Two festivals at the Jokhang Temple in Lhasa, Tibet, have attracted a substantial police presence in addition to many Buddhist pilgrims, reports Radio Free Asia. The two-day Gaden Nga Choe festival celebrates the life of Je Tsongkhapa, the revered Buddhist teacher who died in 1419, while Shichoed marks the day Jamchen Choeje Yeshi died in 1443 – he was one of Tsonghkapa’s main disciples and founded Sera Monastery.
