Chanadorje


Chanadorje, originally uploaded by mutikonka.

Taken from above the Five Colours Lake (Wuse Hai), from the same spot as the previous picture of Shenrezig.

"Presently the clouds lifetd to reveal the Holder of the Thunderbolt - a truncated pyramid flanked by broad butresses like the wings of some stupendous bat. Immense masses of hanging ice and snow extend to the very foot of the mountain, where they form huge moraines resembling a huge ampitheatre. This the Konkaling people call the Konka Djra-nse, the Sea Dragon's Snout."
