Long before the rugged Himalayan region was conquered by the benevolence of Buddhism and the blessings of Lord Buddha and his many loyal guardians, the lands were at the mercy of powerful deities and terrifying spirits. People's houses were converted to small fortresses to ward off evil creatures and the populations were at the mercy of divine madmen, possessed bonpo shamans. When the famous Guru Rinpoche was brought in from India by King Trisong Detsen the bonpos may finally and officially have converted, but their masters and deities persisted and the old guard never went away. Under the Parikrama moniker, Seetyca and Artin Mucht search for traces of the old faith. Small villages and crumbling dzongs are the starting points for excursions into the vastness of the old guard. Even under the shadow of Mount Kailash the presence of Buddha Tönpa Shenrab can be felt. Allow yourself to be lost in the old world of Parikrama and remember to equip a spirit catcher and carry your phurba close to you at all times.
