an old man is holding a small object in his hand

Prayer. This grand old Ladakhi Buddhist man we met on our way to Lamayuru has prayer beads in his right hand which he counts in the fashion of a rosary while chanting the sacred mantra 'Om Mani Padme Hum'. In his left hand he is carrying a prayer wheel which he keeps spinning with a deft swing of his wrist. The wheel is filled with prayers and as it spins the prayers ascend to Heaven. What a nice way to spend old age!

These are not just your typical work clothes, but they express the dignity of Japanese monks, and at the same time, they are worn on various other occasions like cleaning, gardening, cooking, etc. They are also becoming popular as general casual or workwear, or even loungewear.
