Hallo mein lieber Freund, Suresh! What wonderful moments and facts you've shared with us in this awesome album of the most holy of Buddhist shrines. I took the leisure to linger for such a long time in this album and savoured each photo and of especially your captions, everthing was so fascinating...I've just returned from my over 2 month trip to Germany, and am struggeling very hard now to get started on my piled up work and messages....hopefully I'll have an album or two in a few weeks too...Have a most wonderful day, Suresh, and thank you so much for the invitation to see this treasure! Tschuess. Marita

Hi Suresh, great beauty in these pictures, a joy to look at. I don't know much about buddism, but it must be wonderful, the people look so serene, so calm, so different from my world, where everybody always seems to be in a rush for something. And thanks for your nice comments on my ''Sunset, Moon & Skies'' featured album. These are my ''quiet moment'' pictures. I can sit and watch the ever changing skies forever. #####. Montreal, Canada

Hello Suresh, it is always a pleasure and time of relaxation to come back to your wonderful albums. Thanks for looking at my poor albums and even commenting them. Ja, die paar Tage in Deutschland haben sich gelohnt, vor allem beruflich. Es ist herrlich wenn man das berufliche mit dem privatem verbinden kann und auch noch Zeit für ein paar Fotos hat. Herzliche Grüße von Galit

Hope you are well Take care now dear Suresh, Jill

Dear Suresh. Thank you so much for this impressive, beautiful and important album. It is so important to know about true surrender, which is forgotten in many parts of the world. Especially in these days with the crisis in Tibet, the catastrophes in Burma and China the truth is so hardly needed. All the best Anke

Dear friend Suresh, sorry for the not fast reply to your invite, but I've changed home and it's about a month that I haven't the internet connection yet. Here you have a fantastic reportage of yours. J like very very much the great collection of portraits in this album. There is also in these places a fantastic magic atmosphere that your great eye for photography represented so well. Hugs from Italy. Franco

Dear Suresh, It has been an incredible tour in the origin of Buddhism. Like all of your albums, you have here a combination of 3 elements: Magnificent architecture, well written captions about history and religion, and excllent people shots, which brings everything into life. Thank you, my friend, for this wonderful tour. I feel that I know more now about Buddhism (and I learn a few new words in English in any of your albums :-)). Thank you also for your visit and kind comments on my Herzliya album. All the best, Orly

Suresh, this is a very interesting album that I enjoyed very much to visit. All your pictures are very good, as always. But I like most your pictures of the pilgrims as I find it very hard to take good pictures of humans. You did a wonderful job! Thanks also for adding such informative captions, they make the album even better. I hope to see it featured in the near future, even that the chances are lower now with the new policy of WS. I have to be thankful to them that I could visit your album since when I tried to do that few days ago, none of the pictures were visible. I would like to thank you also for visiting my new album of Bet She'an. I'm glad to know that you enjoyed the virtual tour and the journey back in time. Thanks for all your comments! Wishing you a wonderful day, Yair.

Dearest Suresh, what a magnificent album! I have always been interested in Buddhism and find the information you present fascinating. That doesn't even take into account your outstanding photography, which of course is the basis for the whole incredible work. The portraits, as always, are outstanding and really show the devotion (or distraction!) of the monks and students. Thank you for this superb explanation of the origin of Buddhism and the Buddha's enlightenment. Hugs and warm wishes from Missouri, Beth

Dear Suresh, I have at last completed my comments on your marvelous photos. I have been through this album first as a slideshow, then in a study of the in-depth and informative captions, and then one by one to comment, and I am sure I will be returning again and again. You selected very intersting photos for the album and arranged it with great skill and care. Best wishes, Carol

Dear Suresh, first of all I'd like to thank you very much for your kind invitation to see this your new album. I believe it is a great collection of beautiful pictures, and also very well enriched with a lot of helpful historical and general information. I think you created a very beautiful and precious document about this important and splendid part of India. Thanks again for sharing this album with us, I hope to see it featured very soon. Best regards, Peppino.

pbonu 2008.04.21 at 02:30:35 PDT
Dear Suresh thanks for the invitation to this album. I enjoyed the history lesson as well as the great captures of the different remarkable places. Of course I enjoyed most of all the pictures of the Bodhi tree - but that is because I am admiring trees! Your pictures should be printed to books. They would be a great replacement for many not so well illustrated books. :-) So how old is the tree in your pictures. It can't be the same tree for 2000 years?! I just noticed that the coverpicture of your last album was featured a POTD while I was in Germany. CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am sure you had a very busy week! Have a great day! - Galit

Hi Suresh, this album contains one of the fines people portraits captured by you. Your shots of people always look like they are ready to be painted by an artist. You have excellent eye to capture them and the time of prayers or concentration. On the other hand this very spiritual place in your presentation shows the power of prayers. Impressive tour - thanks for sharing these photos. Thank you for visiting featured sunrise on Nile River photo. I remember your Egyptian presentation before our travel there. Friendly greetings, Rafal

Dear Suresh, thank you for this wonderful invitation to view this album.

As always, you have given us a chance to see your world. I am glad that you have given us this present... Trudy

Dear Suresh, I am glad that WS is now working and that members can view your new album. I have only seen the slideshow at this point, and needless to say the photos are once again your exceptional quality. Without reading your descriptions, however, much is meaningless to me. I will be back later when I can spend the amount of time needed to absorb all that you have written and once again learn from you. Til then - Carol

anttisarki 2008.04.18 at 21:18:50 PDT
Dear Suresh, I have not finished the viewing of this album of great interest which brings an extensive explanation of the Buddhist Religion and where one can learn that Buddha who was a Prince, is not considered as a God neither as a Prophet but only as a supreme teacher who atteigned Enlightment by ascetism then deep meditation and refusal of power and richness! Happy to comment first this important tribute to Buddhism! Jacques
