Monasticism is one of the most famous original institutions
of Buddhism. Monks and nuns are dependable for preserving and spreading
Buddhist wisdom, as well as humanizing and guiding Buddhist followers. Buddhist
monasteries emerged from the perform
of vassa, the retreat undertaken by Buddhist monks and nuns during the South
Asian rainy period.
According
to a legend Buddhist Yumbulagang temple was the first construction in Tibet and
the palace of the first Tibetan king, Nyatri Tsenpo. Its first name means
“Palace of Mother and Son” in Tibetan. Below the reign of the 5th Dalai Lama
the fort became a monastery of the Gelugpa School. Miserably, it was deeply spoiled
and abridged to a single storey during the Cultural Revolution but was
reconstructed in 1983.
