In May 2016, I had been to Gangtok, Sikkim to visit My Sister Family who moved there from Mangalore as My Brother law had got a job there in as a lecturer in a Medical College. I had chilled there in Gangtok the first few days, went to the few sightseeing sights and had from the local food joints. You know, just wake up, go out for walks Eat, sleep and repeat.
I got really comfortable at Gangtok. Then at one point, My sister got annoyed and she was like "You need to get out of Gangtok". So within the next few days, I was riding pillion on a bike with my brother in law having a quick 3 day ride around the state of Sikkim.

So when I had reached Namchi, I had come by to see the Majestic Statue of Buddhist Guru Padmasambhava. He is seen holding a five-pronged Vajra or Diamond on his right hand, facing the ground and portrays dominance over the evil forces. This was My attempt to capture that.
