Prayers at a Monastery in Majuli
We had arrived in Garamur Satra–one of the many Vaishnavite Monasteries in Assam’s Majuli Island–late in the morning, just in time for the morning prayers. The day was beginning well as the sun shined bright and dispersed the winter chill that had settled in through the night. Inside the Satra, its spacious temple and prayer hall were nearly empty as two monks arrived to perform morning prayers. It was quiet, aesthetic and peaceful–a combination of all this that emanated energizing vibes.
