Himachal :Dharamshala and Mcleodganj











TYPICAL BUDDHIST ARCHTECHTURE











PRAYER FLAGS :WINDS REACH THE BLESSINGS TO AS FAR AWAY





INSIDE THE TEMPLE
Tibetans have a strong connection with highlands and their music also reflects the msuic of the elements of highlands. Wlaking along the streets of Mcleodganj you observe tibetans all around you. Momo Shops C D shops garment shops memorabilia shops. But the air is different around you -its the divineness that is magnified by spiritual chants of Om Mane Padme Hum being played at many C D shops. Visit the Monastery visit the temple sit at a restaurant enjoy tibetan momos and some beer.
The one thing that puts Tibetans apart from others humans is their self belief . A resistance that has persisted itself in the most non violent form cant be crushed so easily. So cant be their spirits be put down.
Come down to the valley and you are in lower dharamshala enjoying the market and a picturesque valley view. Dharamshala will be known in history for two things : India 's tradition of welcoming guests like Gods and the Tibetans tradition of will to fight all odds and contribute to their society. No wonder the place is called Dharamshala : The Religious House.
