What I get up to at the Kunzang Palyul Choling Temple!

I thought you would  like a few piccies of me hanging out with my community at the temple - more or less - and proof that I do cook and clean although for most of my life these skills have been in abeyance up until NOW! Miracles really do happen.

Here's me with my friend Jampal who is three times taller than moi!





And here's Jampal taking a picture of Ani Megan, myself, Lobsang and Dechen. It was an auspicious day to be out at the Stupa - but boy was it cold - hence my shoulders are located close to my ears.



So lets hop back inside where it's warmer. Here I am cooking a lovely warming dal soup for a wonderful visiting teacher - Khenpo Tenzin Norgey!


And now for the real miracle...I have the opportunity to clean crystals at the temple which contributes to the beautiful clear energy in the meditation, prayer/practice space. I really enjoyed the fact that my cleaning gloves matched my socks!


And here's me at a group practice with sister Nun's and another wonderful monk called Tashi Dawa - although I don't think he expected this photo to be taken - hence his expression. I am sitting next to Ani Sangye and Ani Atara is in the background.



And here's another occasion where I got caught by the camera of Ani Palmo. Ani Dawa is the blur of activity behind me. All these photos are around a food offering practice (Tsog) on behalf of all beings.

And here's one of me with my scaly mate as they would say in Australia - translated as - good friend - Ani Zing! We are out fundraising at a local shopping centre. Anyway hope that gives you a bit of a picture...what will I get up to next...who knows!
