A fact from Lamaling Monastery appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 13 February 2010 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that the Lamaling Monastery (pictured) in Tibet, rebuilt in 1989, is one of the largest and most important monasteries of Tibetan Buddhism in Nyingchi County?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2010/February.

sacrificial[edit]

Phallic worship and sacrificial to this symbol were also a part of their traditional practices. article says. i assume that is no proper english, however i have no idea what is actually the subject of taboo or the intend. my guess the original author means to say noone sacrificed theirselves. but possibly its just an error. is what is meant sacrificial ceremony? sacrifical practice? or sacrifice? up to someone that knows.24.132.171.225 (talk) 09:18, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Small temple???[edit]

Can this be right? "a smaller temple (of 20 square kilometres (7.7 sq mi)) was built below the old location on a flat land."

A small temple of area 20 sq km?? Baska436 (talk) 10:49, 13 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the area given probably refers to the complex as a whole, including the gardens, not just the temple. Baphijmm (talk) 08:52, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Grammar / References[edit]

I went through and fixed many grammatical errors in this page; however, there were a few things of which I could not gather the meaning. In addition, the Mayhew reference is mentioned, but never given a proper bibliography; I do not know what this text is from context. Could whoever added these references please include this? References are important, as they give readers a good place to read more about a given topic if they are interested. Baphijmm (talk) 08:03, 19 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
