“The flying bag, taken on Friday April 27, 1984. From my first photo-reportage in China. 1984.
I took a flight from Paris to Moscow, then, a train from Moscow to Peking: one week on the Trans-Mongolian train. Two days after our arrival, on the agenda was a visit to the Buddhist monastery Baoguang (literal translation: Heavenly Light) of the city of Xindu, in the Sichuan province.
On the wall, the symbol of happiness was carved, painted and embossed. According to tradition, Chinese tourists, starting fifteen meters from the wall, walking with eyes closed and arms outstretched, would try to touch the symbol right in the middle of the four embossed points. If they succeeded, it is believed that their life would be full of happiness. I still don’t understand the path of this flying bag, neither where it came from, nor where it would like to go.” — Guy Le Querrec
