BIRTH ANNIVERSARY OF GURU RINPOCHE



Guru Rinpoche, also known as Second Buddha was born miraculously from the lotus in the middle of lake Dhanakosha. 

Guru was called as second Buddha which was one of the prophesied of Lord Buddha. after Lord Buddha's prophesied, Guru Rinpoche was born on tenth day of Bhutanese calendar. 

The importance that we have to know here is that it was a day when Guru bought all the activities and the teachings of Buddha for the benefit of all sentient beings.

 In 8th century Guru Rinpoche had visited many places in  Bhutan like in the east Bumthang, Lhuntse, etc..and in west place like Paro. We the people of Bhutan are lucky to be born in this religious country which was blessed by teachings of Buddha and Guru Rinpoche. 

It was the of king Bumthang (Sindhu Raja) around in 746 AD who has invited Guru in order to recover his life where the king was ill .  with his blessings king was recovered from his illness, also Guru had mediated and subdued demons with his super natural power which bought peaceful to the king and people of Bhutan. later he has built lhakang named kurje and holly water as we can see today.

Today on auspicious day on the birth anniversary of GURU RINPOCHE it is the time where our human being should always think  that with the bless and his teachings is still exiting for beings and here we have to show our gratitude by offering butter lamps and by visiting temples and dzongs...
