A Monk at Kajiu Monastery in Tibet
Kajiu Temple is the place where Master Padmasambhava spent 7 years in retreat. The vegetation is lush, the herbs are magical, and even the trees are hairy. When visiting Kajiu Temple, you must hike down to the canyon. There are also many practitioners in the canyon of Kajiu Temple, but this is definitely a super holy place. The conditions here are extremely difficult. Almost all the homes of practitioners are built in on the cliff On May 22, 2022, I came to this place and met a famous monk who practiced here. I didn’t know his name, but he was very kind and agreed to let me take this photo of him.
