Through My Eyes

Saturday June 24

(We continue listening to the Dalai Lama as he tells of his life in Lhasa in My Tibet written by he and Galen Rowell!)

" Down below the building there were endless underground storehouses and cellars, containing government stocks of butter, tea, and cloth that were supplied to the monasteries, the army, and government officials. At the eastern end was a prison for wrongdoers of high rank- corresponding perhaps to the Tower of London. And on the four corners of the building were defensive turrets where the Tibetan army used to keep watch.

In these unique surroundings I pursued my studies and also pursued my childish interests. I was always fascinated by mechanical things, but there was nobody who could tell me anything about them. When I was small, kind people who knew of this interest sometimes sent me mechanical toys, such as cars and boats and airplanes. But I was never content to play with them for long- I always had to take them to peices to see how they worked. Usually I managed to put them together again, though sometimes, as might be expected, there were disasters. I had a set of Meccano, and I built cranes and railroad cars with it long before I had ever seen such things."

( We already know something the Dalai Lama's hobbies! I promise to add more tomorrow...)

*( please click here to read of the day with me )

* This is from the book My Tibet by the Dalai Lama and Galen Rowell.

( Please see my spinning for you!)

( Tahshi Deleh gentle one! Kehrahng kusu debo yinpeh? I began the day heading up gang rinpoche ngah tso gi to continue picking which with we two working as one pulling strongly and patiently together went quite well! It was still rainy though so after that I rested by your Medlar tree as usual then returned to our studio to spin for you then to order some more things for the Grove. After that I tidied up for awhile then worked on the website and some business stuff. After that I worked on our a land of Tibet. I'm going to put the pages up on our infosite; I'll put this up for now so we can rest.

And so, as always we'll continue two as one on to tomorrow

my one gentle beautiful patient swift dream bright

long dark mane in sunlight

so for now I bid goodnight...Simjah Nahngo!)
