Namtso Lake, for everyone traveling to Tibet, seems to have become a must-visit spot. So, came to Tibet on the second day will set off towards Namtso Lake, over the Naganla Mountain, and then traveled forward for some time, far away, the deep blue lake is like a huge sapphire face to face in front of us, in a group of snowy peaks under the background, exudes a fascinating light, this is Namtso.
Blue sea, puffy clouds, white snow-capped mountains, gentle sea breeze, standing at the edge of Namtso Lake, looking out, the winding and majestic Nyingchi-Tanggula snow-capped mountains embracing Namtso Lake in their arms.
About Namtso, there is a romantic and poignant love legend circulating locally. Legend has it that Tanggula Mountain is the "spirit should be prairie God", Namtso is the "Goddess of the sky lake", they are a pair of love fairy couple, however, by chance they offended the winter god of the underworld, after a snowstorm, Tanggula said goodbye to his beloved wife to look for the lost sheep and cattle, but the cattle and sheep on the grassland have long been lost. But the sheep and cattle on the grassland have long been destroyed by the blizzard died, so the angry Tang Gu La and the Winter God of the Underworld began three days and nights of fighting, and finally Tang Gu La exhausted and defeated by the Winter God of the Underworld into the 10,000 feet below the Winter God of the Underworld thought that Tang Gu La was dead, and then left, but Tang Gu La did not die, but was saved by a gentle girl, but after recovery, he lost his memory, and so, in the girl's care, fell in love with her, and soon they were married. , and soon they were married and lived a life of herding on the grasslands for five hundred years, living by the water and grass.
Only things are not absolute, finally, one day, Tang Gula remembered all the past, remembered his wife that he loved - Namtso, so he turned around, ignoring the woman who saved his heartbreaking plea, mounted his horse and ran to Namtso. Unfortunately, when Tang Gu La came to the former home, only to know, Namtso has melted into tears, into a lake of love to him to tell the five hundred years of waiting and love pain, the world's ultimate grief is no tears, Tang Gu La flung himself to the ground, will be transformed into a towering mountains, embracing the pure Namtso, he swore to guard her until the end of the world.
Tanggula is certainly infatuated, and his final infatuation with Namtso is certainly touching, but for the woman who saved him and stayed with him for five hundred years, how could she not be unfeeling?
Namtso is one of the three sacred lakes of Tibet, Tibetans have the custom of turning the lake to Namtso in the Year of the Sheep to pray for blessings. Every year of the sheep, if people come to worship at this time, turn the lake chanting once, better than the usual pilgrimage to turn the lake chanting 100,000 times, the blessing is infinite. So every Tibetan year of the sheep, monks and lay believers do not hesitate to travel long distances, to turn the lake. To go to the time is not the Year of the Sheep, and all turn lake activities in the lunar calendar in mid-April, and we went to the time is September, so we just walk along the lake will return to Lhasa, after all, the altitude here is quite high, and is not suitable for us to stay for a long time.
Suspected that the dream is not a lake, ethereal and clear painting difficult to figure.
The relative heart of the morning and evening is like a wash, the previous life **** water floating.
I heard that people with destiny can see their own past lives in Namtso. Maybe I'm not a man of destiny, so I did not see it, interested friends can go to try to see.
