Sangsol Ceremony 4th July, 2010


Sangsol means a prayer ceremony for Long Life of His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama. On this occasion we offer sang (incense) to all our Deities and Goddess. For this ceremony we all, including KDM Girls Hostel Residents and monks, moved from Kaza to Gyete about 24 k.m. from Kaza and about 15700 feet above sea level.

The Monks and Residents of the Hostel prayed for long life of His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama of Tibet. After sangsol we released 18 Goats and Sheep for Long Life of His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama.
