2 Timothy 3:16,17 NKJV " All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness, that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work."-------------------------------------------------------------------------Every new device comes with an instruction manual. Some people will always read the manual first so that they have some idea of what to do. Others will ignore the manual, and just try and figure it out on their own. Do you know that we all have an instruction manual for life? It's the Bible! [ Romans 15:4] " For whatever things were written before were written for our learning, that we through the patience and comfort of the scriptures might have hope."----- Everything we need to know about salvation, living a Godly life, and maintaining our faith is in the Bible. The men and women we read about were just like us; They had faults, illness, doubts, and fears to deal with. The Bible is an immovable anchor in the storms of life. No other book has the inspiration, truth, and power of the word of God. [ Hebrews 4:12] " For the word of God is living and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the division of soul and spirit and, of joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart."---------------- The Bible is the book for everyone. It is revelation, inspiration, and communication of the eternal, living, and powerful God!

Narthang Monastery - Sakya Monastery

  

Narthang Monastery is a monastery located 15 km west of Shigatse in Tibet. Founded in 1153 by one of the disciples of Atisha, Nathang was the fourth great monastery of Tsang with Shalu Monastery, Sakya and Tashilhunpo. Narthang was first famous for its scriptual teaching and monastic discipline. After the fourteenth century it gained great eminence as the oldest of Tibet's three great printing centres (the other being the Potala and the Derge).

 

The Fifth Panchen Lama took control of the monastery and it continued printing the Buddhist scriptures the Kangyur and the Tengyur up until 1959. Narrthang's five main buildings and large chanting hall were razed to the ground by the Chinese in 1966. They had contained priceless 14th century murals possibly painted by the artist scholars of nearby Shalu Monastery. Today only the mud-brick foundations can be discerned although parts of the Mongolian styled high-fortress walls are still standing.

The Tibetan Plateau, also known in China as the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau or the Qingzang Plateau or Himalayan Plateau, is a vast elevated plateau in Central Asia or East Asia, covering most of the Tibet Autonomous Region and Qinghai Province in western China, as well as part of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir state of India. It stretches approximately 1,000 kilometres north to south and 2,500 kilometres east to west. With an average elevation exceeding 4,500 metres , the Tibetan Plateau is sometimes called "the Roof of the World" and is the world's highest and largest plateau, with an area of 2,500,000 square kilometres (about five times the size of Metropolitan France). Sometimes termed the "Third Pole", the Tibetan Plateau is the headwaters of the drainage basins of most of the streams in surrounding regions. Its tens of thousands of glaciers and other geographical and ecological features serve as a "water tower" storing water and maintaining flow. The impact of global warming on the Tibetan Plateau is of intense scientific interest.
