Spectacularly set on a steep mountain in the Himalayas and founded in the 10th century, Lamayuru monastery, is the oldest spiritual center of Ladakh in Northern India. Although mostly in ruins with only a few buildings remaining beside the main assembly hall (Dukhang), it is still unsurpassed in its sheer grandeur of woodcarvings, statues and frescoes. The Dukhang was redecorated in 1970 with paintings depicting guardian divinities, and symbolism varying from benign to wrathful to serene. The Tibetan Buddhist attitude to spiritual art is that it has an inherent power to help the viewer come to self-realization by inviting contemplation of those aspects of our being which usually remain hidden.

This journal cover pays homage to the Tibetan love of exuberant decoration with the signature turquoise blue exquisitely embellished with gold. The Clouds midi traveller journal also includes ribbon page markers, memento pouches, and an elastic end-leaf enclosure.
