  • Bending forward as a mark of humility and respect for his deity, a young follower of Tibetan-Buddhism adjusts a prayer bowl in front of an effigy of Buddha at the Kagyu Samye Ling Monastery and Tibetan Centre in Eskdalemuir, Scotland. This young western man wears traditional Tibetan monk's clothes and many here have had a troubled youth, sometimes escaping a criminal past so arrive in the Scottish wilderness for isolated retreats and self-purification, short-term spiritual relaxation or to follow Tibetan teaching methods for discovering inner-peace, through prayer and meditation. This Tibetan Buddhist complex associated with the Kagyu school celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2007.

  • The Buddha seen as part of a shrine in the prayer room of Kagyu Samye Ling Buddhist retreat centre in Eskdalemuir, Scotland. A Buddhist shrine provides a focal point for Buddhists when they are meditating, practising puja (worship) and for gatherings of Buddhists studying together. Shrines can vary from a small, simple shrine in the home or garden of a Buddhist, through to the large, ornate shrines or temples found across the globe. At the Samye Ling monastery, most visitors are westerners in this peaceful location for spiritual cleansing and often to find answers to their complicated, modern lives. And many here have had a troubled youth and are sometimes escaping a criminal past, who arrive in the Scottish wilderness for isolated retreat periods, for short-term spiritual relaxation.
