Tsunma, Tsunma: My Summer with the Female Monastics of the Himalaya
Tsunma, an honorific term connoting “noble, delicate, and pure”, refers to the Tibetan Buddhist Nuns of the Himalayan Region who have been largely dismissed or forgotten by the traditions they follow and the societies they’ve served. Taiwanese photographer Lin Li-Fang undertook a solo journey up 4,270 meters into the Himalayan Plateau and lived for an entire summer with some of these nuns and recorded life in the unforgiving environment dubbed “The Roof of the World”. There, Li-fang captured a life devoted to hope and faith and a people possessing a unique kind of tolerance, humility, and perseverance. This is a story of the Nuns of the Himalayas, of seeing one’s life through theirs, that is, a life lived in faith and with the spark of a summer eternal.

Both nightmare and dream, alike, coursing down my spine and recalling the red marks of burns residual to the casual escapade of a hot shower that imprints itself — I feel both the run-away vibrations and physicality of my pinkie toe. But when I woke up, I saw three pairs of eyes staring down at me as the fan did laps over my head. And didn’t it feel like something else entirely? And wouldn’t you know, I see it so clear.
