From the archive record
Located on the outskirts of Tawang town, Urgelling Monastery was built around AD 1487. Almost two centuries later Tsangyang Gyatso, H.H. the Sixth Dalai Lama, was born here in 1683. Miraculous deeds were attributed to him, one of which is recounted on a plaque outside the temple. It reads, “Legend has it that at the time of leaving for Tibet, Tsangyang Gyatso planted his walking stick and prophesied that he would once again visit Tawang when all three trunks that would grow out of it had attained equal heights. Truly it happened, but unfortunately one of the trunks broke in 1959 due to strong wind, an ominous sign. Soon afterward the people of Tawang saw H.H. the Dalai Lama coming once again, this time as the great fourteenth on his way to India in exile.” Bomdila Monastery, constructed by
