I was so fortunate to be able to visit Bhutan in 1977. There was no airport, so I sent by land. There were very few roads. I was teaching and coaching basketball in a school in India, in the Himalayas. We were guests of the king and played 3 exhibition matches against the king and his bodyguards. He was very fond of basketball. I fell in love with the country and its people and have since visited 3 more times. My wife even has been another 3 times, once accompanied by 28 friends and another time with 15.

We lost all 3 games, but they were not fixed. Their guys were bigger. The 4 body guards made a zone and the king played on top of the key. As soon as one of our guys took a shot, his Majesty would start sprinting for the other end and they would throw him a long pass to make a lay- up. He was the high scorer in all 3 games.

[@danwindsor770]

After the first game, his Majesty invited us for dinner at the palace. Then he asked us to join him in his private quarters. He was a big NBA fan and he had had video of the latest playoff game, with the Philadelphia 76 ers. Just him and our team. For my boys, it was the first time they had ever watched an NBA game.

@@Alexandra.Symone Yes, Lotshampas of that time were terrorists. They went against the King of the country and had conspiracy to establish their own state by not abiding the laws. Who would not such people be thrown out of the country?

[@hoomanbeaning]

@@Alexandra.Symone In the annals of Bhutan's history, a challenging chapter stands out - a period when the kingdom found itself compelled to implement drastic measures to protect its sovereignty. This phase unfolded against the backdrop of political unrest caused by the presence of Nepali refugees seeking their own separate land. To safeguard its nation, Bhutan reluctantly resorted to implementing a "one nation, one people" policy, which eventually led to a series of unfortunate events, culminating in the Nepali refugees being asked to leave the country. Bhutan, known for its unique cultural identity and commitment to preserving its traditional values, had long embraced an open-door policy, welcoming Nepali refugees fleeing political instability in neighboring Nepal. Initially, these refugees were granted asylum and allowed to reside in Bhutan, creating a harmonious coexistence. However, over time, tensions arose as some Nepali refugees began demanding a separate territory, defying Bhutan's principle of a united nation. Recognizing that the demands for a separate land threatened Bhutan's very foundation, the government reluctantly took a decisive step to implement a policy aimed at ensuring unity and national integrity. The "one nation, one people" policy was introduced with the intention of upholding Bhutanese sovereignty and preserving its unique cultural heritage. Regrettably, a portion of the Nepali refugee population refused to comply with this policy, leading to protests and escalating tensions. Bhutan's leadership, confronted with a grave dilemma, faced the agonizing choice of either compromising its sovereignty or taking measures to maintain its cultural integrity and national unity. The decision to ask those who opposed the policy to leave the country was undoubtedly a difficult one, as it resulted in a humanitarian crisis. The departure of the Nepali refugees marked a painful chapter in Bhutan's history, impacting both the lives of those who had sought refuge and the Bhutanese people who had once welcomed them. During these tumultuous times, it is important to acknowledge that the world was facing numerous conflicts and territorial disputes. Many countries found themselves grappling with similar challenges as they strived to protect their own national interests amidst global turmoil. The Bhutanese crisis unfolded against a backdrop of shifting international alliances, armed conflicts, and the unsettling specter of countries invading others. These external factors undoubtedly exerted additional pressure on Bhutan, further complicating an already challenging situation. While the events surrounding Bhutan's decision may evoke a sense of unease and raise questions about the means employed, it is essential to view this chapter in its historical context. The Bhutanese people and their leaders were confronted with an arduous task of safeguarding their nation's sovereignty while grappling with internal divisions and external uncertainties. In the present day, Bhutan continues to evolve, focusing on reconciliation and building a harmonious society. Lessons learned from the past inform the nation's commitment to inclusive policies, respect for human rights, and a multicultural ethos that embraces diversity. The memory of the crisis serves as a poignant reminder of the delicate balance nations often face when preserving their sovereignty in an ever-changing world.

Same here, ངེས་ཤེས! Happiness is often imposed on many of our lives; we have to pretend to be happy when the reality is different. Many of my friends aspire to go abroad and settle there. These types of tour campaigns tend to favor those in power and support their propaganda, rather than addressing the challenges faced by ordinary Bhutanese citizens.

Since Buddhism started in India, Bhutan must have had very early on relationship & connectivity to India but eventually disconnected themselves from the world... Fascinating to see how they preserved their Buddhist culture... Must be the real raw form of Buddhism as Buddha taught i'd imagine!

[@walkwithmisuk]

Their Buddhism is similar to that of Tibet

[@teovu5557]

Buddhism enter bhutan last in most of east asia and came from tibetan buddhism(which is a new school of buddhism mixed with native Bon religion). It is actually very far from the buddhism of the first buddha. The closest version is extinct and was in Afghsnistan and was killed off during the islamic invasion of the area in the 9th-11century ad. The closest now is probably in Sri Lanka.. fun fact: the reason buddhsim enter tibet n bhutan last amonst asian nations even though it is the closest east asian/south east asian nation to India is because of the massive mountain ranges that separate it from india making travel very hard despite being literally next door.
