The 12th day of hiking in Tibet
Luding County is about 5 kilometers away from Kangding, and it is planned to be completed in two days.
today's destination: wasi village, with a journey of 25 kilometers.
It can be clearly felt that after crossing Erlang Mountain, prices began to rise.
it's at least 1 to 2 percentage points more expensive than the mainland.
after buying two days' dry food, I went out of town along Chengwu Road.
a few kilometers west of the city, a large hydropower station is being built, and the road is rugged and dusty.
However, I saw the first Mani stone next to the construction site, on which were engraved the six-character mantra!
The so-called six-character mantra is the mantra of Guanyin Bodhisattva in Tibetan Buddhism, which is transliterated in Sanskrit: om, ma, ni, ba, mi, moo!
it is said that it means: treasure, lotus!
The six-character mantra of Tibetan legends is the most perfect blessing in the world. It can accumulate merits and eliminate disasters if recited frequently!
I silently prayed for the success of this trip, and I hope this blessing will bring good luck to my friends!
The arm is tanned and red, and it has begun to peel off.
in order to reduce the load, I took off two long-sleeved shirts before leaving, which was a mistake!
Arriving at Wasigou and staying at Washekou Hotel, the conditions are much better than before.
The boss only accepts me 2 yuan.
I saw the White Pagoda and colorful prayer flags for the first time in Wasgou ...
It is said that in Tibetan Buddhism, white represents compassion, and the White Pagoda represents a place where sacred sites have appeared. As a symbolic treasure for believers to worship, it is also a deterrent and suppresses evil.
Wherever there are white pagodas, there must be Tibetans living here, and there must be Tibetans coming here to pray.
Multicolored prayer flags: In Tibetan areas, you can see colorful prayer flags hanging in mountain passes, riverside areas, roadsides, temples and other places that are considered to have aura.
They are called prayer flags because they are all printed with Buddhist scriptures. In the eyes of people who believe in Tibetan Buddhism, the prayer flags that dance with the wind are just chanting once, constantly conveying people's wishes to God and praying for God's protection.
The farther west you go, the stronger the Tibetan culture, and the more wonderful the scenery ...
All the way is a purgatory for the body and a paradise for the eyes;
It's worth a long journey just for this sight ...
It's windy in the valley at night, haha, it's undoubtedly a wise decision to stay in an inn tonight ...
