Just another picture of the lions, 'cos they are SO cool!!
Hoards of local Karate club persons acting as bodyguards / crowd control the morning HH is due.
And here he is walking up to the gompa from the stupa. There is frost on the ground, a loverly fresh morning, with the nearby mountains well covered in snow....
The culmination - He is reading through a book whilst thinking about Phillipa's request that he name the new meditation hall.
"Nalanda Hall", he said,
"Now you've done the physical work, the time has come to practice"
There is a (much) bigger version of this picture of HH here
