Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Jokhang is the spiritual center of Tibet, the Holy of Holies, the destination of millions of Tibetan pilgrims. The outer courtyard and porch of the temple are usually filled with pilgrims making full-length prostration towards the holy sanctum (the longer they do this the better). Its innermost shrine contains the oldest, most precious object in Tibet - the original gold stature of Shakyamuni - the historical Buddha, which Princess Wen Cheng brought from Chang'an 1,300 years ago. Lhasa, Tibet
Pilgrims will often make full-length prostrations for hundreds of miles from their villages to get to the Jokhang Monastery. |
