    Thank you anonymous for your concern and I really appreciate it. Actually it took me such a huge courage to violate the copyright law and put those images on my blog. Frankly speaking, I am not the person who scanned the booklet but I got an electronic version of the book. But in saying so, I am not trying to say that I did not violate the copyright law, of course I did by posting those scanned images here. I am also aware of the copyright law when i posted them here. I posted with so much apprehension since I am aware that I am breaking a law. But I thought it will be educative to those people who would like to read it. Now I realized that it does not serve as an explanation for the violation. So I think I did what is right: deleted those images before the author kicks my ass :).

    That is true but would depend where the IP is registered.

    If you can just acknowledge the source. That should be fine.

    Anyway today is world IP day and a post should be there on my blog by tomorrow morning about IP.

    have a look and have fun

Yak Legpai Lhadhar Gawo

Soe Jangothang, a small village near the foot of magnificent Mt. Jomolhari became the village for Chuni Dorji in 1922. Like most of his fellow citizens of his time, he never had the opportunity to enroll in formal school. He was everything but educated, yet he excelled in playing with words. He spent his whole life herding yaks, singing songs and dueling lozays. According to Kuensel (December 29, 2003), he became the singer and composer for His Late Majesty Jigme Dorji Wangchuk till His Majesty’s Death. Ap Chuni happened to compose one of the most beautiful songs from Bhutan: Yak Legbi Lhadhar. The combination of the melody and the emotional story it narrates has the capacity to bring tears to everyone who listens to it. The lyrics of the song is as follows: Soo yak legbi lhadhar zshel legsa Yak legbi lhadhar lhachu dhi Soo yak kayyul droyuel shedming go Yak kayyuel droyuel shed go na Soo thow gangri karpoi zshaylu lay Pang sersho khagyel thosa lu Soo ya metho baabchu legsa mo Yak rang...

LONGEVITY BLESSINGS AT TSELUNG NYE

Tselung Nye – the place of Longevity Blessings – is considered a sacred place of longevity blessed by Padmasambhava and other highly regarded masters. The site is serenely nestled between mountains and surrounded by mixed coniferous forest, with a small stream following nearby. The picturesque valleys along the hike trail While the site is connected with motorable road, we had to hike from Gidakom hospital since the road was undergoing some major maintenance. We can either hike along the road or choose to hike the ancient trail. The nearby villagers often use the trail and it follows a small stream. Various stupas, village houses designed in ancient Bhutanese architecture, the pleasing austerity of the surroundings make the hike exceptionally pleasant. Just a few meters from the parking lot, you will come across a spring water – believed to be blessed to give long life by the thousand dakinis. Further up, an imprint of the skull of the celestial beings is located on a roc...

Hoch Scholarship Program and Bhutan

“The Hoch Scholarship program is a small private scholarship program which provides funding for up to two Bhutanese grantees, currently in the field of electrical and hydroelectric engineering at the undergraduate level, for a maximum of four years. Grantees are selected by the Royal Civil Service Commission of Bhutan. Grants are full grants and cover tuition, room and board, insurance, airfare and grantax services. It is funded by an individual philanthropist and his family”, says the Information on Institute of International Education (IIE)’s website. That is the only information on this scholarship program which educated a handful of Bhutanese students in the United States in engineering fields. I am sure all those students are contributing towards the nation building process. I have been lucky enough to receive this same scholarship and study here in the United States. I am sure that the extraordinary experiences (be it in academic or non-academic fields) I gain here will help me ...
