Myanmar: My favorite photo

myanmar

While reading through some of the disaster stories going around, I stumbled upon this single photo that stood out from all the others. 

This photo is blissfully contemplative to my eyes, and sums up what I think every spiritual belief system should:  The timeless is untouched by  any changes of the earth. 

The rise and fall of empires elicits only an understanding smirk from the Buddha.

It's funny, but the imagined image of a monk meditating in the middle of a war, or perhaps, a storm was something that always attracted me to, and came to mind, when I thought of Buddhism. And here's that image. Thanks for that.
