I think the soccer ball is a variant of the Dharmachakra... though I could be wrong about that

You are probably right. It does kinda resemble the center of the wheel.
It sounds alot better than a soccer ball. I'm going to have to add it to the "never-ending-list-of-things-i-can't-keep-straight-or-track-of" that i need to talk to auntie about. ;) :D

Does Tirtha's beer mug actually represent something else or does Tirtha just enjoy his beer?

Got me on that one too..... It probably does. But "beer mug kami" kinda stuck with him. I sure hope "soccer ball kami" doesnt stick to Bal Bahadur.
Pardon me for a minute while i add this to the list also.

Whether they actually are soccer balls or beer mugs they are easier for us non-enlightened Americans to remember than "a variant of the Dharmachakra" or even something as simple as a madal drum.

I do like knowing what they represent; but soccer ball and beer mug get the point across.

I know the madal drum is not Tirtha's beer mug; I just used it as an example.

I talked to Auntie and asked her what Bal Bahadur's mark was....
She said she thought it was supposed to be a "Happy Face".
Further clarfication from the shop manager is needed.

Bura- Is still unable to work due to health problems. May Return
Murali- Left to take care of Family and Farm. May Return.
 
Years ago, outsiders hotly debated the ingredients in laha. The tree sap story had really gotten hold. Folks love these tales. Some researchers from Katmandu Poly Tech. traveled to Bir Gorkha to do some tests. Kami Sherpa immediately identified them as spies from Casa de Khukuri and pinned them into a corner. Bura, the old master, was just finishing up the original Dui Chirra Americana, a 53” 11.5 pound masterpiece. Bura decided the perfect way to quench or “christen” his work would be to plunge the still white hot blade into the belly of a rather plump researcher. About the time the Kamis were just about singeing the belly hair of said researcher, Uncle Bill and Auntie Yangdu returned from their weekend yacht trip on Lake ‘o’ the Neems. And not a second too soon! The defused the situation and convinced Kami Sherpa to allow the scientists to finish what they came for.

Well, the folks from Poly Tech. “discovered” what most of us had known all along: laha is nothing more than a simple mixture of common, everyday, unicorn snot, elf blood, and yeti boogers. Nothing more, nothing less. This old ”tree sap” legend has been the source of much consternation. One day, according to the union stewart of Kami local #211, one of the elves stripped down to his boxer shorts, ran out of the Bir Gorkha cafeteria, and demanded an apology from every tree in the company courtyard. Later on, we learned that Tirtha had replaced the elves’ juice with Shiner Bock, and we all know what happens when elves drink dark beer! That’s also how Tirtha got the “Beer Mug” nick name, and a lesson for another day.

Hopefully, that answers any questions and makes you feel better about the laha around the bolster.
