  • Sunchok is a special prayer performed (only) in Pin Valley for the long life and prosperity of a person. It is a grand event with close to a hundred monks and hundreds, even thousands of guests attending.

    This is such a beautiful community living. each family takes care of the other to celebrate so that no family is deprived of happiness. Its good of the lamas too to reduce their fees so that all families can have the opportunity to perform the rituals.. Extremely thoughtful gestures. This feels like another world altogether.

    Attending a Sunchok is now on my bucketlist, thanks to you! :-)
    And since it is an autumn festival, the temperatures in Pin Valley shouldn't be too low or uncomfortable.
    Already talking to my local friends from Dhansar and Tabo to see if I can attend one in future.
    My friends are shocked to know that I want to attend a Sunchok, and say, "Aapko hamare ghar ka Sunchok attend karne aana hai!" :-)
    Amazing warm-hearted people of Spiti. Makes you want to leave everything and join their tribe.
