Nanhang Fulilai Hotel Zhangjiajie

Fate at the Puguang Chan Temple - Part II

by mke1963

An hour later, my guide who had defiantly said that she was a total aetheist, received a phone call offering her an opportunity to travel to Beijing, Xi’an and Inner Mongolia as a lead tour guide. She had been talking a lot about how her dream was to travel to other places. We should have world peace by next Tuesday at this rate.

I walked away from these gentle men with a lot of my faith in people restored. They went back to being – well, just simple folk – keeping God company during the hot, humid afternoon. As I left Zhangjiajie, I was talking with the guide and she said that on Saturday she was going to go to the temple again on her own and ask the monks to tell her what it all meant. I’m not a religious person really, but it was all very rewarding.

I review the temple buildings and its history separately.
