The Most Lucky Phallus!

While people in Japan do enjoy the Penis Festival every year giving the genital organ the honour it deserves. Bhutan has the most amazing, decent and the attractive Phallus of different kinds.  In Bhutanese context the Phallus paintings on the walls of the house, building, lhakhang and monastery symbolizes its miraculous workable values. Not only that, it is also believed that the painting alone can chases away all the evil spirit and the bad omens from the family.   And the tenants of this building wasn't unlucky either. They are the luckiest of all the tenants living in some part of Thimphu. I hope they won't have any evil spirit surrounding their room. Since, they are well blessed and shielded with this handsome phallus parking board to welcome them.  Perhaps, I wish I had one such lucky, strong, charming and the coolest chaps. So that I can demonize all the evil spirit like how Drukpa Kunley had once done it. Unlucky me and Lucky tenants!  Can you imag

Bhutanese has a very Poor Waste Management System in Place.

Waste Management Team It is a century of rapid change in society, in science and technology and in everyday life. It is the age of super-fast computer system to genetic engineering.  But, what about the waste we produce each day.  The world's population has reached to over seven billion. That means we are producing seven billion different waste every day.  The question is where is it going. Although, we have Clean Bhutan project, municipal community and Green Bhutan project working onto monitor, sensitize and fix this growing concern. However, we have never experienced clean environment.   Over the year, global concern such as threat to human life and nature is overburdened with the kinds of waste we produce every day at our home or at workplace. It is the main problem we have everywhere.   The research have proven that waste has become a new threat to personal health and new disease in the market globally. What do we expect more than this? Every day we h

Bhutanese Has a very Poor Toilet Habit.

Meolam Chenmo being the most awaited religious event in the Dzongkhag brings thousands of devotees from all works of life together. And as a Dzongkhag Toilet Ambassador, I have seen this time the perfect platform for me to give a trial based experiment to provide clean toilet for all. Pit Latrine, the Bhutanese Soul  However, for few days I and my volunteer team have been proudly and happily battling the responsibility to facilitate a 'clean toilet for all' with very limited resources in whatever ways possible. Even by covering some expenses from personal savings, thinking that we could help make a positive impact on their lives.  But it wasn't a good turnout even after a constant remainders to use toilet mindfully. And even by safeguarding and trying hard by personally informing them about the impact of toilet. However, we saw our people so rude and carefree. They acted as if they were freshly transported from another planet without any values and ethics.

The Journey of a Mothers Love

White-bellied Heron

Lately, before the news covered on 'White-bellied Heron, pride of Berti', ended I became quite ambitious about easy watching of the bird along Bertichhu, zhemgang. One of the world's critically endangered bird species.    Before the dream of watching the bird dies, I have planned my travel to reach the site and have nonchalant one-to-one watch over this exquisite bird - feedings and patterns. The place somewhere lies to a good distance of Forty kilometers stretched away from the place where I live and work. Unless, one has a very genuine reason to travel to the place, one can. Otherwise, it is very expensive affairs to-and-fro travel for bird watching alone. However, with much sacrifices and without compromising my passion for the love of nature and the bird, I have made myself in the place on one national holidays. Upon reaching the place, my first priority was to have a closer watch on its habitat, sty
