With the collaboration of “AAROH” and “Windhorse Rising” we are helping to rebuild a school in Dhading, for 110 children in the far outskirts. We are involved in a project named “Sunaulo Bhawishya” which means crafting golden future for children.
Let’s meet our team, Tokpa and Andrea of Windhorse Rising!

As a full-time world traveler, Tokpa has spent the past five years in the epicenter of the Buddhist world, documenting the activity and culture of some of the world’s most prominent teachers. His work has been featured in magazines and books all over the world, his short films which feature his own music brings his unique blend of Eastern art and stylishly intense western edge has created a buzz with his ever-growing social media presence.
Tokpa Korlo has created a unique style of photography that is possible to experience with your heart and thanks to his honesty his work has gained worldwide attention. Tokpa’s work is a labor of love—it means the world to him and he has dedicated his life to this ideal.
