Karma is the basis of Buddhist ethics and principles that maintain that the entire universe is bound to a similar law. Our actions will decide what will happen to us, for we caused it. The current state of our existence is with our past Karma, and the present action will determine our future condition of existence. Karma is a special instance of cause and effect, according to which all our actions of body, speech, and mind are causes and all our experiences are their effects. The Law of Karma explains why each individual has a unique mental disposition, a unique physical appearance, and unique experiences. These are the various effects of the countless actions that each individual has performed in the past. We cannot find any two people who have created the same history of actions throughout their past lives. So we cannot find two people with identical states of mind, identical experiences, and identical ...

Bhutan started to seriously alert the Covid pandemic after the WHO declared Coronavirus a worldwide pandemic in March 2020. Bhutan confirmed with the first case of Covid 19 on March 6, 2020, which led to complete lockdown, disrupting face-to-face learning in the schools. The schools around the country adopt the education in an Emergency curriculum (EIE) for the smooth function of the academic. Upon the prioritized-measured work out by the Ministry of Education, the schools classes ranking from pre-primary to eight were closed for a whole year. The pandemic has created significant disruption to student's learning. During these unprecedented times, the verbal mode of online teaching was adopted using WeChat, Messenger, WhatsApp, and telegram. The student's promotion to the next class was done with the help of continuous assessment that links with the online classes, assignments, the project works, and home works. This paper analyses and illustrates the learner's impacts of the promoted students of the year 2020 classes of one to eight. This paper aims to offer an inclusive study on the impact of online classes in a pandemic on classes one to eight students in Tsebar Lower Secondary School under Pemgatshel District Bhutan and specify the way forward for immediate intervention for the current low performers of the promoted students in classes one to eight in the school.

sacred spot of worship. It symbolizes the special presence of three bodies of Buddha
(Tib: Ku-sung-thug) considered the important religious monuments focused on daily
worship. The scriptural and structural portrayal of the Chorten is different from the initial
structural design in Buddha’s time, with the various structural designs symbolizing the
various virtues in vajrayāna tradition . The legendary eight chortens are incredibly built-
in Bhutan. It commemorates the eight different Buddha Shakyamuni’s life in eight
distinctive holy places like Lumbini, Bodhgaya, Varanasi, Shravasti, Shankasa, Rajgir,
Vaishali, and Kushinagar in Nepal and India, with slightly different structural designs
among them. Apart from the eight commemorative chortens of Buddha, different chorten
designs are seen on highways, the hilltop, the valley, river junctions, crossroads,
mountain passes, bridges, and considered inauspicious locations symbolizing each
differently in vajrayāna tradition in Bhutan.

The connection is much more central and is an essential mechanism for making great strides on the path. The masters who give the pith instructions are your root spiritual masters imbued with threefold kindness. Thus, no discourse or tantra relates a story of attaining enlightenment without that individual having relied upon a spiritual master. Therefore, whether our teachers present in person are ordinary beings or emanations of Buddhas or Bodhisattvas. We can pray to them, considering them as the Buddha. In that case, there is absolutely no difference between them and the Buddha or Bodhisattva yidam deity in person because the source of blessings is devotion. Therefore its essential practice in Vajrayāna tradition to uphold the proper relationship between disciples and root guru or lama.
