FAQs On Dubdi Monastery

Pelling, Sikkim, India
Introduction and History: Dubdi Monastery, also known as Yuksom Monastery, holds immense historical and spiritual significance as it is considered the first monastery established in Sikkim after the consecration of the first Chogyal (King) of Sikkim in 1642. Established in 1701 (though its foundatio n is linked to the 17th century), it is one of the oldest monasteries in the state, founded by Lama Lhatsun Chempo. The word 'Dubdi' literally translates to 'The Retreat,' which is fitting for its isolated location on a forested hilltop. Spiritual and Cultural Significance: The monastery is a two-storey stone structure that embodies the Nyingma sect of Tibetan Buddhism. It serves as a sacred pilgrimage site and a symbol of the history of the Namgyal dynasty. Its architecture and collection of religious artifacts provide a deep insight into the early Buddhist influence on the region. The approach to the monastery involves a 3-4 KMS uphill trek from Yuksom, making the visit a spiritual journey in itself, culminating in a peaceful, serene environment away from the village noise. It houses images of various divinities and saints.
