The Buddhist ruins of Takht-i-Bahi, Pakistan.

As a young kid, I spent a few years living in Peshawar in Pakistan, near the Afghanistan border. I managed to find a few old family photos taken at Takht-i-Bahi from during this time, and thought that i’d share. 

Takht-i-Bahi (Throne of Origins) is the remains of a Buddhist monastic complex -the best preserved and most impressive of its kind in the country. It sits high upon a 152m hill, about 80km away from Peshawar, and covers an area of around 33ha. It is dated to approximately the 1st century BC, and was occupied successively until about the 7th century AD, when it fell into disuse and disrepair. Fortunately, due to the site’s location on the crest of a hill, Takht-i-Bahi escaped the invasions of the Huns (and the like), thus remains in relatively good condition.

The complex itself can be divided into 4 main groups. The first is the early monastic complex, which consists of an assembly hall, refectory, and an open court, surrounded by residential cells. Next is the so-called Court of Stupas (a stupa being a commemorative Buddhist monument usually containing sacred relics associated with the Buddha or saintly persons), which is adorned with a series of large niches to enshrine Buddhist statues. The temple complex contains similar niches, and has a main stupa in the middle of a courtyard. Finally, the tantric monastic complex has an open courtyard, which is next to a series of dark cells for meditation. On the basis of existing structures, it has been estimated that Takht-i-Bahi was once home to a monastic population of about 250-350 residents.

who cares lmfao!!!!

What did they tell him!!! What can we tell him to make him cry harder

OKAY, HOLD THE FUCK UP.

THIS IS WHAT THE MEDIA DOES TO POSTS AND SUCH.

YOU PEOPLE ARE LAUGHING AT THIS MAN. WHY. BECAUSE HE WAS BROUGHT TO TEARS? I’M SURE IF THIS MAN WAS GAY, YOU’D BE ALL OVER IT.

YOU’RE NOT GETTING THE WHOLE STORY.

THIS MAN ASKED HIS FOLLOWERS ON SOCIAL MEDIA A QUESTION WHEN HE SAW THAT HE HAD QUITE A LOT OF LGBT FOLLOWERS. HE SAID, “IF YOU COULD CHOOSE WHETHER TO BE GAY OR STRAIGHT, WHICH WOULD YOU CHOOSE?”

AND THE RESPONSES MOVED HIM. THEY FUCKING MOVED HIM. THAT’S WHY HIS CRYING. I’M SORRY, BUT IF YOU PEOPLE ARE GOING TO SHIT ON HIM WITHOUT GETTING THE WHOLE STORY, I CAN’T TALK TO YOU.

HIS QUOTES ARE LITERALLY:

“Sorry, guys… It’s just… It’s sad.”

“So, don’t take my word for any of this. Listen to them.”

“And if you think being Gay is a choice, and you want to hide behind the Bible, show me the verse where God says being gay is a choice.”

HERE IS THE ARTICLE

AND HERE IS THE VIDEO

I, AS A LESBIAN, AM FUCKING DISAPPOINTED IN YOU PEOPLE WHO ARE GIVING HIM SHIT.

IN THE VIDEO,

HE FUCKING SAYS “This video is about a kid who came out to his parents, and their… Their response was horrific.”

THIS MAN IS SOMEONE WHO CARES

AND THIS MAN IS SOMEONE YOU’RE HATING ON .

GET THE WHOLE FUCKING STORY BEFORE YOU DECIDE WHO YOU INSULT. AND, MOST OF ALL, JUST KEEP YOUR SHIT TO YOURSELF UNLESS YOU’RE 100% SURE YOU WANT TO SAY IT. 

/// rant over. 

Yeah, I’m getting real tired of this stupid straight hate that this website has going for it.  ”Equality!” “love all!”  but in reality it’s “except people we don’t deem as great as us”
