a maze of tibetan buddhism

my buddy bill walks the walk

The outer perimeter of the monastery is called the kora (mispelled?).  These prayer wheels line the outside of the area.  The devout will grab each "prayer" wheel and give it a spin as they round the kora.  It took my friend Bill and I forty-five minutes to circumnavigate the kora, and we weren’t spinning any…
