BIKKHUNI

Women in Buddhism is a topic that can be approached from varied perspectives including those of theology, history, anthropology and feminism. Topical interests include the theological status of women, the treatment of women in Buddhist societies at home and in public, the history of women in Buddhism, and a comparison of the experiences of women across different forms of Buddhism. As in other religions, the experiences of Buddhist women have varied considerably.

THE MONK

People travel and all around the globe in search of peace, yet we find it in very few places. The ethnicity and authenticity of the picture floods our minds with bliss. The colour of the clouds reflect, as though there are secrets for them to tell. The picture is thus just perfect, showing the importance of culture, tradition and peace in our monotonous lifes.

THE LOOK

SCHOOL BOY

This 6-7 year old boy was going to school with his “BAINI” (‘sister’ in Nepali). The enthusiasm of the children of the hill, in spite of the huge obstacles that they come across everyday, surprised me. This boy was an inspiration for me, while travelling through the challenging roads of Sikkim.

CONSCIENCE

The intentness of the boy attracted me so much that I ended up in portraying him. The boy, even though being so small, is bound with responsibilities. He seems to have a growing conscience, a moral sense of right or wrong. This guides him to his behaviour.  The face signifies us vividly about his inner voice.
