Prayers Counted In Tibet By Numbered Devotion
Tibetan devotion is measured by tallying prayers as figures and devices. A man charts prayers on a board dipped in water with each dip a prayer while another uses a windmill inscribed for every revolution. Women carry small whirligigs kept in motion and yak shoulder blades inscribed and hung as prayer sets along paths. Travel requires moving past the wind and blade symbols, with climbers placing prayer flags at peaks.
