RE: Throw back Thursday, remembering a road trip through Ladakh, where have the last 10 years gone

in Throwback Thursday4 months ago

Many Tibetans who fled and were exiled to India send at least one child to a monastery to learn about their own culture, language and religion, (one less mouth to feed I guess).

This is sad. I mean it is important to learn about the culture, but voluntarily, not by force.

Tibetan monks take a vow of celibacy are not allowed to have sex or marry, they believe that a life free from romantic and sexual relationships and family responsibilities provides the best conditions for practising Buddhist teachings. Well seriously?

😂

Excellent shots as always!

Happy new year! 🎉
