Tibetan Buddhist monks during morning activities leading up to the "Sunning of the Buddha", when a huge silk thangka showing the image of Sakyamuni, the founder of Buddhism, is unfurled for a few minutes on a hillside during ongoing celebrations for Monlam, or the Great Prayer Festival, at the Nyentog Monastery, also known as Nianduhu on February 6, 2009 in Repkong, on the Tibetan plateau in northwest China's Qinghai province. The Monlam festival was established in 1409 by Tsong Khapa, founder of the Geluk (Yellow Hat ) tradition and is the greatest religious festival in Tibetan Buddhism. AFP PHOTO/Frederic J.
