Buli Tsho

I am sorry it won’t be sensible unless you understand Khengkha. I have requested the caretaker do in Dzongkha, but he felt Khengkha would be the best way to convey. He gave us permission to record and share his messages.

Well here is some parts of oral account on Buli Tsho. Please believe or visit Buli Tsho.

Its believed Buli Tsho was once located in Zhongar present Mongar.  Story tells that Zhongar had a cruel King protected by a mermaid of the Tsho. The King’s sheer cruelty did not please his subject. Dissatisfied with the king's behavior, the people destroyed the environment around the lake, forcing the mermaid to flee. My wife from Mongar endorses the story and beliefs. She complements that Buli Tsho ran or was moved from her village Takchu in Mongar.   

The caretaker explains in a video how the mermaid came to Buli and sought refuge with one of the residents. She was given the central open room but took the altar room instead. The mermaid warned the grandma host not to open nor peek through the doors. The night set off well.

Next day, since she did not show any sign of getting out of the alter room. Curiosity got the better of three grandmas, who peeked and saw her upper half as a human covered in ornaments and her lower half as a snake in the water. Despite the host's defiance, the mermaid left few jewels and a milk churner as a token of gratitude. Some believe that if the host had complied with her request, the house would have been filled with treasures and more.

The caretaker also shares another story about how a local girl became a companion to the Buli Maenmo Tsho and received a dowry in return. Please watch and listen.
