We went on a field trip to a sacred lake about five hours from Dharamsala called Tso Pema, or Lotus Lake. Tenzin, Geshela's friend, was leading a tour group of Korean Buddhist tourists and invited us to come along. The lake is a pilgrimage site for Tibetan Buddhists as it was the homeland of the great Buddhist saint, Padmasambhava, who is famous as one of the first to bring Buddhist teachings to Tibet in around 700AD.
