The sharp note of a chime woke me. My cheek was pressed against a chill window. Outside, glaciated peaks smouldered in the sun’s crimson rays. From upstairs came the sound of shuffling feet. Then chanting. I sat up slowly, careful not to rustle my sleeping bag, for Christine and the boys still slept. #family #KarshaGompa #meditation #monks #pocha
