A brief programme for the last day of the 5-day "Londha" 2017 ended successfully. The Pazaaps are being escorted by the "Zhepoen" with Bang-nga Tingting and Bjepai Paw at the forefront - from "Amai Lhashing" to the archery ground.
While many outside people must have thought that Toktops can't effort to decorate "Amai Dhakar" with Reldri and Khorlo like Chungkha. But this can't be done rather it should be a simple "Lhewshing" which is Her only tree. If we don't heed to this tradition, there would be a serious consequences in the village.
As per Zhepoen, almost two decades ago, Aum Pelden Dem's husband late Nidup Budha had modified the Amai Dhakar by affixing Reldri and Khorlo, and kept on top of the chorten as we do even now. Suddenly, the strong wind gushed out from nowhere, and blew off the Dhakar on the ground. The broken Khorlo and Reldri was then immediately replaced with a simple "Lhewshing". As soon as it was replaced, the wind subsided and everything became normal. Therefore, we keep Amai Dhakar only "Lhewshing" without making Khorlo and Reldri.
