A traditional handwritten, undecorated and unbound Tibetan book (pecha), telling the story of Nangsa Odbum. Written in Tibetan Uchen script on separate sheets of paper. Like many Buchen texts, this is an edifying biographical /hagiographical story (namthar) used to illustrate and explain essential Buddhist ideas of karma and impermanence. It is in generally good condition for its age of approx 150 years or more. Size 310 x 85 mm (complete). Wooden block print on handmade paper. 1 volume of 174 paper folios
The material is owned by Meme Tsering Tobgye and has been handed down from father to son through several generations of head Buchen. All the materials in the archive are kept within the prayer room of the house. This was not seen: materials were brought out into the living room to be surveyed and documented. These Tibetan texts are in numbered sequence.
