Tell you the real Tibet in my experience

Although this winter was the first time that I went to the Tibet, for 18 days, only went to the Lhasa, the Lhoka and the Nyingchi; and visited ten temples, of which had the whole complete coverage of three temples. In a world, it is cheerful. And finally, I have taken my own opinions about Tibet that I saw the comments and views on the internet. So, maybe you are in your travel from Beijing to Tibet, or over your Tibet travel from Shanghai, you also need get more shares about the Tibet!

1. Tibet is a mysterious land of promise, which can wash away the dirty of the heart.

Tibet is not a mysterious also does not have the magic power, just is a field of place which have experienced one thousand years practice, and in its nooks and corners have unchangeable Buddhism stamp. It could not clear off although the government or party spends through the decades of management. The Tibetan people have their own beliefs, it is difficult to be changed easily by the Han people’s opinion that “who give you the milk, she is your mother”. The Tibet does not have the doing of “stoop to compromise”, it is different to the other domestic scenic spot, but do in its own way. I like it!

Most of the cleaning heart articles which are online are some works which are mirage by the older literary young ladies, it seems that no matter your life has what problem as long as to go to Tibet and go around, feel the cold wind blows; then have a look about the snow mountain; get some tears trickle, all of the problems will be solved. In the brother hotel guest room wall of the Pai town, I saw the messages which were written by the countless suffering literary young women who were full of tears. For me, I'm just confused; the tour for me, always is a simple and happy thing, it is won't be combine with the life goal that this disappointing things involved in together! I met a male artist who was influenced by such articles torment and went out to look for the life goal on the way. He was filled of the ambitious and wanted to go the no man's land, but the result was that he even could not go pass the hills which was near the Namcha Barwa. I didn't ask if he found his life's goal, as far as I was concerned, he was just a very lonely person, and because of the art, he was pretty arrogant and extreme ignorance.

2. Tibet is a very tough place.

This is totally nonsense, from the history, that place has the human living for thousands of years time, although its elevation is higher, the wind is a little cold, but the Tibetans have been lived comfortable in this place. If the Han people can't get used to the local diet and cannot adapt to the local conditions, it should be said that is the han Chinese’s own problems. In addition, at least I have been to Lhasa, Tsedang and Nyingchi, with my standard speaking, completely not hard. Also there are the different levels of food and lodging, I don't know why someone takes plateau reaction to flaunt their own? Especially the show business people, just like that I recently saw the Han Hong concert, surprisingly as a Tibetan offspring, she came to Tibetan incredibly want the oxygen uptake!

3. Turning the temple will take you too much energy.

For this point, I have no thought preparation. Because the camera is disappointing, but also because of the general temple don't let people take pictures, the requirement about the travel of tuning temple is similar as the locals do the turn temple. But I soon found, I could not even compare with the local people, they in a hurry in each Buddha salute, charity, past in each the sutra depository leisurely, or even took a kowtow. I can keep up with their footsteps, but in kowtow, I don't have any advantages, somebody else simply agile a head cracking down, then immediately smooth climb up to the next bodhisattva. But I need slowly to squat down bottom, seeing a place, look at the surrounding Tibetan posture, in the study practice, and the most difficult part is part of the climb up. I slowly climb up, even the old Tibetan than I agile, and kowtow is very hard, until I climbed up, just like walk steps up with asthma. For kowtow this matter, I have to admit that I'm ashamed of failure! But for other parts, I think I finish for good, even when I wore masks, can pretend to be the locals in the temple.

As a Han people, at the beginning, I almost underestimate the turn temple. But have the own experience will be totally different. In order to maintain a belief or reposing, what the Tibetan people need to pay more is physical strength, all open hall of the temple need to enter, each bodhisattva before all need to salute. The temple will not criticize your sacrifice, and a dime or a spoon ghee can also, the whole process is willing take you much energy, in my personal actual experience is concerned, each the big temple need a day time at least!

4. All will be fall in love with Tibet after you travel to Tibet. 

This is perhaps the biggest harvest of this travel, I know that the people who said this is a jaunt tourists, a silly literature youth who is for Tibet he or she has infinite good imagination and esteem. I know the Han Chinese who stay in Tibet for long-term in the journey, no one said like this place. One female soldier has to be there for ten years, just can't leave there for helpless and regret. They worry about the problem is very practical, worry about the children grew up in plateau and mental retardation; worry about the children in Tibet is not good education; worry about their own visceral because long-term in plateau and produce irreversible deformation; worry because long-term carnivorous and no vegetables in nutrient unbalance. The point of view is completely different for a long-term residents and a short-term tourist.

As a tourist, we like Tibet maybe just because it is beautiful, but our concern is the beauty of it, can't see the difference under the beauty.

5. The Tibetan boys are very enthusiastic.

Perhaps this is a kind of illusion for the Han nationality literature and art female youth. Tibetan boys and Han boys are same, it is the more casual in men and women relation, their expression but more direct some of it. They will come straight and chat up: “your eyes are very like one of my missing friends, can you put the mask off and let me see your face?” If it is Han boys, it is estimated that will be as a rascal! Tibetan boys show to your enthusiasm, their purpose is completely consistent with the Han boy! It does not have any difference for you.

Many literary young woman is moved easily by the local boy, especially be attracted by the handsome lama. It is not to say that the lama because you want to resume secular life, but only because it is his part of the practice.

6. Tibetan boys are very handsome

Yes, but only in Kangba Tibetan. And GongBu and Anduo Tibetan people are very general, looks like the man in the Anhui province.

7. Tibetans is not care the hygiene

This opinion varies from person to person. Because of the ultraviolet ray, they are also black, look a little dirty. But another effect of the ultraviolet is sterilization. If only from the point of this view, Tibetans are more clean than us. And in the cold zone, people do not to sweat, even if sweating, also won't like the people from Shanghai as pent up in the body, generation "meat trapping", so although most Tibetan man does not reject the wine and smoke, but there is not very unbearable smell.

8. The romantic affair occurs in there

The romantic affairs need a lot of favorable conditions, but can not to force, also need the fate, but so long as he tried it, if the other party also has no reaction, that is no useful.
