DSS GRADE XI HIKING TO NAMO BUDDHA
DSS GRADE XI HIKING TO NAMO BUDDHA

Introduction:

On September 21, 2024 we the students of grade 11 set out to explore Namobuddha located in the heart of Panauti. This report describes the experiences and fun we had in our one day hike to the southeast outskirts of Kathmandu valley intertwined with ancient Buddhist practices.

Hike Overview:

At around 8:30 am we left our school, and arrived at Panauti after one and half hours via bus. While on the way there we had a lot of fun on the bus singing and dancing like there was no tomorrow. While the ride was fun for some but for others it was a challenge coping up with motion sickness. The bus was parked nearly half an hour away from the trail. With the beginning of our hike we started to collect the plastic wastes scattered along the trail. We all were assigned with a garbage bag to collect the garbage along our way. The path was really beautiful, covered with greenery,  and the weather was also perfect. Soon we were greeted with a long set of stairs leading to our destination. Carrying the garbage bag on one hand and climbing up the steps was quite challenging and exhausting. Upon reaching the top we stopped by to catch our breath and for pictures. We encountered a foreign tourist with whom we had a great conversation. Our group went on exploring the place and soon we realized that we were on the wrong path. Upon reuniting with our other group we clicked some group pictures and then went for more sightseeing. The beautiful architecture of the Tibetan Buddhist monastery was mesmerizing. As it was situated atop a hill the 360 view of the valley beneath was appealing. It is believed that one of the princes of that region was once out on hunting. While he explored the jungle he came across a cave with a mother tiger and her cubs. The prince was quick to notice that the tiger had just given birth and was really weak and needed food. The prince without any hesitation sliced up bits of his flesh to feed the mother and her young ones which lead to the prince’s death. His family built a stupa over the place he was buried to honor him.

Our first destination was Budhanilkantha, Shivapuri National Park gate. The journey was pretty long so for entertainment, we danced the whole way. Most of us danced to the music’s beat whereas some of them were not interested. Due to our crazy dances, the bus was shaking. We reached our destination in about 40 minutes.
