Where a Divine Madman Buried a Demoness & Built Bhutan's "No Dog Temple.
Built in 1499 by Lama Ngawang Choegyel, Chimi Lhakhang ("No Dog Temple") honors the legendary Drukpa Kunley (1455–1529), Bhutan’s "Divine Madman." According to myth, Kunley subdued the terrorizing demoness Loro Duem at nearby Dochu La, chased her to Lobesa (where she disguised herself as a dog), and trapped her with his phallus-shaped "Thunderbolt of Flaming Wisdom." He buried her under a breast-shaped hill, declared "Chime!" (No Dog), and built a black chorten atop it. After forcing her pledge to protect Buddhism, she became the temple’s guardian deity, Chhoekim. The site remains sacred for fertility blessings today.

Rooted in centuries of tradition, the Bhutanese zodiac also known as ‘Lobta’ goes beyond personality traits. Each animal-element year is thought to influence temperament, compatibility, and life events, and court astrologers still consult the cycle when choosing auspicious dates for everything from naming a newborn to royal weddings.

Stay tuned for part two!

Tok Sen Massage: Healing Through Ancient Vibration

What is Tok Sen?
Tok Sen (ตอกเส้น, "tapping the lines") is a traditional healing art from Northern Thailand. Unlike typical massage, it uses rhythmic tapping along the body’s energy pathways with hand-carved wooden tools to release deep tension and restore balance.

How It Works:

Tools: A wooden mallet and peg (often made from tamarind or other resonant wood).

Technique: The therapist gently taps the peg along your muscles and energy lines ("sen" lines, similar to meridians).

Sensation: You’ll feel soothing vibrations penetrating deep into tissues – not painful, but profoundly relaxing.

Key Benefits:

🌀 Breaks Chronic Tension: Releases stubborn knots in muscles, fascia, and connective tissue.

⚡ Boosts Energy Flow: Stimulates "sen" lines to clear blockages (like Thai yoga massage).

🔊 Sound Therapy: The rhythmic tapping creates meditative sound waves that calm the mind.

🌿 Holistic Healing: Merges physical relief with energetic and mental relaxation.

Prayer wheels, or "mani wheels," are a significant element in Buddhism.

The wheels are inscribed with the mantra "Om Mani Padme Hum" on the outside, and often contain scrolls of printed or handwritten mantras inside.

According to Buddhist texts, turning a prayer wheel mindfully produces the same merit and benefits as having recited the number of prayers (mantras) inside the prayer wheel. It is a way to accumulate wisdom and merit (good karma) and to purify negativities (bad karma).

It is-believed that the energy generated from the spinning wheels spreads blessings and protection to the surrounding environment and to all mindful beings.
