Mongolia | Ulaan Baatar | White Tiger

Got a call asking if I would take some photos of Inner Mongolian Lama Sanjaachodbachoigijaltsan, a.k.a. Tsagaan Bar (White Tiger) and his students for a book he is preparing. Tsagaan Bar just finished leading a 100 day meditation retreat in Darkhan City, Darkhan Aimag, and is now going back to Inner Mongolia. He plans to return soon however and lead more retreats.

Below are some of the photos I took of him and his students. I did not choose the postures and hand positions and will not attempt to explain their significance.
