The Monks of Myanmar | Iñigo Bravo

This collection shows buddhism daily life, praying, collecting offerings, practice meditation and keep calm in the colourful and fascinating Myanmar.

Myanmar is a religious country with more than 85% of the population practice buddhism. It’s common for children spend period of time as a monk in a temple and at the end decide to come back with parents or follow holy religion. Most of poor families send their sons to get free education and learn life values. There are innumerable sacred places for buddhism, from vast landscapes full of pagodas to the golden rock precariously perched on the top of a mountain. These locations are pilgrimage spots to monks and devots.

The chromatic tones, offered by monks with their red robes and shaved heads praying in temples covered by golden leaves, are visually astonishing.The most wonderful thing is to feel the peaceful that they transmit and how they evoke serenity and spirituality.
