Prostration is your friend :)

I was immediately drawn to the young man who traveled so far across Tibet (1300 miles to date) with the focus of Prostration. At so many levels he seemed to embody the possibilities of Tibet and humanity. I shot a video of two full cycles of his locomotion (see two shots below).

    Hi John and James, I stumbled upon your blog by mere coincidence (well, by mere karma) and I enjoy it a lot. As a Mexican student of Tibetanb Buddhism I find your posts and photos deeply motivating. Some day, I plan to visit Tibet and do postrations before the Potala! (not 1,300 miles, but I will do my bit)
    May your travel be safe and may you both gain great merit!
