Picture Story

Beautiful View from Naddi View Point (Dharamsala) November 1, 2018 

I love this picture particularly because I can relate it to life in so many ways:

༄ The turns on the road talking about the turns we have/take in life. The upper road being more wide and clear talks about how we fight our troubles and reach the brighter side. It shows how bright the light is at the end of the tunnel. Keep doing your Best!

༄ The picture also talks about view point, what you see through this small lens of the telescope may not always be the exact same of what I see. Thus, it is impossible for two different people to feel the same, have the same opinion and view point all the time. So, it doesn’t mean someone else is wrong just because his/her opinion is different. Respect people's opinion.

༄ This picture also talks about how beautiful a view is when the place is clean and bright, so don’t throw garbage, keep your city clean. And keep some sunshine on your face :)

108-Kora (circumambulation) of Dra Karpo Lhakhang in Paro, Bhutan

Image
In Buddhism, kora (which means circumambulation) is the act of walking around the sacred site in a clockwise direction. Buddhist pilgrims do kora of the religious temples, sites, objects, etc to gain spiritual merits; cleanse sins of past and present lives and purify negative karma; and to attain spiritual and mental enlightenment. Pilgrims usually recite mantras and say prayers as they do the rounds. Bhutan being a Buddhist country, Kora is very prevalent and no temples are usually seen without pilgrims doing koras. However, the trend of 108-kora is quite a new thing in Bhutan, started or at least grew its popularity only a few years ago. It may have existed earlier amongst the elders but it became a good new thing to talk about and show off on social media handles recently, me being one of them :D. Honestly, apart from gaining spiritual merits and   cleansing  off sins, I don’t know the specific reason behind circumambulating the temples 108 times. Of course, the fact that t

Trip to Iseltwald, Lake Brienz & Lake Thun, Interlaken and Sigriswil 🇨🇭

Image
Let me start by stating, Switzerland in Autumn/Fall is a Paradise, perfect weather, colorful leaves/forest, a touch of snow on the mountains, autumn flowers (especially the wild ones), blue sky turning into pink after sun set – truly truly a Nature Heaven. Fall, especially the second half of September till the first half of November is the best time to visit Switzerland, I strongly recommend. We started our journey early in the morning from Geneva in a car, so that we have enough time for sightseeing, we planned to visit many places. Our host was a lovely Bhutanese family in Bern, where we stopped for a cup of tea on the way and unloaded our stuffs. From Bern, we were joined by the host family. We drove to Iseltwald first, a beautiful, serene and a colorful village  on the south shore of Lake Brienz,  well known for the filming of popular K-drama, Crash landing on you. It looked more beautiful in real, deep blue lake, snow capped mountains, stunning landscape and colorful forest th

Visit to Five Tsheringma Lhakhangs in Paro, Bhutan

Note :  Had completed the draft of this article in 2018, right after the visit but thanks to my laziness and mild A lzheimer (created my own disease) it was left incomplete. Did a bit of revisit to my incomplete work today and here it is for your reading pleasure and reference for the visit, in a layman’s way of expression.  In Buddhism, the five Tsheringma sisters as the name suggests are the Goddesses of longevity or long life. It is believed that if one worships the Goddess, he/she will be blessed with long life and good fortune. We visited the five temples in December 2018, believed to be the abode of the five Tsheringma sisters, all located in Paro in the four different directions. Legend has it that, if one visits all the five temples in a day, the Tsheringma sisters would grant you with all your wishes and bless you with good fortune. There is supposed to be an order of visit to the five temples, some believe the visit should start from the eldest sister's templ
