When I first saw these rock paintings at Drepung Monastery, I thought that's interesting how even non-living things like stubborn rocks can be chosen and became alive.
These three huge rocks were positioned next to each other in such a harmony, as if they were placed there on purpose by the monks. It didn't make any sense compared to the surroundings, but I liked to think it's some result of supernature.
I believed the rocks were empowered by the painted Tibetan Gods, and they were glowing in slight red, blue, and yellow. Them and the prayer flags around were the only ones alive in color, us and goats turned black and white.
