S02_EP17: Silkworm Mother Story from China

<p>In this special Lunar New Year 2026 episode of Ohh Folk, we journey to China to explore one of its lesser-known yet deeply meaningful legends, The Silkworm Mother and the White Horse. Set against the rich backdrop of Chinese history and folk tradition, this haunting tale weaves together love, promise, transformation, and the mysterious origins of silk, the textile pride of China. As we step into the Year of the Horse, this story takes on an even deeper resonance, connecting ancient heritage with zodiac symbolism. Join me for the Season 2 finale as we celebrate culture, memory, and the quiet power of stories that deserve to travel beyond borders.

S02_EP16: Demoness of Teligang Story from Bhutan

<p>High in the folds of the Himalayas, lives a mystique and beautiful little mountain kingdom where prayer flags flow effortlessly into blue mountain air, valleys hold centuries of belief, and stories travel faster by word of mouth rather than ink. In this episode of Ohh Folk, one such story begins to stir. From Bhutan’s rich folktale tradition emerges the legend of the Demoness of Teligang, a tale shaped by fear, faith, and the fragile line between protection and destruction. This is a story that asks you to listen slowly and to remember that even the most beautiful places carry shadows. Happy Listening!! 🙂</p><p>_____________________</p><p>Social Media: </p><p>FB: ⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/OhhFolk⁠⁠⁠ | </p><p>Insta: ⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/ohhfolk_podcast/⁠⁠ | </p><p>X: https://x.com/Ohhfolk_Podcast ||</p><p>_____________________</p><p><strong>Opening music: </strong>The Traditional Genre of Bhutanese Music | Bhutan Travel Advisor | Bhutan Rafting |Dochula Pass 360° (Channel: Truly Bhutan Travel) Licensed under Creative Commons (reuse allowed) Link: <a href="https://youtu.be/0UCLTNziTFM?si=OJWT2o-yv0pQd5Q4">https://youtu.be/0UCLTNziTFM?si=OJWT2o-yv0pQd5Q4</a></p><p><strong>Story source: </strong>Since no properly documented source of the story could be found, the story has been reconstructed based on several sources as listed below:</p><ul><li>​<a href="https://tashipenjore.blogspot.com/2024/01/nyala-duem-legend.html#:~:text=They%20fear%20there%20won%E2%80%99t%20be,rich%20folklores%20in%20the%20future">https://tashipenjore.blogspot.com/2024/01/nyala-duem-legend.html#:~:text=They%20fear%20there%20won%E2%80%99t%20be,rich%20folklores%20in%20the%20future</a></li><li>​<a href="https://bhutantourcompany.com/the-last-echoes-of-bhutanese-folklore/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CNyala%20Duem%21%20I%20hear%20you,continued%20his%20journey%20to%20Punakha">https://bhutantourcompany.com/the-last-echoes-of-bhutanese-folklore/#:~:text=%E2%80%9CNyala%20Duem%21%20I%20hear%20you,continued%20his%20journey%20to%20Punakha</a></li><li>​<a href="https://www.darkstories.org/post/the-story-of-garp-lungi-khorlo-wheel-of-the-wind-10387326#:~:text=This%20is%20my%20writing%20on,distances%20in%20a%20short%20time">https://www.darkstories.org/post/the-story-of-garp-lungi-khorlo-wheel-of-the-wind-10387326#:~:text=This%20is%20my%20writing%20on,distances%20in%20a%20short%20time</a></li><li>​Bhutan Broadcasting Service - <a href="https://www.bbs.bt/163813/#:~:text=As%20dusk%20settles%2C%20people%20would,the%20locals%20and%20travellers%20alike">https://www.bbs.bt/163813/#:~:text=As%20dusk%20settles%2C%20people%20would,the%20locals%20and%20travellers%20alike</a></li></ul><p><strong>Other sources:</strong></p><ul><li>​<a href="https://www.transbhutantrail.com/?fbclid=IwY2xjawOYYElleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFVUEVaaGpVekZCbGY2UUd0c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHq7B1R4CgGrRMmDeHiG9RtbhyRZnjsaWOqtICyFyWJo-t4ZiFyo_j6D9IAzn_aem_VcFyILX7WHIqJqkrd-WS3A">https://www.transbhutantrail.com/?fbclid=IwY2xjawOYYElleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFVUEVaaGpVekZCbGY2UUd0c3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHq7B1R4CgGrRMmDeHiG9RtbhyRZnjsaWOqtICyFyWJo-t4ZiFyo_j6D9IAzn_aem_VcFyILX7WHIqJqkrd-WS3A</a></li><li>​Tandin Dorji. 2002.

S02_EP15: Seven Suns Story from Mongolia

<p>In this episode of Ohh Folk!!, we journey to the vast, windswept steppes of Mongolia—land of extreme climatic conditions, stretches of desert and grassland, eternal blue skies, nomadic wisdom, and ancient epic traditions. As we explore the culture, climate, and folktale heritage of this rugged land, we uncover a powerful myth about a legendary archer, a sky ablaze with seven suns, and a choice that, according to the Mongolian myths, changed the world forever.
