Letter To Daughter 2

 Dear Zamin,

Today on this very suspicious day, 10th day of 7th month of Bhutanese calendar, the day of Guru Rinpoche, I would like to write how you father and myself got your name "Tshering Tshueltrim Choden". Actually I could have written this as soon as we got your name, but I couldn't write it as I was more engaged in beautiful and amazing journey of bringing you up till this age. Today as I get littel freedom to express, I thought of writing it down so that one fine day you will love to read this piece written by your mom with full heart and love.

You were born on a very special and a fine day at Jigme Dorji Wangchuck National Referral Hospital on 12th September 2019, exactly at 1:5pm. That day was the biggest day of your mom and dad. And especially to your mother, it was a history of her life. You came as a blessing, as a gift from the god and with your arrival, you brought lots of good lucks and good wishes on this beautiful earth. 

Regarding your name, we didn't name you immidetely or withing few days after you were born. We waited for few weeks to get your name with blessing and good wishes in your life from lamas and Rinpoches. In order to get your name, we requested your name from three great Rinpoches. 

Dilgo Khentsey Yangsi Rinpoche gave your name as Tshering Choden, the name of late Khando ' Tshering Choden'. It represents that your life will be long with religious mind.

Next one is, we requested Gyelsey Trulku and Rinpoche gave your name as Tshueltrim Zangmo. This means that your are a girl with good heart and behaviour.

And finally we had requested Dodrupchen Rinpoche, and Rinpoche gave your name as Dechen Choden. It means that you will be messed with good life with religious mind.

In your ketse, you were named as pema Choden. Which indicate that your are lotus which is very pure and your mind with religious activities. So after jumbling all these four names, finally your father and myself have decided to keep your names as " Tshering Tshueltrim Choden" with so much of wishes and love that one fine day this name will be famous with her own identity and definition. So hope you will like the choices your dad and mom made for your. 

Thank you

With love your Mom
