If you have experience of listening music at night, definitely you would have experience a feeling which is different from your normal feeling about our life. Particularly the music related to Dharma like Gurma (song of Milarepa) and song describing the great lama. The scenario of night with calm and peace is present that instant time of night is under control of complete silence except the chirping of insects and few birds. Another instant of time will come where everything is silent and only the moving of river or stream sound will be heard if you are near river or stream. The melody you played will be heard in your ears differently. The meaning of every line of lyrics if you understand, we will have feeling that sadden ourselves by looking into deeds we performed.

The sudden melody like Gurma (the song of Milarepa) at early morning in between 2:00am to 4:30am that you set as alarm ring tone when it rings will bring you a deeper feeling about our life. The ringing of ring tone of alarm out of environment under control of silent inform us the immortal of life. The feeling at the first instant will none other than sad. You may think your life is meaningless. It is the instant of time where every human is on another world dreaming in their dream and snoring of people near you make you to think beyond what you think normally. You will feel like everything is empty and your body is empty. You will feel like you lose something when you think deeper and deeper at that moment.

To realize the feeling at the situation where everything is under control of silent, play melody (The song of Melarepa) at the instant time of silent at night. Above is what I feel at that moment of night.

Expert said that one should look into mirror before you say something, particularly flaw to others. In our day to day life what above sentence mean is that we should always tell and talk with others with good words. The people should be happy if not normal (what he was before we talk with) after we talk with them. They sympathy and soft words that make other happy should be used instead of harsh and bad words.

More important, we have to keep in mind is way of joking and limit of joking. If we can avoid joking, it’s more than a good solution to avoid misunderstanding between our friends. Through joking many misunderstand will be created. Moreover joking is also a sin from the point of religion, as we utters none sense while joking. I regret for not fulfilling the promise. The promise of avoid joking with friends. Today 8^th day of 7^th month of Bhutanese calendar on auspicious day of the month, I promise, I will lead life of humble man. Let me try avoiding joking with friends.

With regards to the words of conversation, it’s wise to be insisted in formal language with good words. We speak with good words and the listener will be happy with what we insist. Speaking humbly with good words that hurt no one will cost or lose you no money. For our good way of conversation, the good merits deed will be considered. I am man who has problem in talking with friends. I always talk and comment as if I am the king. On top of commenting, I used harsh and bad words that hurt my friends. I felt myself sorry for innocent deeds. In deed I have no intention of hurting anyone with my words but out of frustration the words that have no value and respect in society were uttered one after another. I regret for my mistake out of ignorance. Now, realizing with my mistake ask me to be cautious while talking with friends. Did you realize of your mistake in way you talk? If we are to look into the mirror of our mind and speech after our deed with carefully, we are making mistake sometime.

Trip to Threlma Lhakhang

                    The Trip to Threlma Lhakhang.

We the members of Nangpai Zhenu (The young Buddhist) made trip to Threlma Lhakhang (located 2km from College of science and Technology) on 18^th of August 2013 lead by our prayer secretary and lopen Tshering, then the Dean Research. The trip to Threlma Lhakang was neither for fun nor for pilgrim. The only reason behind was to contribute something that will benefit to the people residing or monks who resides when they performed puja.

The emotional intelligence should be utilize for beneficiary purpose rather to waste in making nothing contribution to the society. The more important in today’s ages of world is EQ (emotional question) than an IQ (intelligence question). If a person is rich in EQ, the society considers him to be the best. A man with IQ is expected to have much ego than man with EQ. The helping hand will come if we have EQ rather than personal benefit with IQ. We the members of Nangpai Zhenu believe in EQ and 18^th August 2013 trip to Threlma Lhankhang was scheduled.

Usually, we start our morning prayer at 6:00 am but today we could start only at 6 pass as the consecration of Sertong of Mani Dungkhor 1 was in the line. The lama from CST gonpa consecrated the completion and building of Sertong in Dungkhor. We gathered in front of  Block D to moved towards Threlma Lhankhang at 8:30 am. As soon we arrived Lhakhang, we started cutting grass around the Lhakhang. 
I thank you on behalf of members and on my own behalf to Lopen Tshering and Caretaker (keynyer) of Lhakhang for refreshment served.

As we moved down, we came repairing road towards Lhakahng from higway. The filling of stones in the hole made by running water during rain and cutting of grass and bushes right and left of road was done. Finally, we were able to complete the task and reached to highways road. The plants that can be seen in the photo (sorry, I don’t know name of the plant) was taken from on the way to College to plant in College campus. We plate behind RK (Rinchen Khangzang)  and remaining in front of Block A. 

We the members are always ready for future trip to Lhakhang and many more.

Nangkor Gathering

                                 Nangkor Gathering.

The tradition of Nangkor gathering which was first introduce by 2009 batch of Nangkor student of CST. It was formally organized in 2012, in the summer semester as a farewell for 2008 batch (in their final semester) of Nangkor student here in College of Science and Technology when they are passing out. The trend of gathering continued in 2012, in the winter semester to welcome the new comers of 2012 batch and in 2013 (summer semester) as farewell for the founder of Nangkor gathering, the 2009 batch when they are passing out.

Similarly, we the student of Nangkor in CST, the followers of the founder of Nangkor gathering never forget the tradition introduce by 2009 batch. This year, the new comers of Nangkor to CST were two, Domtu Dorji and Pema Yoezer, the brother of Pema Choden (the member of founder of Nangkor gathering, the 2009 batch). Of course the number of newcomers is less but we believe lesser the number more effective in whatever we do with less mistake. With our little experience in CST for past few years we convey relevant words to our new comers of Nangkor. The Nangkor gathering for newcomers was organized by my batch (2011) on 6^th August 2013. The changes in Nangkor gathering this time was in regard to venue. The venue was in Phuntsholing town.  At 7:00 pm we moved from college to Phuntsholing.

After our arrival, the organizer (3^rd year) started the program. The drinks (soft drinks) were distributed. The introduction and welcome speech was delivered by our senior (Simple) in our mother tough (sharchopkha). Then we allow two first year to introduce themselves. After an hour of exchanging the feeling between us, we the Ex- Nangkorien, we had dinner.  The drinks (hard drinks) were served as soon we were done with dinner.  We moved back to college before the hard drinks drag us. With few bottles of hard drinks we return to college through short cut. We could arrive back to college after twice rest on the ways. One at starting of step from Phuntsholing (above stream) and other at rest place on the way to CST.  We had fun on the way while we rest. As a token of appreciation by two first years to seniors they even sung a song while we rest.

We don’t take the path (short cut to Gonpa) but we take the highway till college from gate of Gonpa. As we planned, we gathered at heliport and had fun with drinks. We played games and finally we dispersed at 12:30am. The dispersed of gathering remind us the next gathering for farewell of outgoing Nangkorien of present final year. Let us wait the time to come….. 

Life

                         Life, too short for doing merit deeds.

Life is like a transient of lightning and the roaring of thunder of the summer monsoon. In the transient period of life, do the deeds that everybody around you cherish and satisfy with what you have done. Never do and think of doing demerits deeds which will hurt people of your community. The capacity in you should be utilized in making the society peace and calm to realize and experience the harmony of society.

The every second and every minutes of our life period is precious time. One who understands the meaning of life knows the value of time and happy with the short life. They pursue the valuable goal of their life within the given period of life with no complain of saying life is too short.

The golden platform (we as a human being) that we are given due to previous karma in this life should not let to go in vain. The purpose of life in short period of life should be done with our good possible ways. The main purpose, I have in life is to repay to parents of present, past and future with dedication and sympathy. I may not wrong to say what I have for my life as purpose is your purpose. Unlike other living being we have a platform and capability to listen and practice dharma with good intention. So , utilize the opportunity we as a human has. 

We, on the earth for purpose.(Death is certain but when and where it will occur is uncertain).

                                    We, on the earth for purpose.

The day when we were born is the day the world rejoices upon us. Our parents were extremely happy for us for being born in their hand. If world rejoices upon you coming on the world on the first day, you should be wise enough to let the world rejoices upon you at last day, when you are departing from this wonderful world permanently. Happiness parent when you were born should also be happy when you leave this world permanently.

The world rejoice on you when you were born because world knows, you can do many remarkable tasks that benefit the world, when you are on the earth. World expect more from you. The single man coming on world is expectation of new changes for the world. The longer you stay on world are more reliable changes that last for longer duration that the world expects.

On the other hand, your parents are always happy with you. They are happy owing to you becoming more capable day by day and year by year. Your excellence in your field all together makes your parents happier than ever. As world expects you to be more meaningful man on this world, the parents too has same expectation. In spite of you being more meaningful person on this world your parent want you to be a happier man on the earth. The way your parent expects signifies that they care you more than what they can do it for you. They care you because they want you to be successful person.

The purpose of we on the earth is to make a life meaningful. To realize the meaning of life, we should have patient in listening and following the merit footprint of experts and parents. The valuable advices from elders including your parents are the key to excel your life in making it meaningful. More important I consider in my life than above all as a believer of Buddha teaching is the way you believe and having faith in birth after death. One having believed in birth after death will feel guilty of doing untidy task in your life. Having trust on what experts of Buddha teaching state “every animals on world are once our parent” and doing merit task will realize your parents dream. The only source that we can repay our thanking parent is having faith in Buddha teaching. To let the all sentient being of six realms to be happy let us have faith and believe in dharma and practice it. 

Your dream of life should be pursuing but never forget that we are given a day that we should left this world. The wealth you gathered, beauty you may be, and popular you are will appears nothing to any one when one go to sleep permanently. The wealth has no capability of rescuing you by giving wealth to other and same with your fame. The only help we will have, only if we did our deed pure, have kind mind to everyone with justice and practice dharma when we are living on the world.  It’s always good if we can remember Guru Rinpoche once a day and recite ba zar gu ru (om a hung ba zar guru pad ma se de hung) 100 times.

Death is certain but when and where it will occur is uncertain.

Guru Rinpoche la na mo.

Lagging behind the 21st century.

     Lagging behind the 21^st century. (Written when I was in college, staying with friends)

Expert says one should go ahead of age we are living in. We should question ourselves, why? The very simple logic that are absent in some of the people who reside in their resident: flashing of water after toileting, the damping of their leftover food and many more. These are all we have to have a simple common sense as a human being. The repeated notice of use water while toileting and damp leftover food in proper place was useless to those men who reside in their resident. In spite of having water in syntax they never flash water after toileting. Instead they complain of insufficient water in their resident. That was indeed an excuse for no strong reason.

If we teach any one, sometime animals, after repeated insist, even they do what we ask. For those hornless human being will never understand as they were brought up in the society that deprived of parent and elders advices. They were grown up in the society where they dominate society and had done whatever they wish to do. The difference in quality of thinking and acting should be present when we step up higher grade but to those people instead of what we aspect, they are developing a habit something similar to stone old age peoples.

The deed what we do in our daily life determines our quality of human. It’s not the matter of our permanent resident (city) that determines the quality. It’s not the post that determine the quality of human but the way of thinking and acting matters a lot. The higher grade we may be in but quality of human doesn’t come along with grade. We are responsible to have the quality of good human being. The bad habits that are the quality for bad human being should be do away gradually  and quality that appreciated by society should be picked up and implemented.

I as a believer of Buddha teaching, ( དགེ་བ་བཅུ་དང་མི་དགེ་བ་བཅུ།) would like to beg sorry for my mistake of ignorance to everyone who involve in above scene. I have no intention of hurting anyone by writing article but want everyone to understand the simple common sense of human being. As per as many of my friend concern, the article may applicable to one or two people. Whatever it may be I am writing on this topic just want to share what I believe. The thought keeping in my mind gives me tension. Its better I express and stay tension free.

Reflecting and realizing the childhood days.

 Reflecting the childhood days and realizing the present time.

The memories of childhood days are still fresh if the memories were splendid.  The days that I spent in primary school were among the memories, which gave me a second thought today. Dreaming of becoming doctor was my ultimate goal in my life during childhood days. The reason behind for becoming doctor was none other than as doctor are doing merit task in the society that benefit community as a whole. Doing a merit task in this life will help our life in next life. This is what actually the religious minded people believe. So, I born and grown up in society based on nyingma religion (Mahayana), and society belief in birth after death, I believe becoming doctor is a merit carrier in my life.

The days of primary class winded up with immature aim and goals of life. Entering into the secondary class, my goals of life gets modified. Upon the teacher advising that one has to have ambitions such a way 1^st aim, 2^nd aim and 3^rd aim. They told keeping 3 ambitions will help you in fulfilling your ambition. If 1^st ambition you keep doesn’t fulfill then you can fulfill 2^nd and so 3^rd. Accordingly, I maintain 3 ambitions for my life with my interest and capability. The 1^st aim was my childhood aim, 2^nd was to become engineer and 3^rd was to become school teacher. Dreaming itself, doesn’t solve in fulfilling of my ambition. With the mind concentrating on words: hardship, tackling obstacles on way of life, dedication in doing task and faith in what you are doing determine in fulfilling my ambition. I sweat during those days (secondary class) to let my dream come true.

The time for making my dream about 70% had approached in 2010 after I completed doing BHSEC. Declaration of result was made in early 2011. I couldn’t fulfill my 1^st ambition. I realized the advice made by my teacher to have at least three ambitions was indeed a good advice. I can say I am still not blind in taking my ambition for my life. I have still two ambitions that I have set for my life during secondary class. I could fulfill 2^nd ambition that I have set for my life. I am satisfied with that I could fulfill as it was also my one of ambition.

With fulfilling my 2^nd ambition doesn’t mean I have fully fulfilled. I have again an extra mile go ahead to attain the goal of my life. To become an engineer particularly the Electronic and Communication Engineer is the toughest task. One has to have a strong dedication, determinations and enthusiasm to become E&C Engineer. The current scenario of country Bhutan in regarding job for E&C engineer is out of question. To all the E&C engineer of Bhutan never disappointed with current scenario. The time is changing and country is developing. Developing country will always required E&C engineers for sure after few years. The only worried for me is how I can get all the relevant knowledge in the field of electronic and communication to ensure that job is searching me one day. I assure all the E&C engineers of Bhutan will survive as you live on this world with your knowledge of E&C.

·         E&C= electronic and communication.

New topic in the history of women in Bhutan

                           The new topic in the history of women in Bhutan.

The list of Ministers for second parliament on 25^th July 2013 create a new topic in the history of women in Bhutan. There were no women who had shoulders a Minister post till 2013 in the history of Bhutan. It was a same women so called Aum Dorji Choden who emerges as Women first engineer in late 20th century and today she was first women to be the minister. Now Lyonpo Dorji Choden was icon for Bhutanese women. She was brave women as she competes in male dominate society and could complete the race.

Lyonpo Dorji Choden was again the president of Druk Namrup Tshokpa, one of the party in Bhutan for Parliament. Leading a party itself was a great and it was a symbol of women competing with man in male dominate society.

For your bravery and good foot print for women in Bhutan, I would like to thank you from my heart with full hope that Bhutanese women will follow your good foot prints.

2013 was opposite to 2008.

                  2013, the 13^th of July was another shock.

I was eager, thinking when the 13^th of July 2013 will come but at the same time I was worried whether the faithful and loyal party will come to the power. In the due course of the time, the day of what I was actually waiting was come. The night of the day was again another worry for me.

The two parties that had qualify for primary round was Druk Phunsum Tshokpa (DPT) and People Democratic Party (PDP).The result of NA was going to declared in the evening of the day. The memory of 2008 election result for NA was fresh in my mind. I was having the doubt of same victory as that of 2008. The 2008 election for NA was in fact a landslide victory to DPT by PDP and making a world smallest opposing party. Of the 47 seats for NA, only 2 seats were for PDP in 2008.

I have predicted that the PDP will come as Opposing party with more number of seats. Minimum of 20 seats in NA was what I actually predicted. In deed I was having a decision that cannot be decided. Sometime, my mind said that the PDP will come as Ruling party and DPT as Ruling Party sometime. The unstable mind of mine was made stable with one thought, when the result of NA election was declared. It wasn’t stable although result was declared. The 15 seats were taken by DPT this time and remaining 32 seats were taken by DPD. With that result, the new government was created. PDP, the opposing party in first parliament session was Ruling party this time and the DPT, the ruling party in 2008 to 2013 NA was Opposing party.

I have no comment on result of NA for 2013 only if the present Ruling party does the duty well and fulfill their pledges. My comment on result of NA in 2013 will emerges when elected government does opposite to what they have said during campaigns periods.

15DPT

Win 24 to form government

PDP32

Now, it’s time to give my heartfelt felicitation to both the parties for making to primary round and participate primary round successfully without any problems. To the new government, the Ruling party, PDP, Tashi Delek and hope your party will let the sun shine in every corner with justice. And to the new opposing party, DPT, thank you very much for your tireless, dedicate, faithful and hardship during last 5 years in your tenure and Tashi Delek for coming as opposing party.

Satisfied

Modifying my blog page. Its taking a time as I am doing without any knowledge of where to modify, how to modify and many more. After an hour , when i could do some change in page of my blog , I am satisfied with my task.

Semester are like running stream.

                                        Semester too short for me.

Completing 8 semesters in Engineering College is too long for most of the people. The 19^th July, 2011 was the first day, I reported to college to pursued Electronic and communication engineering program. I was dreaming about when I will reached 8^th semesters (final year), when I saw final year students. Thinking again and again let my mind to expose in tension world. The mind in tension world get out of tension world when the Introductory night and Tag night was organized. It was nights that forget every tension. As time passed by the tension of going through 8 semesters fade and become vivid in my mind.

Now I am in fifth semester without any memory of how 4 semesters has been passed. For me semester appears to be short as summer lightning. The busy semester made semester too short. The week appears for me as day when tight schedule was present. Indeed semester was short for me. A days making weeks, weeks making month, few months ultimately making a semester was unnoticeable for busy Jigme Zangpo.

When I think of few semesters left for graduating, I am absolutely excited but on the other hand graduating with knowledge that is baseless that contribute nothing to society and help nothing to self, I feel so sorry and sad. However I am still not late to built the base that withstand the pressures of society benefit and self too in near future. The almost 4 semester I have willed more than enough for preparing my Engineering base quality a firm and good that will trust by society, if not by world. let me have trust on my capacity and will work upon building the base a firm.

The Valley misunderstand as Golden Valley

The valley sometime misunderstands as Golden valley.

To be talked about golden valley, one should wise enough to defined the real meaning of valley on top of knowing what present in the valley. In regards to golden valley, the criteria for being the golden valley should be fulfilled. The way of considering the valley as golden valley will depends upon the individual perception. The perception that has dwells over my heart and soul for being valley as golden valley;

 World itself is illusory and happiness is illusory. In fact the word happiness is dragging way to ocean of anguish. The only way of making life a meaningful is by practicing the Dharma. Zangthi valley is overview as golden valley as the characteristic for golden valley are present. The humble people with good respect for elders, love and care for younger one and faith for everyone as a chain with unbreakable joint. The three unbelievable part of Zangthi valley bring astonish to every people who visit to Valley. In the core of the first part of valley which is the resident of Buli Trulku and upper part of Buli Trulku resident is the Drupkhang, the place for yogis for daily prayers. People spending a night at that place will ask his mind to stay one more night and will go on asking his or her mind again one more night. The only reason for loving to hold night after night is the place having the scenario of place of Buddha. Lower part of Buli Trulku resident is the resident for simple and humble people, gelongs and anums. The place is similar to upper part of Buli Trulku resident. The present of calm and peace valley throughout the year gives a sense of valley as golden valley. In fact the valley that will offer enlightens to one who resident with pure mind and practicing Dharma.

 Thinking of what the valley was and what it present made me to miss a valley and insisting my mind to visit once a year. I am happy to see that present of my body at that valley. Its gives me a satisfaction after I visit the place. My only prayers and wishes for the place is let the place become the more calm and peaceful than ever and I becoming one of the supporter of the valley to maintain the spirit of present.

Its long time, I post my last article. Due to the end semester exam, I couldn't update my writing. I will be back after a month.

Responsibility coming on the way

Being an elder brother from family is something to shoulder that younger’s brother and sister cannot do. The duty and feeling of eldest brother is good if I can serve my family. The burden of being elder brother, when I think of serving my family at this juncture when it’s impossible for me, is really a disheartening and feeling sad. The incapability of serving family at this juncture when it’s time to serve made me to think a lot. Sometime the unending thoughts especially at night, when I go to bed disturb my mind mentally and let my sleep go somewhere. I don’t know how my brother and sister have thoughts on serving of family. For me it’s something a tension when think of serving needy family at this point. I control my mind, not to think about it because thinking just adds tension in my mind. If the thinking of serving family is the solution in reality, the countless thoughts of mine in serving would have done, what I am supposed to do. So, thinking gives me a problem and I try to do away. I am eager to serve my family as fast as I can.

The gratitude for parent in bringing in this wonderful world and given every possible thing to me is always within me and now it’s my turn and times to repay my parents. Father and mother, for me, is everything. I have nothing to compare them in this world in terms of great. In fact they are greatest in this world. I am sad to know that I can’t repay them even in my next life. So I wish I am child of them till the mother earth exits. Seeing what I wish is impossible, remind me of only solution in repaying parents by having entered as a monk with pure mind. The hardships they have taken in bringing the sibling to condition that society believe is really a difficult task. Thinking the difficulties they have undergone, I have nothing to repay at this point of time when I am also in needy condition but I only I could do is to pray to kenchosum and Tsa-Wa-Lam to let my father and mother be the happiest man and woman on the earth. I wish always that my father and mother is in good condition. I love my dad and mum. And I love my sister Yedam Dema who always with my father and mother. On top of thanking father and mother for caring me, I have again somebody to thanks them. They are none other than my responsible sibling who always helps in serving our dad and mum. All my brother and sisters have soft mind and have mind to look after dad and mum and among us. I love my brother and sisters. I am sure that I could give my sister Yedam a good time when I am serving family after few years.
 I love dad,
 I love mum,
I love elder sister Lhamo,
 I love brother Dorji,
 I love sister Yedam and Salung, And finally my love to Sonam lhaden and kenchosum and Tsa-Wa-Lam.

Tsa-Wa-Lam

My success is solely depending on what my Tsa-Wa-Lam has blessed me. I believe on my Tsa-Wa-Lam. Whatever I do for the day, I start with praying to my Tsa-Wa-Lam as soon as I get up. Before I go to bed at night I again pray to my Tsa-Wa-Lam. Infact Tsa-Wa-Lam is always with me. Wherever I go or wherever I stay, I assumed my Tsa-Wa-Lam is along with me, on forehead during day time and in the heart of me during night time. I should have discipline in doing whatever I do knowing that Tsa-Wa-Lam is always with me. To let my events to be successful I have to have faith on Tsa-Wa-Lam. Without good faith I can’t have the successful event. My Tsa-Wa-Lam is enlighten and I believe if I pray and have good faith on my Tsa-Wa-Lam , there is no worry that my event will unsuccessful.

Hope of success go along with kenchosum.

Hoping a success and sweating is not the solution for me. As I believe in what we called the previous karma. If we have a connection in previous life that what we are doing this life, then thing will be much organize one. Praying to Tsa- Wa- lam and kenchoksum along with hardship is what I believe to have a success. To proceed my duty, I first pray to kenchosum. To let my proceed task shouldn’t be struck on the way. I regret for wasting my life doing meaningless task. I will bring my mind home and at least train my mind to be stable. Just by praying to kenchosum is not a solution for way to success. It’s only the way that’s your plan have no struck on the way of pursuing what you are pursuing

Who is Next now?

The blooming of flowers in most trees is yet started and the chirping of birds for the first time for that year (2004) has yet another marking of season. It’s exactly the time for school going children has come. Gom Dorji, a straight forward boy was in six. Gom was talented boy in every field be it games , studies and all round and of course bet naughty too. As he returns home from school at late night, he meets Namgay, a talkative, thin tall and charming lady. He gives his first sight to her at that time. Gaining of once heart was difficult in some cases. However due to previous karmic connection between them, as he requested to her as true lover, she accepted. The day of happiness for him began and ultimately for her. As time pass by, they went to date in weekends and share feelings and even kept so many promises for the future. They even spent night together.

As great Tibetan yogi Milarepa said “meeting in separation”, the time has come for them to depart. They are now in different valley as he has to study in Minjiwonng which is one day walk from village and she is still in village. He has the faith on her as he love her but he never know how she was tricky. As he was out of her sight, she started making new relation. However, when he comes for holiday she gives him a sign of love. Their relation last till the girl was pregnant of other boy. In between the girl was pregnant; he heard many things which usually were bad news. However he never believes what middle person says until and unless he sees with his eyes. I personally felt sympathy on the way he love and have great appreciation on his unwavering love. What you would do if your trusted girl done same as in the story?

 The days of together with Namgay was memorable and ultimately his unforgettable memories in his life. As she was now in that condition, circumstances force him to think a lot. Should I be her boy still? What his other boy would do on me, if I still be her boy? What other would think when I go in between then? Those thought all together asked him to forget her but she is still in his mind as she was his first love.

After a year pass by as he was now in Nganglam School, he love one girl. He controls his mind not to love her. When he thinks of what Namgay did, he decided to love to fade away his unforgettable hurt that was in his bottom of heart. After repeated request and waiting almost for a year Pema accept him. Days were short as days of winter when he has a time to stay with her even thought it was days of summer which is longer than other seasons. With full of hope and trust on pema, he decide that she to be his life partner. But the decision of Gom get alter when her previous boy meet with her in Nangkor school. Don’t even trust friends when we can’t trust ourselves. He was astonished to hear someone going negotiate between pema and his boy. He knows life is meaningless until and unless we make it meaningful. So, he understands the cruel mind of friends and takes it as a phenomenon of the life.

Meditation is only source of purifying our mind and can hold mind in right place.

Don't ask me, when did you join monk and start practicing meditation. Its my way of life. Of course, I am man similar to you all but I do meditation with sincere mind. The mind placing on top of tip of pyramid is how I did my meditation. Remember, all the great and learned man did and is doing meditation for holding their mind in right place. So, I am practicing to follow what learned man does. Hope you are also doing or will be doing now.

We are determined Electronic and Communication Engineer. We are optimistic.

Sorrow of 2005

Sorrow of 2005 still lingered in my heart. The unbelievable sorrow, because it was just simply unbearable which I had better experienced for past year. The stimulus of sorrow hurt me a lot and letting my heart to breaking into pieces. The sharp sorrow which can be compared with sharp knife which doesn't cut apple into piece but my heart till the bottom gives me a sense with no touch. The nonstopable thought of event of sharp sorrow is always within me.

I tried to void it but couldn't. I am back to world for second time in this life. I am confused when I say coming world for second time. I can clear my confusion when I compare who I am right now and who I was and what the condition was in 2005. I was almost dead in 2005. Having the condition that I appreciated is what I called life for second time in this life. I am who I am right now. For me being the man that going to stand before crowd was only because of my ken-cho-sum , tsa-wa-lam and family. Father, mother, brother and sisters are whom I offer my gratitude and felicitation along with pure mind. To them I have long way to go in repaying them and respect them. I thanks for them for sharing my unforgettable and unbearable sorrow of 2005.

24th April, 2013

Reflection of 24th April , 2013. It was 5:00 in the evening and I was eager to know the result of votes for National Councils of the 20 dzongkhag , particularly the Samdrup Jongkhar dzongkhag.

 I opened the kuenselonline website and automatically the candidate of every dzongkhag was displaying but there wasn’t result of votes. After waiting and reloading the website, few dzongkhag results were displayed. I login to twitter and found that for Samdrup Jongkhar, Jigme Wangchuk has reelected as National Council. I was astonished for his success for second time and without delaying my time I looked on the home page of kuenselonline to see the results of votes. He has secured more than 5000. More than 2000 and 1000 for other two candidates respectively.

 Including my dzongkhang, there were 6 formor NC get elected. NCs reelecting for second time took my mind away from my mind home to realization parlor. The merit job they contributed in 1st five year of their tenure to people of country and their respective dzongkhag provide the path to reelected. I wish all the elected NC to have wonderful and have successful tenure.

The day to look back and thank them

The day to look back. When I say I am successful I should not forget whom to thank for letting me to follow the track of success. The only source may be equals to chief advisor, the parents is non-other than our 2nd parent the teacher. The 2nd May of every year celebrated as teacher’s day in spite of celebrating birth anniversary of the 3rd druk gyalpo Jigme Dorji Wangchuk in Bhutan. I extend my heart felt felicitation to wish all time of teacher to have a wonderful life ahead for their selfless dedications and hard work in shaping of every students. It’s not on 2nd may that I wish a teacher but the unnoticeable prayer and thought of teacher to have good life is always within me

.1, 2, 3, ………………………………………… …….63,64. I count the number of teacher that taught me till date. Its 64. I don’t know how much teacher that I have. That was only counts that taught me but there are many teacher who gives me the valuable advice which in fact change my course of life to fine one. As rightly said “if there is no teacher, there will be no Buddha. The Buddha of past are all product of teacher”. Teachers are the candle that gives us a light in the dark room. Our ignorance is made to vanish by our teacher. They are in fact our entire sight that let to see the mother earth. Therefore, there is nothing grate than a teacher. Teachers are the source of knowledge, path of success and wisdom too. Without them we are like a frog of pond having time seeing limited space up in the sky and have nothing opportunity.

Now, to reader hold your mind for a while to reflect back to the childhood day, you caring by teachers. Take up in position such that legs are being crossed and place your hand pump facing sky and lean on your thigh. Take a long breath and go back to the time that you are in pp. What you have in pp. stage? Who modified your life? ……………………….If you at least remember what you were in that stage, you might have realize how important is teacher to you when you compare that stage with current stage. My simple but deeply dedicated prayer for my teachers of past, present and future.

I offer my prayer from deep of my heart
To extend you days to stay on earth
 Because lopen are the greatest
May you have the life of eternity
As you are the sources of anything
Without you, we are nothing
