  • OU1901 092-099 Feature Cycling Ladakh
    Cycling Ladakh Catching breath on the road to Rangdum monastery PICTURE CREDIT: Stanzin Jigmet/Pixel Challenger Breaking the There's much more to Kate Leeming's pre- Antarctic expeditions than preparation. Her journey in the Indian Himalaya was equally about changing peoples' lives. WORDS Kate Leeming 92 93 Cycling Ladakh A spectacular stream that eventually flows into the Suru River, on the 4,000m plains near Rangdum nergy was draining from my legs. My heart pounded hard and fast, trying to replenish my oxygen deficit. I gulped as much of the rarified air as I could, without great success; at 4,100m, the atmospheric oxygen is at just 11.5 per cent, compared to 20.9 per cent at sea level. As I continued to ascend towards the snow-capped peaks around Sirsir La pass, the temperature plummeted and my body, drenched in a lather of perspiration, Estarted to get cold, further sapping my energy stores. Sirsir La, at 4,828m, is a few metres higher than Europe’s Mont Blanc, and I was just over half way up the continuous 1,670m ascent to get there. This physiological response may have been a reality check, but it was no surprise. The ride to the remote village of Photoksar on the third day of my altitude cycling expedition in the Indian Himalaya had always loomed as an enormous challenge, and I was not yet fully acclimatised. I drew on experience to pace myself: keeping the pedals spinning in a low gear, trying to relax as much as possible and avoiding unnecessary exertion.

  • Buddhist Traditional Ethics: a Source of Sustainable Biodiversity Examining Cases Amongst Buddhist Communities of Nepal, Leh- Ladakh and North-East Region of India
    Buddhist Traditional Ethics: A Source of Sustainable Biodiversity Examining cases amongst Buddhist communities of Nepal, Leh- Ladakh and North-East Region of India Dr. Anand Singh SAARC/CC/Research Grant 13-14 (24 September, 2014) Acknowledgement The opportunity to get this project is one of the important turning points in my academic pursuits. It increased my hunger to learn Buddhism and engage its tradition in social spectrum. Though the project is a symbolical presentation of Buddhist cultural and ethical values existing in Ladakh, Lumbini and Tawang. But it gives wide scope, specially me to learn, identify and explore more about these societies. My several visits in Ladakh has provided me plethora of knowledge and material to continue my research to produce a well explored monograph on Ladakh. I wish that I would be able to complete it in near future. I do acknowledge that report gives only peripheral knowledge about the theme of the project. It is dominantly oriented to Himalayan ranges of Ladakh. But in such short time, it was not possible to go for deep researches on these perspectives. However I have tried to keep my ideas original and tried for new orientation to early researches on topic. In future these ideas will be further elaborated and published. I take this opportunity for recording my heartiest thanks to SAARC Cultural Centre for granting me fellowship and giving me opportunity to explore new, traditional but still relevant and useful ideas related to traditional knowledge of Buddhism. My grateful thanks to Dr. Sanjay Garg, Deputy Director (Research), SAARC Cultural Centre for always giving new and innovative ideas for research.

  • 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.

  • Political History of Ladakh ( Pre 9Th to 12 Th CE)
    Historical Research Letter www.iiste.org ISSN 2224-3178 (Paper) ISSN 2225-0964 (Online) Vol.41, 2017 Political History of Ladakh ( Pre 9th to 12 th CE) Mohd Ashraf Dar Ph.D Research Scholar S.O.S in A.I.H.C & Archaeology, Vikram University, Ujjain (M.P.) JRF ICHR Abstract Ladakh is the Northern most division of Indian Union which falls in Jammu and Kashmir state. Generally the recorded history of Ladakh begins with the coming of Tibetans to Ladakh in the late 9th CE. This paper is an attempt to string together the Pre 9th political history and the post 9th political history of Ladakh till 12 th CE. For this purpose folk lore and oral traditions have been employed as well in order to logically fill the lacunae in the pre 9th CE history of Ladakh. This paper also provides a geographical glimpse of Ladakh. Keywords : Ladakh, Geographical, Political, Chronicle, Tibet, Ladakhi Kingdom. Introduction Ladakh is known by various names like Mar-yul 1 (The Red land), La-tags 2, Land of Lamas and the Moon city 3etc. In fact Ladakh has been named by many people on the basis of their first glimpse of the land. The `multinomial nature of Ladakh depicts its versatility in the geo-ethnic milieu of the world itself. Speaking in terms of geography, Ladakh region of Jammu and Kashmir state can be divided into seven parts, lower (Sham ), Upper (tod ), Central (Zhang ), Nubra, Chang-thang, Purig and Zanskar. But in typical geographical terms the whole region can be divided into three major sub geographical regions.
