LEARNING TO PRAY, ORIGINAL LEARNING TO PRAY, FINE ART PRINT The image on the giclée print of "Learning to Pray" is 8.5" x 11.5", printed on 11" x 14" archival, acid-free rag paper. It is limited to 60 editions. In this painting one can see a few of the hundreds of people worshiping along with the Dalai Lama in the Tsuglagkhang, or Central Chapel, in Dharamsala, India. This building is the exiled government's equivalent of the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, and the most important Buddhist monument outside of Tibet. The service is 2-3 hours long and the atmosphere is spiritual yet casual as the adults and children come and go, bow, chant, drink tea, nurse babies and so on. The young child in the middle is learning to pray and do prostrations (bow) from watching those around him.
