The Ascetic Monk Finally Succumbed to the World

At a sacred place where prayer flags flutter, with stupas and snow-capped mountains as witness, he wears red and devotes himself to Buddha, shutting out the mortal world. Then she appears, bringing the warmth and tenderness of human life. The moment their eyes meet, it is as if the threads of fate quietly entwine. Even his heart, meant to be free of worldly attachments, is touched by the warmth and longing of the mortal world.
