Singing For Buddha.

                                                         

    Singing monks splashed yellow and red paint over the huge stone Buddhas. Behind them, the Himalayas glowed blue-white in the early morning sunshine.
    "Sir, careful of paint, sir," said someone.
    "Are they singing Tibetan prayers?" I asked.
    The monk laughed. "Is love song from Bollywood movie only, sir."

    I'm sure the Buddhas didn't mind.
