Tibet,a pilgrim from far
away dusts himself and bursts into tears on putting his hands into Holy River Yarlung
Tsangpo, the highest big river in the world flowing with glories from west to east, which
is regarded as the geo-suture between Gondwana and Laurasia, two super-continents by
geologists, and the ophilite suites here and there along the river are supposed to be
remains of Paleozoic Crust.
After great hardship, ancient people from the Subcontinent crossed over Himalayas bristled
with snow-capped peaks and found themselves in the vastness of West Tibet, where stands
Kang( mountain) Rinboqe(apotheosis). They believed the mountain was the seat of
Shiva,their own god while Chinese takes it as Sumeru in Buddhism, the centre of universe,
for Buddha Sakyamuni said, ¡°It is a real mandala!¡±
The run in famous South Tibet Valley witnessed the first Tibetan king descending from the
sky. The heavenly boy was green-skinned, web-toed and web-fingered with the eyelids
stretching to the bridge of his nose and earlaps touching his shoulders. Tibetan kings¡¯
achievements in culture and military has made a Buddhist nation and Tibetan civilization
shines north Himalayas, east to Min Mountains, west to Kashmir and north to Caucasia
The Mother River starts following the tectonic rock-are of Mt. Namjaqbarwa at about 95E
¨C 29N and makes a spectacular U-shaped turning. The great river southwardly cuts through
the massive east end of Himalayas into the rich diluvial plain of Northeast Sub-continent
and finally into Bengal Bay. Peasants on the delta gaze at the noble water pouring down
from the unattainable white heaven and can not help calling in a soft voice: ¡°Bramaputra!¡±
