Read the following passage and answer the following carefully.

During traditional times, Ura was the south-easternmost of the districts of central Bhutan called Bum-thang sDe-bzhi Four Districts of Bumthang.' Within the district are found some of the oldest date-able Bhutanese monasteries such as Sombrang, connected to the Drigung Kagyudpa subsect of the Lhapa, constructed 1230 AD by the Smyos Lama named Demchog (1179-1265). Before its incorporation into the Zhabdrung Rinpoche's centralized Drukpa ecclesiastic state during the mid17th century, Ura was apparently ruled by a line of petty kings, known as the Ura Gyalpo, barely mentioned in Bhutanese histories and about whom little is remembered today. At other times in Ura's history it was ruled, or at least dominated by strongmen claiming Tibetan ancestry known as the Ura Dung. Remnants of those days are found in hillside castle ruins of Gdung Nag-po and in the traditional nomenclature of several homes in Ura that reflect their past functional relationship to the house that once served as the old royal residency, situated at the top of the hill. Today, Ura is located just south of the lateral road leading to Mongar and eastern Bhutan and is perhaps best known to tourists for its annual yak dance (Yag Shoed) festival. An ancient pathway leads westward through the center of the village of The pathway winds among the homes, connecting them to village fields to the south and west. As we passed by the home of the Ura gup (Ch. Rged po) the traditional headman of Ura, I was surprised to uiscover ourselves in the presence of a large, well preserved prayer wall (Ch. Ma ni thang). The wall is about 100 feet in length, 7 feet high. and divided into two unequal sections. In the gap between them is constructed a square chorten or stupa of typical Bhutanese style from earlier centuries. Both the walls and stupa are constructed of traditional piled, whitewashed cemented stone with slate roof. At shoulder height along the wall is a continuous stone lintel on which are inset a series of slate inscription panels, painted maroon. Typically, such slate inscriptions contain Sanskrit and Choekey (literary Tibetan) mantras, especially the six syllable mani prayer to Guru Rinpoche mani padme Indeed, the splendid Vra prayer wall contains many such panels in various states of preservation. The structure conveys the overall impression of a treasured historical monument that has been carefully maintained by generations of local citizens. Although brief, the inscription provides some tantalizing insights into the history ofUra and central Bhutan. Excerpts from' A 17th Century Stone Inscription from Ura Village' by John Ardussi
