  • 2000 Ladakh and Zanskar-The Land of Passes
    1 LADAKH AND ZANSKAR -THE LAND OF PASSES The great mountains are quick to kill or maim when mistakes are made. Surely, a safe descent is as much a part of the climb as “getting to the top”. Dead men are successful only when they have given their lives for others. Kenneth Mason, Abode of Snow (p. 289) The remote and isolated region of Ladakh lies in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, marking the western limit of the spread of Tibetan culture. Before it became a part of India in the 1834, when the rulers of Jammu brought it under their control, Ladakh was an independent kingdom closely linked with Tibet, its strong Buddhist culture and its various gompas (monasteries) such as Lamayuru, Alchi and Thiksey a living testimony to this fact. One of the most prominent monuments is the towering palace in Leh, built by the Ladakhi ruler, Singe Namgyal (c. 1570 to 1642). Ladakh’s inhospitable terrain has seen enough traders, missionaries and invading armies to justify the Ladakhi saying: “The land is so barren and the passes are so high that only the best of friends or worst of enemies would want to visit us.” The elevation of Ladakh gives it an extreme climate; burning heat by day and freezing cold at night. Due to the rarefied atmosphere, the sun’s rays heat the ground quickly, the dry air allowing for quick cooling, leading to sub-zero temperatures at night. Lying in the rain- shadow of the Great Himalaya, this arid, bare region receives scanty rainfall, and its primary source of water is the winter snowfall.

  • Ladakh Info & Itinerary
    Ladakh Pilgrimage August 2-18, 2020 (17 Days) Dr. Miles Neale & Local Guests BREIF OVERVIEW Julley! (Greetings in Ladakhi). This 17-day pilgrimage takes us to Ladakh (aka “Little Tibet”) in the Himalayan region of Northern India where we will be immersed in Tibetan Buddhism, along with a host of Ladakhi cultural practices including traditional medicine, divination, astrology, ritual, art and eco-sustainability. Ladakh offers a unique time capsule for life as it once was in Tibet before the invasion by China and we are so fortunate to catch a glimpse of this mystical land and its people. Dr. Miles Neale leads this trip in partnership with our local tour operator Tsewang Gonbo of Lungta Travels and featuring local guest teachers, scholars, healers and more who will showcase an insider perspective of Ladakhi culture and sacred practices. The pilgrimage doubles as a fundraiser in collaboration with the Tibetan Nuns Project (www.tnp.org) to support the nuns of Dorjee Zong Nunnery in nearby Zanskar. Each pilgrim will commit to raising at least $500 USD before we embark, thereby exercising the principle of generosity that is the engine of the path to awakening. We are limited to 20 spots, in addition to the CSP team. After the pilgrimage we are offering a special seven-day extension to Zanskar to meet the nuns of Dorjee Zong Nunnery. Dr. Miles Neale | Contemplative Psychology, PC | +1-917-750-3594 | [email protected] 2 TOUR DESCRIPTION To reach Ladakh we will travel in stages. All pilgrims will meet in New Delhi, India on August 2, 2020.

  • Mountains, Monasteries & Monks
    MOUNTAINS, MONASTERIES & MONKS In a country of a billion and half and still counting, Ladakh is one of those rare places where people are few and far between. While high passes and spectacular mountains dominate the region, it is also a place that speaks of the thou- sands of years that travellers, craftsmen, religious dignitaries and nomads have come upon. A jewel in the crown of India, Ladakh not just amazes with its landscape and people, but also hides unique Wildlife. While many passes make up for what it is and what it means grammatically, yet experiencing a place like this is bound to leave every traveller breathless both spiritually and by altitude. While Buddhism is Central to this part of the world, and uniformity of barren high-altitude mountains are constant, yet subtle differences between landscapes, people, history and wildlife in niches can throw up many surprises. From High passes, to border villages, secretive wildlife, to ancient monasteries and ruins, this journey takes you not just into Ladakh and its remoteness but also into insights of how fragile it still is environmentally and geographically. Yet, every step and every drive add to experiences unmatched and in comparable. TRIP HIGHLIGHTS Take in glacial rivers, fruit orchards, Buddhist monasteries and festivals at your own pace Drive through some of the most stunning mountain passes of the Karakoram, Zanskar & Indus ranges Visit ancient monasteries, ruins and forts that speak of beliefs and lives of yesteryears Glimpse rare wildlife in the trans Himalayan region

BAKULA RINPOCHE‟S FAMILY In the middle of the 18th century there was only a single heiress in the royal family of Zangla. Her name was Ladzes Wangmo (zla-mdzes dbang-mo) (Francke [1926] 1982: 165). She had to bring a makpa (mag-pa) i.e. to marry uxorilocally. According to N.T. Shakspo (2010: 147) her husband was Gyapo Tupchung (rgyal-po thub-chung ?) and according to Riaboff (1989: 205) he was Dubtse Wang Dpalde (grub-tse dbang dpal lde) from the royal family of Heniskut (or Henasku). She delivered at least three children: a daughter, Tsering Wangmo (tshe-ring dbang-mo), about whom I will speak later; a son, Lobzang Namgyal (blo-bzang rnam-rgyal), heir to the crown of Zangla; and the 18th Bakula Rinpoche, Lobzang Yeshe Stanpa Gyaltsen (blo-bzang ye-shes bstan-pa rgyal-tshan) (Riaboff 1989: 205).

Main Stops: Delhi – Leh – Likir – Yangthang – Hemis Shukpachan– Temisgam – Lamayuru – Alchi – Sumur – Hunder – Diskit About the Tour: India is intoxicating and intimidating — with its teeming markets, crumbling old fortresses, quaint hill-stations, baking deserts, stunning coastlines, rain-soaked jungles, Taj Mahal, et al. Remarkable and colorful, India offers myriad journeys through time, cultures, languages, cuisines, and customs. From the Himalayas in Ladakh to Kerala’s shores, India is spectacularly diverse, obscenely humongous, and deliriously pulsating. This is a “mobile glamping” trek – porters or pack animals will carry gear and food (and cook nutritious meals for you) – meaning you only need to carry daily necessities. We pride ourselves on sustainable, ethical, “leave no trace” travel.
