Cho - Positive Change of Mind, Ki - Peace Choki - Peaceful Transformation of the Mind Follow us: http://www.facebook.com/chokiart The culture of Bhutan teaches us how to develop compassion in ourselves, others, and all forms of life. Through traditional art and meditation practices, we learn equanimity in all situations. We learn to view all living beings, humans, animals, insects, and plants as sacred and inherently the same as ourselves. We also develop calmness in our minds so that peace, compassion, joy, tolerance and forbearance can be inwardly experienced by ourselves and outwardly experienced to others. Compassion has no judgment, competition, jealousy, anger, fear, sadness, pride or attachment. Compassion places nothing above or below anything else. Compassion with wisdom sees everything with clarity, just as it is existing in the present moment. Choki At Choki, a US Nonprofit, we are happy to help to preserve, support, and encourage this philosophy for the benefit of all at the expense of none through assistance to sacred monasteries, traditional schools, as well as other cultural centers that are treasures of this world. In addition, Choki represents this philosophy throughout the United States inspiring all to be greatest self to inspire others.

Choki causes in Bhutan: Sustainability for the Choki Traditional Art School: CTAS is full with ever smiling students from all ages. Most of them are orphans and CTAS provides everything for them, a warm home and education. The students learn art techniques that have been passed down through generations and each piece of artwork they do is a reflection of a tradition that has been untouched by outer influences. Every brush stroke and etching is made by the students for all to receive merit or dharma who view the artwork. To learn more about this cause: http://www.choki.org/ourcauses/choki-... Classroom Construction at Nalanda Monastery: Originally constructed in India in the 5th century, Nalanda was a center for sacred learning throughout Asia. A vast amount of what came to compromise Buddhism stems from 9th century teachings. Unfortunately, around 1200 AD, the center was destroyed by the muslim army. However, in 1754, the temple was rebuilt in Bhutan after recognizing a number of auspicious signs correlating to the history of the original Nalanda. Today, Nalanda is on top of the Himalayan mountains, carrying on ancient tradition through 140 orphaned students learning buddhist philosophy, ritual instruments, scriptures, prayer ceremonies, english, and buddhist logic. Every child has a story to tell and from a very early age, they already understand what most of us won’t realize until the end of our lives, that we must respect all forms of life to live in harmony and that happiness come within ourselves and not from material things.
