Photo by Emily Polar @emilypolar Thousands of little butter lamps made from vegetable ghee light up the Boudhanath stupa in Nepal every night. These illuminating lamps are symbolic of original pure awareness made as an offering and or aspiration prayer to bring light and awareness as far as awareness pervades for liberation of all sentient beings. This night was a busy one as you can tell by this mans expression. #Nepal #Boudha #stupa #butterlamps #natgeotravel
