Blessing (CD)

Recorded with the essential help of HCHF – Himalayan Cultural Heritage Foundation - the album displays some of the main instruments of the Tibetan religious music - gyaling (rgya-gling), dungchen (dung), rnga, damaru, bugtsal, silnyan – in instrumental and chanted tracks.
Tibetan culture, and people, is very spiritual and the music is an essential part of this approach to life. Music is fully integrated in the Buddhist ceremonies that mark the various period of the day, of the year, of the life. From the philosophical and spiritual point view, often more than from the aesthetic one, sounds highlight various moments of the religious activities.

It was then converted in a Yellow Hat, Gelugpa, sect site in the 15th century. The monastery contains 100 monks and a giant statue of Kali (unveiled during the annual Spituk festival). Spituk has three branches – Stok, Sankar and Saboo monastery. The Dukhang or the assembly hall has ancient collection of thangkas, masks and antique arms. There is a big throne in the assembly hall for the Dalai Lama.
