beggar girlThrere is also a photo gallery of the pictures I took at the school in 2007. The pictures are available at small and big resolutions. You are welcome to use any of these pictures in any way that you like, just so that any profits from the sale or use of these pictures go to the Pragya Vihar School.

I also took pictures of beggars when I was in Bodh Gaya that can also be used to help the poor of Bodh Gaya. On the Tom Riddle Youtube page, there are movies showing life in the village, and ceromonies around the Mahabodhi Stupa park..
