In Himachal Pradesh, a
part of the world where
natural beauty abounds and
where legends seem to
merge with verifiable
history, there lays a
necklace of Buddhist
monasteries, gompas etched
across its landscape. And
no measure of money can
value this treasure, for
its significance is
something past compare.
Some gompas go back to the
time when Buddhism was a
shadow less sapling in the
region. The seed for its
rise in the area had been
sown i n the seventh
century A. D. When the
Tibetan king Songtsen
Gampo (Sron-b Tsan Sgam -po)
was influenced by two of
his wives -Wen Cheng from
China and Bkrikuti Devi
from Nepal. A century
later, King Trison Detsen
(Khri-Sron-lde- btsan 755
-797 A.D.) embraced the
way of the Buddha. And
from India came masters
like Santarakshita and the
famous teacher and tantric
The Padmasambhava.
