Posted on: August 18, 2022 | Back | Print

Embassy of India in Ljubljana under Amrit Mahotsav presents an online event in which Benoy K. Behl, India Habitat Centre, will hold a talk followed by film screening ‘Monasteries of Rinchen Zangpo’ at 1430 hrs (Central European Time) or 1800 hrs (Indian Standard Time) on Saturday, 20 August 2022.

This film takes us through the spectacular lands which lie beyond the high Himalayas. It is about the period of the early monasteries of Ladakh, Lahaul-Spiti, Kinnaur and Western Tibet.

All these early monasteries and temples were painted and sculpted by artists who were invited from Kashmir. These monasteries and their art laid the foundations of the later traditions of Buddhism in the trans-Himalayas. This involves exquisite art, which you will enjoy seeing for certain.

No registration or payment is required to attend the event. You are cordially invited to attend it.
