"'l. .,.' :;;> I \ I J Kee Monastery ~ ee Monastery of Spiti-sub division of Lahul & Spiti district attracts one's ~yes due to its spectacular landscape in the cold desert of the Western Himalayan region consisting of a large irregular heap of low rooms and narrow corridors, inter-connected by dark passages and stairs. The cluster of mud packed houses that crown the top offers a wonderful view of the valley both up and down. The Kee Monastery is the largest in Spiti, and is situated at a height of 4,116 Mtrs. above the mean sea level benvccn Kibber and Kaza, just over a small village of Kee on the left bank of Spiti river. Kee Monastery was probably built in the early of 18th century to replace a Monastery at Rangrik which was founded in the 11 th century and then destroyed 600 years later by the invaders. The upper buildings house the :five Gomphas of the Monastery, a large kitchen, a special cell for the Abbot and number of store rooIDS. These Gomphas are focal points of the Monastery, for in them one looks for the treasures and symbols of the Buddhist faith. Each Gomphas is dominated by a statue of Lord Buddha, looking dov.n on his prostrate followers. On either side of the statue there are rows of wooden pigeon holes, where the numerous volumes of Kan~gyur. the Tibetan scriptures and canomical commentaries are housed. These books and wall paintings are the oldcst and most beautiful of all Kee's relics. The wall of Central Chapel are beautifully printed with scenes from the .latakas and from the historic Buddha's life. Thc pictures arc all drawn with great skill and painted with brilliant colours. The Thanglms (paintings on the piece of banging cloth) in the Kee Monas tcry arc the finest. It is said that these have been brought from Lhasa (Tibet) by the local monks who went there for study or on pilgrimage. Monasteries in the district are the centers of education, Buddhist study and symbolise socio economic and cultural fabric of society.
