Searching for a Miracle

The mystery of the incorruptible Buddhist Lama Itigelov

Religion and education are inseparable here. Enlightenment isn't possible without knowledge, inner peace - without hard work, joy - without prayer.

Ivolginsky Datsan in Burytia, Eastern Siberia, is Russia's main buddhist monastery. It includes a buddhist university, where students from Buryatia and beyond prepare to become lamas, or teachers, themselves.
