Chhimi Lhakhang

Located on a hilltop in the triangular apex of a fertile paddy field below Mitshina and National highway is a sacred site of drukpa lineage because of a lhakhang(monastery) built somewhere in  fifteenth century in honour of Lam Drukpa Kuenley,who was popularly knowm as "divine madman."

On 8th day of 7th month of bhutanese calander,it was Sunday that I promptly accepted nervous system call to pay visit to this sacred site.The preknowledge of this legendary lhakhang was that if a childless women visit lhakhang to offer prayers for fertility,their prayers will be granted and fulfilled.And I thought only childless women must visit lhakhang.The truth I revealed was that everyone,irrespective of married or unmarried,parents or childless,children or adult,male or female will visit and can seek blessing and kindness of great saint.Uniqueness of lhakhang from
other monasteries is that we are blessed with a bow and arrow of Lam Drukpa Khuenley and phallus.As I descended back from lhakhang,a feeling of contentment beeped gently within my self.

Lam  Drukpa kuenley was a highly accomplished Buddhist master and popular figure in Bhutan history.
