Counting down..

In this area they have a saying for counting down. They count it in Momos. So now I have 4  Momos left to enjoy :)

I am enjoying every day. Some weeks ago I paniced to leave, now after some time, done some meditation, refleck about this 3 month etc I feel pretty good about.

Sad to leave, but fun to meet my friend, and later in august I´ll also go to Sweden to catch up time with my family. So I have lots of nice things in front of me..

I have been changing my room, now I live in another Monastery during the night, cos we have something called "Summer retreat" for 45 days in "my" monastery, and during this time, no women are allowed here during night time.

I meet some nice people during my visit here. I also got in contact with some nice school projects in this area. So do you wanna try to do some time as a volunteer teacher I have some to recommend. Besides my super great organisation "Little Lamas", I understand after talking with people I´m luck to get in contact wish such a great, genuine and warm hearted  organisation at the first shot! My heart will always tick for them, and all lovely kids here... ohhhhh I´ll miss them!

Right now I enjoy my last breakfast for this trip in Kathmandu. 

An in 30 min go back by bus to Pharping and the monastery. 

Friday I go back to beautiful Barcelona. 

Small help from many will make a change!

I'm now a member of  Dolfo komang Tulku foundation. 

They have a primary School in Dolpo but will now get a secondary education to 8 of the students in Kathmandu.  In november the new hostel for these 8 students must be ready.  https://www.facebook.com/pages/Himalayan-Caravan-Hostel-In-kathmandu/152710938257181

You can see more about the project here. The rent for the rooms will be sponsored by CIDEN Foundation but they need a lot more. I sponsored them with a camera, and now racing money from Sweden to their first Lap top.  And with the help of the good hearted Swedes I'm sure they will have their computer this week.  But they need lots more.. Beds, blankets, pillows, note books, pens, clothes, shoes, medication, food, etc etc.. 

Are you interested to help with a donation? Even 10 euro will be a great help!!! Contact me or direct to: komangtulkufondation@gmail.com

I will now start to help them with their website as well. We can all help in different ways. 

Your help will make a different!! And in my opinion all kids should have right to an education! 

Lots of love & light...  

The streets of Kathmandu

I am in Katmandu again. I have 4 days of, a nice surprise cos I didn't had any extra free days before. 

 Yesterday the streets were so muddy and dirty when I arrived. And my flip flops got so slippery'n dirty as well as my feet so I had to jump in to a bathroom to watch both shoes as feet...

But after 2 min walk it was the same again :)

And I think it's time for this ones  to 'pas away'. This is after I tried to clean them in my hotel, but they will never be white again. 

Time is flying...

...to fast.
I can´t believe I have less than 2 weeks more to go!!! uhhhhhh.....

And one week ago Miss Lee left the monastery, this amazing warmhearted funny lady, was only here for some weeks, but I really liked her, and she will be missed of many.

So I want to honor her for her kindness and dedication for all in the monastery with some pictures.

 Teaching Chinese and math...

 Out for a stroll in Kathmandu...

 Dinner at another teacher at the Monastery, Shyam, and his so lovely family! 

 Project work...

 The good bye....

The students waving Good Bye, the smallest once screamed: -See yo tomorrow! :)

Thanks sweet Miss Lee!!! See you again, if that is suppose to happened..

Dear teacher...

...this one for you.

From day to day, I get some drawings and small messages from the students in the monastery. It is always so nice: I guess we all get happy when someone shares a good word with us. And it is neither less worthy if the person can or cannot draw, write good or not, it is the taught, and time they put into it that counts.

but this one I really wanna share with you, cos it is both well drawn, and so nice thoughts behind the messages. 

Lotus

Lotus denotes the freedom from all the stains of non - virtues of tree, body, speech and mind Blooming of hundred pedals of all white virtues and fine production of the essence of honey and ultimate happiness: Liberation.

Sincerly, your student Sherab Gyamtso

Thank you!
I am very grateful for your help.
Teacher, I will never forget your kindness.

Best wishes for you.
