The hall at Wat Suthat was quiet. Inside there were some worshippers and Buddhist monks dressed in orange robes. The monks were busily working at an altar in front of a large Buddha statue. Apparently, they were preparing for a ceremony or festival.

The bespectacled monk in the photo was also working with his companions. No matter how much the monks moved around him, the golden Phra Si Sakyamuni remained motionless. He was quietly keeping the sign of the demon exorcism, and warmly watching over the monks who were moving around below him.
