LADAKH (The Land of Celebrations) |
|
|
Ladakh is a land that abounds
in awesome physical features set in an enormous landscape
and, therefore it appears beautifully desolate and remote.
Yet over the centuries, it has imbibed diverse ethnic,
religious, cultural influences through the many missionaries’
explorers and traders who traversed its windswept plateaus
and deep Valleys. In the process it has been able to Evolve
and inherit a rich culture, which survives even today
as a living heritage of the Western Himalayas.
This heritage finds manifestation in
the region’s monuments, monasteries, art and oral
literature, fairs and festivals and in the time-honored
tradition of collective celebration of various events.
, Here every occasion-Marriage, Birth, Farming and harvesting,
even the Flowering of Plants-is celebrated with great
Fanfare, marked with feasting, dancing and singing of
folk Songs that form part of its rich culture. In summer,
most village hold colorful archery festivals and thanksgiving
events, while in winter is the period in which most of
the religious festivals and social and cultural events
are held

THE
MONESTIC FESTIVAL (A Carnival of Life):- |
|
Among the many social and cultural events
of Ladakh, the Annual festivals held in the Buddhist
Monasteries constitute the most important part
of the religion’s living heritage. These festivals
are held to commemorate the founding of particular Monastery
or the birth Anniversary of its patron Saint, or major
events in the history and Evolution of Tibetan Buddhism.
Thousand of people turn out to attend these festivals
in their traditional dress, making every event a carnival
of colour. For the local people, participation in these
festivals serves the dual purpose of attaining religious
merits and social Entertainment, While for the visitors
they afford an opportunity to experience the richness
of the Religious and cultural heritage of Ladakh. |

The Mystic Dances: |
|
The core events of the monastic festival
is “CHHAMS”, a highly choreographed
sacred dance Drama performed by the lamas to the accompaniments
of mystic music played on the Monastic orchestra. These
Dances are performed not only to symbolizes the destruction
of evil spirits and dramatize the illusoriness of life,
but also as ritual offerings to the tutelary deities (
Yi-dam) of the monastery and guardians of the faith. A
select group of lamas of the monastery, dressed in brightly
patterned brocade robes, performs the dance in the Monastery
courtyard called “CHHAM-RA”.
The dancers wear various kind of masks some Fierce and
Grotesque, others berugn and pleasing. These re-present
various divinities from the Buddhist pantheons, most of
which found in the statue form in the “Gon-khang”-
the room dedicated to the guardian divinities in major
monasteries. Some of the masks may be even represent famous
character from Historical episodes of Tibetan fables.
The more fearsome ones represent various forms of the
protector of the religion (Dharmapalas)
actually Buddha’s and Bodhisattvas in their wrathful
tantric form. Other represents local guardian divinities,
originally GODS and DEMONS of the pre-Buddhist “Bonpo”
and “shamanist” belief system
that were tamed and integrated into the Buddhist pantheon
by “PADMASAMBHAVA” founder
of Tibetan Monasticism.
The monastic festival is usually held over a period of
2 days. The first day is meant for the ceremony of SER-KYEM
or gold liberation. The day begins with the performance
of the special prayers by the lamas of the monastery before
its main protective deity (YI-DAM). |
