Wai Gongdho??? Gachi mo wai!!!

Elder sibling of mine was nicknamed 'Gondho' by his friends. Back then in 2008, I too was named as him. We were teased as Chinese and Japanese gondhos.
Those were gone days but our nick names remained as our identity even now.
Our old mates remember and call us by that name still.

At times I wonder whether my structure resembles that of egg or else I am extremely white as it. Quite hilarious to think about but I only take it as a fun. I don't mind.

Perhaps I thought it would only be my identity for a short while..  Yet amazingly it somehow became my official title when few of my old mates popularized the name at college as well. In the course of three years, people mostly regarded me by the name. Few only know me by that name, they don't know my real one..

Some of my friends call me as Anda, few regard me as Gotham and some says Egg.
In fact I don't mind..
And I am waiting to renew my CID and would love to change my name as well.. KinzaGondhoNamgay... haha
just joking..

The Ritual of Mandala Offering

    The Ritual of Mandala Offering       Mandala offering symbolizes an offering of the entire universe  and other priceless objects   present within it  to the Buddhas in order to accrue merit.  Manda  means the essence or midpoint and circumference and  la  means “taking hold of”. Thus,  mandala  refers to grasping the basis or essence for achieving all the magnificent qualities of the higher realms and the kingdom of Dharma, the sacred truths of cessation and the path.         As per the Buddhist cosmology, the earth is considered flat with a giant mountain, Mount Meru in the middle, bordered by four major continents, each with two main and several minor sub-continents. There are incalculable of similar realms and we visualize offering all these worlds considering them as unpolluted lands and offered to the Buddhas and great enlightened beings.      I would briefly explain t...

Why I became Vegetarian?

I actually decided to abandon my old consumption habit on  15th September, 2013 during one of the advocacy program which took place from our college till TrashiGang. I was asked to join the program representing one of the clubs called Y Peer. We were engrossed in uprooting marujuna plants along Kanglung-Trashing highway. After walking for almost 22 KMs, a delicious lunch was served. I chose vegetable item that time. Prior to my new habit I took all sorts of meat items including pork as my favorite one. After few months of joining College I had terrible experience of Boils on my butt. It recurred again when one got healed. In fact a patch of boils used to ruin me constantly. I was supposed to perform a class dance for Fresher's Nite but I couldn't. Likewise I was also exempted from participating in hostel Boedra competition.New comers were compulsorily asked to dance as a girl wearing all possible female attires and in fact the make ups. It was quite ridiculous to think off...
