Monastery in Tibet, China
Lamaling Monastery, also known as Zangdrok Pelri Monastery and Burqug Lamaling (布久喇嘛林寺), is a Buddhist monastery located near the village of Jianqie, Burqug Township, Bayi District, in Tibet, on a small hill 1.5 km south of Buchu Monastery. The monastery belongs to the Nyingmapa sect, translated as the 'Ancient Ones'; their lineages go back to the first infusion of Buddhism from India to Tibet in the 7th century CE. The Nyingma sect incorporated many of the traditions of the native Tibetan Bon religion, which respects nature and local nature spirits.
