-Palácios, templos, monastérios, monges, Lamas, Dalai Lamas, Budismo , Monte Everest, são os temas recorrentes quando se está em Lhasa.
–
–O Palácio Potala, desde 1959, quando a China invadiu o Tibet, é um Museu .Construído no século Sétimo , cobre uma área de 41 hectares, 1000 quartos. Os fieis Budistas Tibetanos devem fazer uma peregrinação ao Palácio em sua vida. Assim como é tradição aos Muçulmanos, à Meca. Uma cidade moderna hoje circunda o imponente Predio situado em um morro e a sua frente uma enorme praça. A Unesco o,reconhece como Patrimônio da Humanidade.
–
-O Jokhang Temple no centro de Lhasa é o centro espiritual do Tibet. O Sera Monastery, uma escola para Monges e no dia da visita os Monges estavam prestando exame. Sentados todos na frente do Templo Principal , a céu aberto, após abertura da cerimonia, um dos alunos foi no centro e argumentou com os dois mestres e assim vários Monges o fizeram e ao serem aprovados pelos mestres voltaram a se sentar. O Drepung Monastery , outra escola, recebe os jovens que querem entrar na vida monástica.
–
-A escassez de Monges, deixa os monastérios ociosos e em parte abandonados. situação idêntica as igrejas mais diversas estão enfrentando. Igualmente organizações filantrópicas e filosóficas sentem a diminuição de seus membros e colaboradores. Apenas um palpite de um simples observador das tendências da humanidade: Mudanças de valores profundos nas ultimas décadas, com o aumento muito grande e rápido da população, advento das tecnologias modernas, esta satisfazendo temporariamente as necessidades espirituais e intelectuais e por isto esta tendência .
–
-A dança Tibetano em um show típico de duas horas, mostrando a vida dos Tibetanos, mas também trazendo uma mensagem profunda do sentido da vida na busca da felicidade. O show HAPPINESS ON THE WAY, A Felicidade a caminho, foi comovente. Sem tecnologias, somente palcos móveis, grande elenco, muito colorido nas roupas e criatividade para sem palavras transmitir em quatro atos, água, terra, ar, fogo a vida nesta terra e com a mensagem principal que a felicidade está ao alcance de cada um e está dentro de cada um, basta saber usar a chave, sem precisar chegar a ser ancião.
–
-Finalizo este artigo com um assunto novo para mim. No Deprung Monastery, soube do Sky Burial (Google com este nome). É uma pratica Tibetana. A maioria Budista, que ensina reencarnação, portanto sem necessidade de guardar o corpo. Consiste em expor o corpo em local aberto, retirado, deixando o em pedaços, para os abutres. Assim o corpo ajuda a alimentar outros animais. Além do motivo religioso, a dificuldade de cavar por ser um solo com muitas pedras; o uso do fogo com lenha ou combustível, muito caro. O governo Chinês proibiu em 1960 e voltou atras em 1980.
–
-Somente os Dalai Lama tem seu corpo conservado e enterrado em uma tumba. Na hierarquia dos enterros, primeiro o Mausoléu, corpo conservado, como uma múmia. Depois o Sky Burial. Depois dispor o corpo na água, rios, mar. Depois fogo, cremação e por último enterro na terra.
–
-Viajar é preciso, permite entender melhor as diversas culturas e costumes, faz bem a saúde física e mental e é divertido.
