Bermiok Monastery (a.k.a. Bermiok Wosel Choling Monastery) is a Buddhist monastery in Sikkim, northeastern India. [1] The monastery belongs to the Karma Kagyu lineage.
History
The monastery was founded in 1873. As a result of damage caused by earthquakes, the monastery underwent renovation and reconstruction in the year 1954.[1]
Architecture
The premises of the monastery feature a manilhakang (lit. 'prayer wheel lhakhang'), constructed in 1954 and rebuilt in 1987. The manilhakang contains statues of Amitābha and the chagtong chentong (lit. '1000 arms, 1000 eyes') form of Avalokiteśvara.[2]
