The Buddhist monks from the Drepung Gomang Monastery had spent two days meticulously pouring sand into the intricate mandala design, but it took a small boy only a matter of seconds to undo their hard work.
In the words of Lama Chuck Stanford, of the Rime Buddhist Center in Kansas City “he did a little tap dance on it, completely destroying it.”
The monks saw the destruction Wednesday.
“No problem,” Geshe Lobsang Sumdup, leader of the group from the Drepung Gomang Monastery in southern India, said through a translator. “We didn’t get despondent. We have three days more. So we will have to work harder.”
I just love the monks attitude to this.
