GOLDEN BOULDER, PRAYING
AT THE PEAK OF MOUNT KYAIKHTYO IN EASTERN BURMA (MYANMAR) A PRECARIOUSLY-BALANCED GOLDEN BOULDER DRAWS WORSHIPPERS TO WITNESS THE ALIGNMENT OF THE FULL MOON. ATOP THE BOULDER IS A PAGODA INSIDE WHICH IS A SINGLE HAIR FROM THE HEAD OF THE BUDDHA, THOUGHT TO KEEP THE BOULDER FROM FALLING OVER THE CLIFF BELOW.
