One man’s mission to share with the world the fine art of cufflinks.
Each blog a different pair and each blog a different story. Read on in this series .....
As you know your scribe is as impartial as he can be and strives to "maintain the balance" wherever possible. I did mention in past dispatches the celebration of particular religious celebrations and I have managed to cover those that celebrate The Lord on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. But this is different and your scribe likes nothing better than a birthday to celebrate.
Thank you to those that have provided comments to this scribes literary efforts and as promised to one of my readers, your scribe today would like to pay homage and celebrate the recent birthday of His Holiness The Dalai Lama.
He is possibly the happiest man you will ever meet and possibly one of the great leaders of our time. He is the highest-ranking lama of Tibetan Buddhism. Since the 17th century, the Dalai Lama has been the political and spiritual leader of Tibet. He also is considered an emanation of the Bodhisattva Avolokitshvara, an iconic figure who represents boundless compassion. The current Dalai lama whose original name is Tenzin Gyatso, is the 14th reincarnation of the original Dalai Lama and Tibetan Buddhists traditionally believe him to be the reincarnation of his predecessors and a manifestation of the Bodhisattva of Compassion. Today is his birthday and on behalf of myself and this scribes many avid readers may we wish him all the best on his big day.
As an aside, one of the benefits of rasing children is the ability to impose on them your favourite movies, TV shows and music!!!!!! The other day, one of your scribes offspring that is at university said that he finally understood or "got it' as he said what the show Monkey Magic was about. He and a few of his friends stumbled upon the show and he remembered me making him watch it as a child. A wonderful show of magic, music and fantasy characters that was based on the travels, exploits and good deeds of Buddha. Much better than Telly Tubbies for mine!!!! All these years later he finally "gets it".....kids!!!!!!!!!!
Today's links are sterling silver cufflinks with a repousse Buddha image and I think are from the '70's. They are worn with a Valentino silk tie with Buddha motifs on a cotton tailor made shirt from Vietnam.
Happy Birthday Your Holiness we all love and admire your work.
