Day 10: Luang Prabang

While in the Wat Xieng Thong complex, I wandered into one one of the temples that was packed full of artifacts. In this photo, I captured an assortment of buddha statues. But there were lots of things: altars, carriages, urns, other stuff.....
What struck me is that I wanted to present the appropriate level of reverence but I wasn't sure how. This level of uncomfortableness or tension can sometimes lead to learning or so I hope. In any case, I love the opportunity of being out of my element and being faced by something I don't quite understand. It's a chance to grow.
