Lama is a Tibetan word with specific meanings. La means the supreme wisdom, Ma means the supreme mercy and Lama means the person who possesses the both characters. People who don’t know well about Tibetan Buddhism tend to refer Lama as monks of other places. However, in fact, not all monks can be called Lama, neither all Lamas monks. There are also Lamas who stay at home instead of monasteries or temples being able to get married like common people. However, the Lamas in the monasteries are different. Are you curious about the life of Lamas? If you want to know them, you may visit some monasteries to see them during your
lhasa tour. Or maybe you can check some
tibet travel guide or
tibet travel advice to know more information about Lamas and monasteries in tibet. Well, now, why not just apply for a
tibet travel permit and prepare your
Tibet tours?
