I think that relics like this getting passed down is a great tradition. Not only has it been within the family for a long time, but it is a deep spiritual book that carries traditions that have been passed down. Unfortunately, I could not view the attachments. I would have loved to see what the book actually looked like.

Unfortunately, it appears the member deleted his attached pics in this older post, to perhaps clear space for attaching pics in newer posts.
