The tall and narrow window's got me going. It is quite unusual to have this type of windows in 'homes'. Because people like wide paranomic glass windows (like the one on its right) more. What can it be? A window at end of a flight of steps (a landing) or a hall way to let some light in? (German architects would prefer this -window- rather putting up -electric lights- as American architects would.)
Let us praise the Venerable Buddhadaasa for his illuminating insights and writing skill. Sadhu!
