Inside the Ghoom Monastery in Darjeeling #Tibetan #Buddhism

SPREAD THE LOVE -

The Ghum (or Ghoom) Monastery is the popular name of the historic original Yiga Choeling Monastery built in Darjeeling by the Mongolian monk and astrologer, Sokpo Sherab Gyatso, at an elevation of 8,000 feet.  It is still a running monastery – I peeked into a classroom and saw little shaved head kids  – lots of monks in the making – reciting verses.  I couldn’t get one of them to smile though, I tried 😉 .
