Summary

[edit]
Description
English: I was fortunate to enter a tibetan nun's home, sit talk with her and eat khapse ( tibetan bread made during losar) I met a nun on my visit to bylakuppe, a tibetan settlement in the state of karnataka, India. she told me why she became a nun, Her husband died shortly after her second child was born. She needed a place of refuge and the monastery took her in. ... Her most repeated phrase was 'I happy!'" she lost both her sons due to them being ill at a very young age. but now she has put herself in gods hand. The most obvious thing I learned ... was detachment. They lead simple lives and are attached to no material pleasures. They are content with what they have and they derive their happiness through prayer and serving others. Their food is simple — often consisting of just some Tibetan bread, a simple vegetable and loads of Tibetan tea (doused with butter!).
