Parinirvana

 


Today 14th June, 2022, the 15th day of the fourth Bhutanese calendar is Lord Buddha’s parinirvana It may also be known as Nirvana day.  It was on this day that the Buddha was conceived, born, subdued evil, gained enlightened and attained Nirvana.

It is considered one of the most auspicious days for Buddhist all over the world. Also on this day we should always remember that the death is uncertain and at anytime, anywhere it can happen so, always do good deeds and don’t harm others. This thought process reflects the Buddhist teaching on impermanence.

Hope you all have a great day and able to perform acts of virtues nature in body, speech and mind.  May your good merits multiplies in millions and benefit all sentient beings from untold sufferings.

The merit accumulated by a person we carries out any positive action or a good deed with devotion will be tremendous and if we commits a bad deed knowingly then the sin accumulated will also be tremendous. May all sentient beings attain enlightenment.

Doing no evil whatsoever,

Practice virtue perfectly,

Tame mind completely. 

Train in doing good that lasts and brings happiness.

Cultivate generosity, the life of peace and a mind of boundless love.

No one saves us but ourselves. No one can and no one may. We ourselves must walk the path”  


Our Life is too short

Make a merit 

Don’t make evil 

Have a purified mind


Have a good Day 😊

My first Interview experience at BKF

Today I had my first interview at Bhutan Kidney Foundation for the post of enumerator for one month. I was excited about the opportunity, but also nervous about the interview process. When I arrived, I realized that there were 17 other interviewees, which added to my anxiety. As the interview began, I found myself struggling to express my thoughts into words. I felt like I wasn't able to convey my skills and experience as effectively as I would have liked. Despite my nerves, I tried my best to answer each question to the best of my ability. After the interview, I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed in myself. I felt like I could have done better, and that my nerves got the best of me. However, I reminded myself that this was just one interview, and that there are many other opportunities out there. Looking back, I realize that I may have been too hard on myself. It's completely normal to feel nervous during an interview, especially when there are many other candida...

Social workers 🌿

This poem is composed after I return to this college from rural field practicum in 2021.   hope you will enjoy reading!                          A beacon of hope   Amidst the mountains high and grand, Lies a land of peace and serenity, But in its valleys deep and wide, The pain and suffering are plenty. I see the people of Bhutan, Living simple lives with contentment, Yet struggling to access basic needs, Denied by underdevelopment. As I step onto my social work course, My heart swells with determination, To help these kind souls rise and shine, To give them a voice and representation. I plan to work with communities, Listening and learning from their stories, Empowering them with skills and knowledge, To overcome their struggles and worries. I want to help create a world, Where every person has equal chance, To lead a life full of dignity, And live in peace and harmony dance. Though the journey is long and ...

Article review ✨

 The study on the situation of violence against women in Bhutan by NCWC provides insightful information on the state of women's safety in the country. However we could find different viewpoints on the study's findings. On the negative side, the study reveals alarming rates of intimate partner violence and sexual violence against women in Bhutan. For instance, out of the 1,000 women surveyed, nearly 63% reported experiencing at least one form of physical or sexual violence by their partners. Such findings suggest that the government and relevant stakeholders need to take urgent action to address the issue. Failure to do so perpetuates a culture of violence against women and makes it difficult for women to speak out against the abuse.  On the positive side, the study sheds light on the extent of violence against women and provides a much-needed platform for advocacy. The National Commission for Women and Children (NCWC) has taken proactive measures to address the issue, such as ...
