I decided to take my friends out for a self-driving tour during the long vacation. This time, I mainly visited Seda Wuming Buddhist College. I heard that it is being rebuilt and will lose its original appearance. So I decided to go again. I have traveled by myself in some places such as Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Qinghai, Gansu, Sichuan, Guizhou, Guangxi, Yunnan, and some classic places. Only Seda makes me fascinated!
Just follow me on this journey of returning to the soul and returning to the soul!

There is only a stream named Nazugou between Xisuo residence and Zhuo Keji official village.

Larung Gar Buddhist Academy
I drove into Tibet via Wuming Buddhist Academy in July 2011, and it was not yet open at that time. So I drove into the hall hidden in the ravine, and was shocked by the densely packed small red wooden houses and the hall of the college! It wasn't open yet due to limited hours, so I stayed for a few minutes and then left. When the car left Tallinn, I looked back, but I can never forget your face!
…………… 6 years have passed and now I come here again, just because I took one more look at you during the journey! ! !
Larung Gar Buddhist Academy
Seda, which means "golden horse" in Tibetan, is named after a "horse head"-shaped gold was found in this rich and beautiful grassland according to legend. Thousands of red wooden houses surround several magnificent halls like stars and moons - it is the Wuming Buddhist Academy of Larong Temple hidden in the deep mountains.
In 1980, the Dharma King Jigme Phuntsok Ji Xiangxian established a university college that does not favor Buddhism in the practice place of the first Dunzhu Rinpoche - Seda Laronggou, which is the quiet place of the rainbow light body of the great secret vehicle. At that time, there were only 30 Yu people.
Larung Gar Buddhist Academy
Surrounded by mountains, the monastic houses in the ditch, centered on the Sutra Hall of the Buddhist Academy, are densely packed on the surrounding hillsides, and countless crimson red cabins stretch so endlessly that you can't see the end at a glance. These red cabins are the residences of more than 10,000 monks.
Buddha said meet!
What everyone meets and sees has already been arranged, and everything depends on fate!
Seda Wuming Buddhist Academy is the largest in the world
Seda Wuming Buddhist Academy Wonders of the World
Sertar, the place where the soul wakes up
Seda, the place where life can be reincarnated
Seda is a place where dreams can come true
Seda, a place where time does not flow
Seda Buddhist College: The full name is Larung Temple Wuming Buddhist College in Seda County, located in Seda County, Ganzi Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province, at an altitude of 4,000 meters.
The Buddhist Academy takes exams twice a year, and every morning at six o'clock I hear voices urging Little Yama to recite sutras, and sometimes she will be reprimanded if she makes a mistake. The academic system of the college is generally 6 years, and special subjects require 13 years of study. Morning class, afternoon class, and sometimes evening class every day. Even in snowy days, you have to walk down the muddy mountain road without interruption.
A touch of red, a road, a piece of blue sky, a heart...
Seda Larung Wuming Buddhist Academy was founded by King Jigme Phuntsok in 1980. In just a few years, it rose rapidly from the depths of a valley in the Tibetan area and became the largest Tibetan Buddhist Academy in the world. More than 30,000 monks practice and live here.
These are all friends of 20 years.
Now there is a special bus for visiting Wuming Buddhist College. You can queue up at the gate for 3 yuan per person. After arriving at the central area of the Buddhist College, get off and walk to the mandala, where you will see the panoramic view of the Buddhist College. After that, you can choose to return to the gate by car on the same road, or you can choose to walk down the mountain from the mandala to the gate. The whole tour process takes about 3 hours.
6 years have passed and now I am here again. The Seda Buddhist College will not be demolished and is being transformed into a better college...but its original appearance is about to disappear!
Wuming Buddhist Academy is improving the passages for students and tourists, improving the environment and facilities, and building fire exits. So now it looks more messy! I believe Wuming Buddhist Academy will be even better in the future!
