Foot Repair

When spring arrived and the weather warmed up once again, the residents moved the Buddha statue to a small shaded tent just beyond Lhawang Gatsal, the main shrine room, so repairs to a damaged foot and robe could be made. A local auto body shop owner took on the challenge of making the repair and selecting the perfect shade of gold paint.
