Bhutan: The Lotus and the Clear Mind

  • Feb 22
  • 1 min read

Bhutan wasn't planned, but it planned me. My brother Greg introduced me to his friend Pema, whose name means lotus - beauty rising from the mud, clarity rising through complexity. she graciously guided me through her country, introducing me to its rhythms, its quiet strength, and its sacred spaces.


Prayer flags in the wind.

Butter lamps glowing softly.

Mountains holding silence like a sacred object.


Bhutan doesn't rush you.

It steadies you.


And in a quiet way, it rearranged me.
