티벳 아들의 편지

 

 

My dearest godfather,

                            I   am sending my well wishes, love and prayers all the way from shimla (India) to the seoul.i am  doing well over here.

            From the last one week we  were  having heavy snowfall.it  was snowing continuously and we have to walk on and in the snow to go to the college and the hospital..i really enjoyed walking and playing with the  snow but at the same time felt very cold..while we were playing with the snow I felt that my hand is going to freeze and fall off, so I ran away and my friends kept hitting  me snow balls.. i felt very cold that day. Around the the place I live,we had almost 2 feet of snows,but there are sites which is at quite higher altitude,had almost 4  feets of  snows..i think that is too much..now it is getting alright, many people slip and fall especially girls because  shimla (my place) is a hilly area and  there are so many steep roads.. most of the road are  blocked  and people have to walk and  leave their cars and bike in the garage.. I thought that the nature has brought all the human beings together and made them equal, from the richest man to the poorest beggar have to walk and  there were no much difference between them? I think whenever there is natural catastrophes, the nature is hurting  so many sentient beings and at the same  time the nature is also giving  us a message that all the living beings especially the human beings are same and equal, all the human being want happiness and do not want suffering, and we should think that we  are equal and treat everyone nicely..there shouldn?t be any discrimination.. what do you think godfather?.

                     About the studies?it is going well and these days I am attending  EYE department..i find lots of blind people everyday, most of the people are coming due to eye infection like conjunctivitis.. I am trying to do my best in my studies and please  pray for me as the course is getting more tough.please do not worry.

              My mother is fine and she  is taking her medication everyday and on top of that she is doing yoga for the proper functioning of her gastrointestinal system and respiratory system.. she is sending her well wishes and greeting to you and the family and said that god will always bless you.

.

             Our lunar new year (Tibetan new year or  LOSER) is on 18^th February, and I can not go home to celebrate the new year to home because I have  to go the classes  and there is no holidays for the lunar new year in our college. Indians do not celebrate the lunar new year. I will miss home a lot. But I am going to the monastery during the first day of the new year.and godfather I am missing your mail so much ?please write to me sometimes.. just a short mail will make me very happy..

                       I am sending you some photographs which were taken after the heavy snowfall and one of the photograph is taken in my room and the  big Buddha poster that you see on the wall is the photograph of the medicine Buddha. I hope you will like it

    Till next mail please take good care of your health and always try to maintain a peaceful and calm mind.. I will always pray for you. Thank you so much for all the love and care,.. I will prove to be your very good son and always to try make you feel proud to have a son like me.. ?I PROMISE?..please give my regards to family.. I will write you soon..  

With lots of love and regards,

Yours son ,
