Unfortunately I was late with the bookings and there are no rooms available anymore. My monk friends are sending me a bunch of Wish-You-Were-Here photos. If I were an authentic practitioner, then I would rejoice as the texts teach. But I am just a beginner and am feeling left out :-(
