I have never seen Tibetan monks but when they came here I was fascinated . As they all flocked into the dining hall the first night they arrived I was behind them in line. As they wondered around the kitchen they tried to pick the food they wanted for dinner. But at every station they went to they had a look of disguised when they saw the food. I started laughing because I noticed this and didn’t blame them. Also I’m almost positive that monks are vegetarians and most of the food that night was meat. (Good job Nichols!) Most of them settled for salad.
My only other experience with the monks was the constructing of the sand mandala. I viewed the masterpiece when it was about 90% completed. It was simply amazing, the amount of time and effort those men put in is remarkable. It is unlike anything I have ever seen, the detail and colors were remarkable. Unfortunately I had class so I didn’t get to take any sand home because I had class….bummer.
