We visited Norbulingka near Dharmshala where we got to see the preserved Tibetan arts and culture. Once I stepped inside the gates of Norbulingka, it felt like as if I have been transported to a different world of peace and serenity.

I know it’s not my turn to post today but I just thought I should share what I experienced yesterday when we went to the Buddhist Temple I just felt peaceful and just wanted to look throughout the whole area and see the place ….I even went to the roof with Kadirappa and Emmett.
Today is a very important day to me. I got to meet one of many Buddhas in India! And along side with meeting and talking to an activist that seen it and and done it all. He has been to jail 15 times and probably has been to jail more than that. He is a passionate man that works hard for fighting for freedom for Tibetans country and making it their own.
