Stone Bridge

DO-ZAM, The stone bridge Bumthang Dzongkhag consists of four Gewogs choekhor, Chumey, Tang and Ura. The serene region is considered a sacred place by the Bhutanese and ancient tales of religious treasure-discoverers still persist today. Amongst all, one is an astounding tale of stone bridge locally known by the name  Do-zam which is in between Kurjey Lhakhang and Pangrey Village under Choekhor Gewog. The locals be of the opinion that the Do-zam was manoeuvre by the Dakini over crossing Chamkhar chhu to connect two places. Unfortunately, the rooster crowed at the break of dawn where the Dakini fled the place leaving the bridge incomplete. People be convinced by the tale where the Guru statues at Jakar Lhakhang, Tamzhing lhakhang and Tang Remochen lhakhang were made by the Dakini. When she fled, the statues at Tamzhing and Jakar lhakhang were incomplete where we can see the statues without the hat(Ueezha) today. It was once used as a cremation ground  at one side of the bridge ...

Divorce

DIVORCE As we grow up, we plan for future forgetting the uncertainity of life. It's a great thing to have better plans for anything making the moments and the memories enchanted until we leave the world. But everything does not come our way as we plan. Divorce is one of the occurrences that the planners have not planned for the future. It can be awkward at times, to think in terms of everything happening for a reason, but it can also be pleasant. Sometimes,  when we are going through a particularly onerous time like divorce, it can be very comforting to think that there is a purpose to this and there will be a benefit for what the person is going through the moment.  Through my observation, Bhutanese divorce is breaking of matrimonial knot throbbing the couples who once promised to take the last breath in each other's arm gets separated for a reason. Some of the reasons for Bhutanese divorces are:Failing to the commitments-adultery for money and infidelity, lack of open commu...

What makes the perfect combination? Spring and the book has the perfect combination. What I need is the beautiful blossoms that brightens the earth and to see the greenness grow over  brown beds indicating the rebirth instead of destructions.The truth that life can go on, no matter how bad our losses. That can be good again. Human heart is a whimsical as spring weather welcoming and positive. At times, we should understand that all human are not same and never fail to understand them. For that, books will be safer than people anyway. It guides and encourages you. Show you a better path and makes you better human. Most importantly, it gives you positive environment. Therefore, books and nature plays the crucial role for bookworm and bibliophile. Read, learn, understand,  live in your own world and love nature. Be positive no matter what situation you may have to face it. Just face it and remember it will go away someday.

He at the out set travelled through Jomolhari where he discovered the first treasure and then travelled to Bumthang into and out of  Baylangdra with the prophecy to find a girl named Pema Chuki who would accompany him in discovering the treasures. The ruler of Bumthang had suspicion and demanded on him to prove himself to the people of Bumthang.

Solidarity conquers adversity

Solidarity Conquers Adversity We know that the brutally nasty corona virus, which broke out in Wuhan, China, has killed many people around the world. The number of infected people skyrockets every day.   This viral epidemic has now been declared as the global pandemic by the WHO. It has been a source of fear, panic and anxiety triggering a global economic meltdown. On a hindsight, it reminds us of the impermanence of life and the futility of our attachment towards wealth and loved ones. The power, wealth, status and character are not differentiated by the deadly virus. Apparently, it is immune to corruption and doesn't leave anyone who comes in contact with it. Understanding its lethality, the world leaders are tirelessly working hard to combat and contain it. Bhutan is blessed with the compassionate and dynamic King and adept Government of the day, who have taken diligent measures to ensure the health and safety of the Bhutanese both at home and abroad. We owe our deepe...

Negativity

Negative people are the dangerous virus that kills your inner peace. We should be able to recognize the people with negativity thoughts and behaviors. Some of the traits of negative people are: 1.Gossips:People who talk about others, those who criticize and agonize behind their back and most likely people who talk behind other people around you, they will probably talk about you when you're gone.

They will be characterized by conceited assertiveness and dogmatism. 3.Dominant: People with this nature will try to control over you no matter where they stand and will create disharmony in your surroundings.  You should never indulge them in your circle. 4.Jealous Hater:People who admires you inside but are jealous.  They will devalue you and call you inadequate for t...
