Aventures de femmes / Women adventurers - Researcher at the CNRS, the French National Scientific Institute, Françoise Pommaret has lived for twenty years in one of the most mysterious countries on the planet, Bhutan. It is the last independent kingdom where Buddhism is the state religion. As such, and considering the events in Tibet, Bhutan is a highly protected country and difficult to enter. In 1979, Françoise was the first woman ethnologist to visit the country.
Françoise Pommaret is the only specialist on Bhutan. Now in her fifties, she has lived for ten years with her Japanese husband in Thimphu, the capital of the highly secretive little kingdom. At the time, she sets up the national library and trains the persons still working there today. For the past five years, Françoise goes at least four times per year to Bhutan, living in Aix-en-Provence the rest of the time. Bhutan is a country truly cut off from the world. Until 1988, letters were the only means of communication, the telephone didn't exist. The King waited until 1974 before opening the country to tourists, but limiting their number to 2,000 per year! At the heart of the Himalayas, in a country bristling with imposing fortresses straight out of the Middle Ages, Françoise Pommaret studies the magic rituals and esoteric ceremonies. But to really understand the Bhutanese culture, she also visits the people's homes. When she first arrived in the country, she was shepherded by a lama who gave her a Bhutanese surname, Tashion. It means "very lucky". That is what she is called throughout the country now. For several months per year, she lives under conditions of minimal comfort, in a religious seigneury run by lay people. It's a fascinating place because it's where religious rites, dances and ceremonies take place. Françoise Pommaret is totally dedicated today, personnally and professionally, to the Buddhist culture.
