Blank inside for your own message.

We came across a workshop making new clay images of the Buddha and Bodhisattvas in downtown Lhasa. These hands were part of a rupa, or statue, of Avalokiteshvara, the Bodhisattva of Compassion, known to the Tibetans as Chenresig. 
Several rupas were sitting on the floor, drying, before being given a final polish and being sent to the painter in another workshop.
