At Tashilhunpo Monastery in Xizang, sharp clapping sounds echo through the courtyards. Though the energetic debates between monks might initially resemble arguments, this is Bianjing – a unique Buddhist learning tradition. Through these ritualized debates involving clapping and dynamic exchanges, the monks collaborate to analyze sacred texts and deepen their spiritual understanding.
