Chusang Rinpoche, a Lama from the Drepung Loseling Monastery in India, pours sand from the mandala into a creek below Anglin Falls in Rockcastle County after the closing ceremonies culminating their week at Berea College on April 11, 2008. Berea was one of their stops on the Mystical Arts of Tibet tour. Berea College, which currently has 12 Tibetan students, has had a relationship with the exiled Tibetans since 1991 and the Dalai Lama visited the campus in 1994. The sand from the mandala they dismantled after spending days to constructing it in order to signify the impermanence of life, blessed by the monks, is to have healing properties.
