Asymptote: Tibetans of Beijing by Lhashamgyal
https://www.asymptotejournal.com/nonfiction/lha-byams-rgyal-tibetans-of-beijing/
In Beijing’s night, neon lights flash on and off and the shadows of Beijing’s inhabitants flicker indistinctly. Packs of cars on the main roads form a river of light. In the midst of that river—constantly flowing like the kleshas of desire, hatred, and ignorance and glittering like the variegated colors of the objects of earthly desire—the lights spewed forth from the depths of the night. (translated by Kati Fitzgerald)
