Just another rainy day in Seoul… but look at this view

Crown Jewel of India, Zanskar, Ladakh

Far away from the noise of the world, I found genuine smiles, simple lives, and a peace that’s hard to put into words.
📍 Phugtal Monestary, Zanskar, Ladakh, India 🇮🇳

Nature doesn’t compete for attention. It simply leaves you speechless.

Phugtal Gompa, Lugnak Valley, Zanskar Ladakh, India

#phugtal #zanskar #ladakh #buddhism #indiatravel

Hidden deep in the cliffs of Zanskar, Ladakh, this is Phugtal Monastery.

Over 2,000 years old, built around a cave. There was a time when no roads existed here at all, people walked for days through these dangerous mountains just to reach it. Every single stone you see was carried up and carved by hand.

Today a road reaches halfway, but the rest of the journey is still on foot, and maybe that’s the beauty of it. Some places make you earn the view.

For centuries, Buddhist monks have lived here in the same silence, far from the noise of the world. Phugtal doesn’t just look beautiful, it makes you feel something.

Peace looks different in the Himalayas

The road behind me tells my story.
The road ahead writes my future.
And somewhere between the two, I found peace beneath the mighty Gonbo Rangjon.

#gonborangjon #zanskar #ladakh #iitian #traveling

Gonbo Rangjon (also known as Gumbok Rangan) is a majestic, standalone mountain peak in the Lungnak Valley of Zanskar, Ladakh, India. Towering at 5,520 meters (18,110 feet), it is revered by locals as “God’s Mountain” and is considered a highly sacred throne of the Buddhist deity Mahakala.

The boy who came here with dreams…
leaves with a doctorate.
कुछ सपने यहाँ पूरे हुए…
कुछ लोग यहीं छूट गए…
लेकिन यह जगह हमेशा साथ रहेगी।
अलविदा IIT Guwahati ❤️

From Mr. Bharat to Dr. Bharat…
Today marks one of the most meaningful milestones of my life. I successfully defended my PhD and earned the privilege of adding “Dr.” to my name. This is not just a title, but the outcome of years of persistence, discipline, setbacks, and continuous learning.

I completed a Joint PhD in Chemical Engineering from IIT Guwahati and Curtin University. This journey gave me the opportunity to conduct research at one of India’s premier institutions as well as a globally respected international university. The experience has shaped not only my academic understanding but also my perspective toward research and life.

Beyond academics, this achievement carries deep emotional value. The greatest inspiration behind this journey has been my late maternal grandfather. He is no longer with us, but I know he would have been proud today. If he were here, this moment would have meant even more.

I am deeply grateful to my maternal grandmother, my parents, my teachers, and my PhD supervisors. Their guidance, belief, and constant support have been the foundation of everything I have achieved.

Growing up, I was surrounded by inspiring paths, joining the defense services like my maternal grandfather, becoming a doctor like my mossi, or becoming scientist, which always intrigued me. While not every path was taken, the curiosity for science stayed with me, and today it has led me here.

Coming from Kalpa in Kinnaur, a Himalayan region, and reaching institutions and opportunities across India and abroad has been a humbling journey. It has taught me a simple truth: consistent effort, no matter how slow, always leads you forward.

This achievement belongs to everyone who believed in me.
