Offering

“Maybe I joined the nunnery because it was my karma.”–Molan Zangmo, 25, store in charge at the Karma Drubdey Meditation and Retreat Center, Trongsa.

Molan Zangmo holds her nun’s robes in front of her mouth in a gesture of respect used when receiving blessings and giving offerings to the Buddha or other deities.

She joined the nunnery at the age of 16, and felt that she had no idea why she joined except that she felt it was her destiny.

Her greatest hope is to benefit through her prayers all sentient beings, and wishes for universal peace.
