I look at the Thangka every day and, just yesterday, I had friends in and they started asking me about it. I explained how long you apprenticed and how each piece of material is cut then sewn. When I look at it I see not only your hard work and the months it took you, but it reminds me of the importance of staying true to the Godly part of myself. We fortunate humans get caught up in the trappings of our everyday life of material wealth. Nice as those things are, our real wealth and value is not in our material belongings but in who we are at our core.
