You cannot go inside the Monastery but it is worth the walk to get to it
Monastere de la Grande Chartreuse的点评
点评:A friend of mine many years ago had an epiphany and decided to devote his life (he was a banker) to God and to his fellow human beings. It transformed him into a wonderful giving and caring person. As part of his conversion process, he became a monk and lived for a year or more in the Grande Chartreuse. For me the 45 minute walk from the parking area was a sort of pilgrimage (I had been here many years ago). I thoroughly enjoyed the walk up the road where there are no (or few) cars, past trees, fields, overlooked by the Chartreuse Massif, with only my thoughts for companionship, peaceful, toiling at times. as the road rose higher. I took many pictures of the outside, wondering what it was like inside and returns happy to drive home again.
翻译:多年前,我的一位朋友(他是一位银行家)顿悟,决定将自己的一生奉献给上帝和人类同胞。这让他变成了一个乐于奉献、充满爱心的人。为了皈依,他出家为僧,在大沙特勒斯山庄住了一年多。对我来说,从停车场步行45分钟就像一次朝圣之旅(我多年前就来过这里)。我非常享受沿着这条路走,路上没有(或者说很少有)汽车,路过树木、田野,俯瞰沙特勒斯山庄,思绪万千,只有对陪伴的渴望,宁静祥和,时而辛劳。随着道路逐渐升高,我拍了很多外面的照片,想象着里面是什么样子,然后高高兴兴地开车回家。
