I'm pretty sure Buddhist wisdom-or Stoic wisdom, for that matter-wasn't designed to help us become better at tolerating soul-crushing work environments.

As tears fill my eyes, I'm trying to type in a futile attempt to convey just how powerful and meaningful this film is. It speaks to the part of me that knows beyond all doubt that Ani-la's life is more meaningful than mine will ever be. She's a wandering yogini... wiser and more highly realised than many of us know. What a precious gem she is, and this film. Thank you! 🙏
Don't bring yourself down, the power to realize the truth is within yourself, wherever you are and whatever you are doing. you are the only one who is holding yourself down.
It's powerful how we often look outside ourselves for answers, not realizing the true journey is inward. This quote resonates deeply because it highlights the internal struggles we may not fully acknowledge until we take a step back. Do you think we are more likely to find peace when we confront these inner battles, or is it a process of learning to coexist with them?
Some years ago I made a journey toward Mt Kailas, on foot from Simikot in Nepal, along the narrow trail on the north side of the gorge which carries the great Karnali torrent. The days were very uncomfortable for me due to the heat and altitude, but more so for my local guide, who suffered alcoholic anguish after a few days on the trail. At the height of the afternoon he worked the beads of his mala and desperately chanted a mantra. At first I thought he was pathetic, but then I noticed that my way of dealing with the discomfort was to mentally direct scorn at certain world leaders, at people who I felt had wronged me....etc...so I took out my mala, and holding one bead at a time between thumb and index finger, placed my attention on a person, and while voicing the mantra 'om a hum vajra guru, padma sidhi hum', sent the silent message "may the spirit which resides within you, attain enlightenment". My discomfort disappeared, as though this activity took up all of my available attention. So next day, I continued with it as I hiked, in a methodical way covering each individual of my family, rippling out to work colleagues, acquaintances, the world leaders I had previously cursed, wild creatures I have encountered....... At a certain moment, the roar of the Karnali no longer dominated my senses. It was still there, but distant so to speak, as the centre of my attention shifted to another place, where the timeless silence of the world resonates....."the silence beyond thoughts" I hope this story helps someone.
I am of the Hopi people here in America, I am most amazed by how our peoples connect to the earth in our own ways to serve the same purpose. I set out on a daily to heal the hearts of others. I use the teachings of the Dao as well to bring people to the path of becoming the light.
Alone but free. In company but tied strange reality. The trouble is in society if u are everything u now do is tracked where u went what u said. Who u contacted.
@@earlysda she doesn't need someone to blame for her sins. Whether monk or Christianity enlightened beings don't need someone to blame. She is in her own way. She's more free than some monks. What could Christ give her that she does not. She has met enlightened beings. She has choice to cave, the temple. the nuns or to walk. She knows the masters of cold and meditation and also fasting. All mentioned in the bible. Can you say as a believer in christ that you have done the same ? Buddhism doesn't need to push its ego into others. You see it when you need to. Many people that believe in Jesus could still benefit from the budist doctrines. Personally look into both and whatever you connect with is most likely the best for you.
@@herenowlifeJoe, you wrote: "What could Christ give her that she does not. " You do know that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, he spoke this world into existence in 6 days, he became a human and died on the cross as the only way to cleanse us from our sins, and he is the one that is going to judge us on the great and awesome day to determine whether we will live forever with him in glory, or be burned up body and soul in the Lake of Fire, Don't you?
@@earlysda enlighten beings don't judge. Karma may judge your subconscious may. However am unsure about death. Have listened to people's theory's on before life and the soul leaving the body. That turning to a being of light maybe the escape from rebirth. Even Jesus gets reborn ? Jesus seems more of a escape goat for people that need someone to follow to escape there trap. He's a sacrifice which really as people we should be evolved and aware enough not to need to do any more. However we seem to be getting no more enlightened as a species so we probably will need to blame someone else for our sins. Namely ourselves in the name of ego.
"Abandon all efforts. Find the silence beyond thoughts. Then simply remain." The highest teaching of all spiritual paths. Can't add or subtract a word from it.
Silence does not make one spiritual it makes one cease, ceasing is not living, it’s escapism. The object of life is not to seek to exists apart from things at all. This leads to nihilism. It is how we love others. The first commandment is to love the most high God with all your heart and all your being/ doing and the second is to love your neighbour as yourself. Love in Hebrew is a verb it is caring kindness in action
It is not silence that makes one cease but a silence, a letting off into the depths of our being, that gets filled with light after. And such light brings forth a flood of love as all the great Saints and spiritual masters of India have displayed.
Well, it's even better if you subtract the qualifiers "all, the, then". "Abandon efforts" implies some sort of active doing - you're applying effort to try not to be making effort - not the most fruitful sort of practice. It's like fighting for peace.
@@ovishvesh you must be born again is what Yeshua said, the heart of mankind is full of wickedness we have no inner light of our own, the evidence of the last few thousand years of mankind proves this. One must accept the offer of grace through the most high God which is made evident in His Son. Yeshua Jesus is the true light any other light is a deception.
@@JacquelineHahn1yes love is living. But that doesn’t contradict with practice being silence and having the strength and power to not giving effort for things and people you are so attached to. Attach is never love, loving people doesn’t mean you need to get so close to them, especially way too many human beings are having all kind of their own issues, they need to learn their own issues, and you should know how to choose to love them. Loving people and things lots of times means you love them in your intentions and your energy, but not necessarily in physical. You don’t need other people’s issues affecting your energy. When other in need for help, go help. Love means giving, caring and firm with the boundaries. That goes right back to master the silence and give up the ego need of “ effort”.
“When you reach the place beyond thoughts, the only thing you’ll find is love and the only purpose of life becomes to ease the suffering of others.” WOW!! Just wow!!
@@robinking3774 You leave first, rent free, longest tourist since 1959, and I'll come back to Tibet: pure and faithful already but not "motherland"... Peace is the way forward, and I'll patiently wait you to understand, realize and implement this. I'm not in hurry.
Being Tibetan myself born and raised in India. Well I'm a Bon ( Tibetan Oldest Religion) followers , Its really amazing to see such tTibetan Buddhism practices in my home country Tibet, Indeed Thank you SLICE team for sharing. Peace ;)
I started to wonder that myself, especially upon hearing others tell her or ask her "what are you running from, stay in one place". I don't see the point in telling all people to all do the same thing. Some people need to stay in place, some people need to wander, both are necessary in this world. I'm glad Ani "stuck to her guns".
Did you notice Jetsun Milarepa was walking bare feet on snow? And then he took a shower under a waterfall. How they make their bodies go beyond pain by harnessing the inner shakti is beyond ordinary intelligence. This is beyond science, beyond ordinary mind, beyond the infinite universe and yet so true and achievable. I think these Tibetan yogins will defeat the Chinese who are trying to destroy their Buddhist traditions. The power of the devoted human mind is bigger than the entire universe! Om mani padme hum!
They are not trying to destroy Buddhism. Many monasteries have been restored and are funded by rich Chinese practitioners in mainland China. Things have moved on from the cultural revolution. Of course, the government will clamp down on any politics of separatism but in terms of practicing Buddha dharma, there are few obstacles. Some Tibetans in India have even gone back. Especially those from east Tibet who politically were more independent from the Dalai Lama’s seat in Lhasa to begin with.
There are divers who decide not to use SCUBA gear. They teach themselves how to hold their breath for VERY long time periods. They teach their bodies how to develop those skills and endure that. They and the people who walk on snow and shower under waterfalls, they are evolving faster and stronger than other human beings, teaching their bodies to do incredible things using their sheer will. All the respect in the world!
Thanks for this beautiful documentary. May Annie fulfill her dreams as a Dakini reaching the rainbow body. May these amazing Tibetan women be well, safe, free from suffering and reach total Bliss. 🙏🙌🥰
This has been on my list to watch for years. I have finally watched it and sobbed numerous times. One of my last visits to Tibet, I fortunately was able to walk along the banks of Yihunla Tso. A very honest depiction of Tibet, without the glamorization or idealization of a very very difficult life. I have befriended countless nuns and each and every story has always been inspiring. Hamid Sardar, you are also quite an inspiration to a fellow photographer devoted to the lives of Tibetans.
"Abandon all efforts. Find the silence beyond thoughts. Then simply remain." Most beautiful documentary I've seen in years! A real gem. Thank you! May all beings be happy and free.
@@earlysda What makes you say that? The Messiah was a Messenger of God but not God. And I have read the Bible, all of it, in no place is it written that Jesus the Messiah is the only source of freedom.
@@earlysda 2 Peter 2:18 For they speak bombastic nonsense, and with debased[l] desires of the flesh they entice people who have just[m] escaped from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, for people are slaves to whatever masters them.
What a brave woman to follow her heart like this even when everyone is telling her to quit and go back to her convent. My heart goes out to the Tibetan people struggling to keep their identity as a people and their immense spiritual treasure alive in a hostile world.
A lot of the head monks are secretive due to the CCP and Westerners. While they monk telling her to give up her search and go back to where she came from was very harsh, it’s because she brought a westerner (the videographer) with her. Outsiders and Westerners learning about the secret teachings is how Tibet ended the way it is. During the days of Emperor Ashoka of Maurya, the secret teachings were not secret, but the Muslims centuries later would slaughter all the Buddhists in India causing the teachings the vanish there but survive in Tibet. The Jesuit and Knights Templars were also probing Tibet, some trying to establish the Christian Ity that is Rome, others trying to steal and occult the teachings. An example of this is the Krishna Consciousness in the Bhagavad Gita being rebranded by the Christian as the Christ Consciousness. This caused Tibetans to start rejecting outsiders. Things got bad during the British Raj period. Tibetans started making secret their teachings, as the British were raiding and sacking temples and stealing artifacts and texts now shown in London. Only the Nazis were welcomed in Tibet, as they came in good Consciousness seeking to learn not to take- quiet the contradiction to what we’ve been told about them. What they learned there was learned by the Allies following WWII and the United States, British, and Soviets started probing Tibet and seeking access to the secret teachings and the location of Shambhala. This caused the Tibetans to completely seal themselves off. Then the Chinese came and forced it out of them, killing 1 million, destroying 9,000+ temples, stealing 18,000 scrolls and countless artifacts, and slaughtering entire Vajrayana Lineages into extinction. The west did nothing and stood by in hopes that the CCP would share with them willingly knowledge that the Tibetans would not, only to have the CCP give them the finger. Those you see in the video are those who survived. So when they see this wanderer with a westerner taking about how she wants to know about secret teachings, she is seen as a threat to what little existence they have left. This is especially since the CCP keeps physical and digital control over the region.
@@NarasimhaDiyasena Yes, that is an interesting insight, I had not thought of that. So much light is bound to attract much darkness, even a vicious push back like Chinese communism. There was so much light in the native american way of life and world view and look what a vicious push back overtook them and almost destroyed that. I once saw some footage that had been smuggled out of Tibet and the faces of the tibetans held the exact same look of stunned bewilderment, that could be seen in the faces of native americans soon after they had been through their own version of the holocaust.
@@NarasimhaDiyasena There are no secrets to the Buddhas teachings, its extremely down to earth. There's no magical techniques, transmissions or occult knowledge. Its accessible to pretty much everyone with internet access. All this talk of "secret" methods is mostly tradition and ceremony. The teachings are fine, accessible to everyone and no special Tibetan teachers are needed. "Advanced" practices tend not to be talked about, not because of some exclusive secrecy, but because they are irrelevant to novices and tend to end up confusing the practitioner. High level practice tends to be outside of concept and intellect anyways so there's not too much to say about it in the first place. Buddhism tends to rise and fall, there are rulers and cultures that support it and build it up and rulers and cultures that condemn and destroy it.
@@carolinebarnes6832 Wtf are you on about "smuggled"? Bruh all you have to do is get a visa to go there and vice versa. Exocticsm and brainwashing at its finest here. Also, sadly not al Tibetian wants to be primitive yak herders that you so idolize. Some would rather get central heating and work a cushy office job.
As a U.K. Buddhist I thank you for showing the wonder of Tibet and the traditional practices. May I reach Tibet one day and bask in its spiritual glory 🙏🏽😊☸️🕉☸️🕉
Do yourself a favour and go to Bhutan instead. It is sad that the CCP has destroyed Tibetan culture and are now rebuilding Mickey Mouse Buddhist temples and Buddhist sites. The Dalai Lama is long gone from Tibet yet Bhutan is still a true Buddhist nation. Bhutan is almost identical to Tibet post CCP invasion..
@@vietnguyen4312 We've been fed this narrative that the "CCP" has been destroying Tibet and it's culture since 1950, yet it seems that Tibetan culture and language is alive and well. Tibetans are still speaking their language and practicing Buddhism, which by the way many Han Chinese also practice.
I wish Tibet would forever remain untouched, isolated, protected from any external force or influence. I wish its teachings, its beautiful culture and religion would reach us only by the winds teavelling above its mountains. That way, we would be touched by the beauty of Tibet without ever spoiling it with our dirty feet, dirty hands and dirty minds.

@@kingniehwong7417 Please revisit your history textbook. British expedition to Tibet, viz. Younghusband expedition, began in December 1903 and lasted until September 1904. The expedition was effectively a temporary invasion by British Indian Armed Forces under the auspices of the Tibet Frontier Commission, whose purported mission was to establish diplomatic relations and resolve the dispute over the border between Tibet and Sikkim.
I am from Germany and practicing the Buddha-Dharma since only about 3 years. I started studying Buddhism at te Tibetan Center in Hamburg 3 month ago. I am really grateful for your documentary. Om Ah Ra Pa Tsa Na Dhi!
Ani is incredibly courageous. To tell us the Tibetan ancient scriptures, MUST be learned in Chinese, is mind boggling. Since I was born in 1953, I had dreams about Tibet very young. The Mad Saint is someone that is truly enlightened and supports Ani's Quests. Excellent documentary in every way. I Hope You make more for the outside world! Namaste
What an inspiring documentary, thank you! How wonderful of Ani to follow her inner wisdom and become the Wondering Nun. Some of us connect to our spirituality through movement, receiving information that way. Feeling the wind through our hair on top of a mountain, by walking through hidden valleys, by meeting people on our journeys, by receiving food from strangers. Ani's brave and I'd love to think that her childlike curiosity plays a big role in her becoming a Loving Light.
It is incredible how the tragedy of Tibet contributed to the spread of Tibetan culture and knowledge about the organization and peace of mind around the globe. Nowdays there is no more global, deep and extensive knowledge of the mind than Tibetan Buddhism. It is accessible to everyone, non-religious, translated into all languages of the world. Live teachers, live transmission line. The 14th Dalai Lama is still alive. We, those who are interested in how the mind works, strive for the good, still have a good chance) All the best, thanks for the film!
Here in the west, I think we think about things too black and white. Calling Buddhism a religion makes us think of it in a certain way, that it is not compatible with our Christian based societies. But I think there is a lot to be learned from Buddhism and I hope more people can embrace it as a way of living instead.
Buddhism is not a religion true. 8 noble truths. Wheel of mya . Purify yourself then follow your heart. Male Leaders have egos females not so much. Imo men are controlling because they fear a female knowing their weaknesses. Pure couples talk it out eye to eye SOUL to soul. This is the paradigm shift. Men let her go if she chooses she may return. Trust in her. No jealousy. Lust or other lower chakra bs ❤🧡💛💚💙💜🙂😀☺️🧘♂️🧘🏻♀️☯️🙏👌👏🤝
Thank You Sooooo much for this most amazing and inspiring documentary. I am a Tibetan Buddhist practitioner in the US and I am aspiring to accomplish the very same aspiration as the Nuns of Gebchak. Seeing Yoginis and Yogis in Tibet in the holy and powerful places striving on the path is sooooooo powerfully inspiring for me. May all aspirants on the sublime path accomplish the path swiftly and smoothly.
my favourite 49:35 when you reached the place beyond thoughts, the only thing you'll find is love, and the only purpose of life becomes to ease the suffering of others.
Thus is what Jesus Christ said. Love ur neighbor as yourself and do unto others what u would have them do to u. U can find it throughout d Holy Bible ..
What an extraordinary documentary! The cinematography is breathtaking; I literally have dreams like this. The many Buddhists who prostrate incredibly gruelling distances have a faith most of us can only aspire to. I can't say enough about Tibet, the path to Wisdom. It's an award winner in my books.
This woman shows dedication to the faith of Buddhism . Her journey into the lost spiritual traditions of Tibetan Buddhism is a virtue that most could not complete. May she one day find what she is looking for in this world or the next. Om Mani Padme Hum. Namaste.
The hermit Lama Dorgel, the "mad saint", speaks a great deal of wisdom within a couple of minutes and embarks on a travel by prostrating all the way to Lhassa, the heart of the Demoness. It's sheer wonder, indeed! What a stunning episode!
As a Tibetan , Thank you so much for showing our country , our culture and our people. One day Tibet will be free , and I always pray Dalai Lama can be returned to His Country . His holiness lost his own country and everything but still currently most peacefull person living on this planet. Long Live Dalai Lama and Free Tibet. We are so grateful for this Documentary!
From the heat of arid South Africa in a scortching summer, I had the privilege to be transported to Tibet by you sharing this film. Can you image what a change it would bring to African society if some women here decided to earnestly seek the Glory Realm and the Creator of all Light, rather than just having children like everyone else? Im deeply touched and grateful for your effort.
It has been my dream to be able to travel to tibet. I'm so fascinated by their great culture and traditions. I heard the mantra "Om Mani padme hum" in dharamshala once and it was so soothing for me that all my worries disappeared. Since then, I've been doing my research on Buddhism and tibetan traditions in particular. May lord help all the people of Tibet.
Thank you so much SLICE Team for sharing this beautiful documentary. Being a Tibetan born and raised in India got to see our Beautiful Land with beautiful people through this film❤ Tashi Delek Free Tibet
Thank you thank you… I have shared this to my father. I have lived all my childhood listening these kind of stories from him and I am emotional… his teacher and grandfather has lived these yogic life and my father is a living example….
The only country in the world which has devoted all its genius to the inner exploration is Tibet. Its findings are of tremendous value. Om mani padme hum is one of the most beautiful expressions for the ultimate experience. Its meaning is "the sound of silence, the diamond in the lotus."
16:10 The happiness of one person depends on the happiness of all. This is how an awakened being sees the world...I fear that most of us are still in a deep sleep.
I’ve no words for the whole team of SLICE. Speechless & heartily thank you so so much for all the knowledge you’ve share. Tibet my motherland 😢 suffering by the red blood now ✌🏻
As a Hindu, I could relate many things with the monastic teachings of our Buddhist sister with our Sannyasa ashram, I hope she stays composed and have the perseverance to inspire many in this path, something worthwhile done for your own culture should be a must in this era of globalization by every person. Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya namah, Om Mani Padme hum.
Amazing documentary. Beautiful people of Tibet with their unwavering dedication to evolving human race are benefiting the world with their positive energy. Thank you so much.
The physical strength and stamina it takes to survive such a harsh environment is achievement in itself. To spiritually and mentally survive in our turbulent world is nothing short of miraculous.
PURE？ The women there work their asses off day and night to feed the men and most of their money goes to the monks' pocket, there are more darkness we can't see on a barren land.
@@earlysda Too late, Jesus traveled to Tibet, and India, during his earthly life. But now, his "followers" spread satanic doctrines like Original Sin, as if God would curse a child with eternal damnation for the sin of another committed thousands of years ago. What loving parent would do that to their child? You are obviously following a false teaching.
I believe Ani would have much to discuss with the Aboriginal people of Australia who believe in the 'songlines' which were traversed during the creation of their lands. They would understand her desire to walk as a way of recreating her Tibetan heritage.
Que herança? Em que mundo você vive? Um mundo cheio de ódio, de terroristas, mortes sangrentas. É essa herança? Sinceramente. E mais, o mérito não é deles, é de Budha, eles apenas o ouviram.

She is following walking from place to place as our teacher JESUS CHRIST EMMANUEL as per my perception for her it's all about seeking knowledge to maintain being at peace with what is created for our goodness by the CREATOR and to be grateful and enjoy receiving and giving the fruit of the spirit which is loving receiving and giving PEACE to all creation.
@@silviafreitas7278 we are all in this land of the living to leave an inheritance by choosing to contribute accepting there is suffient for all. Greed is not an act that encourages peace, it is restless and create schemes to hinder our inheritance which is PEACE humans individually and willingly chose to receive the training of greed, those who like to give greed a chair and listen to its schemes get lost in it. They trust not the teachings and guidance of the one who protected them in her womb, breastfeed them, the one who hold their hand to taught them how to walk and speak and taught them how to protect their peace. Humans have chosen their own confusion.
This really is a very well made documentary with many profound messages. Heartfelt gratitude to the makers of this film for going through all the hardships, and being absolutely invisible. A true practice of selfless offering to the world. THANK YOU!
Beautiful mystical landscapes and people; especially this Ani in her sincere and restless quest for understanding and peace. God bless these people and traditions.

This title is really proved, tibbat is path of wisdom....... This documentary gave me the answer, taught me many things, show me the path of spiritual,y life will totally changed after seen this.
WoW amazing each teachers taught her. “Understanding the nature of mind” and understanding the nature of interdependence is absolutely is the part to attaining clear light. His Holiness the Dalai Lama constantly teach us those. Indeed the real treasure of life is still alive in Tibet. Thank you for showing this wonderful documentary. May Avalokeshvarar bless you all🙏🏽💐
I had the absolute privilege of going to Tibet in 2017. I took a 22 hour train from Qinghai to Lhasa, and I would SEE these pilgrims beaded toward the capital. I saw them pray and prostate (fully bowing all the way on the floor) often every few steps. In Tibet, I was stunned by how heavy the air was with spirituality. A local ran across the street to fix a friend’s scarf that had fallen… and to think that they have been persecuted by the CCP for so many decades breaks my heart. I truly hope Tibet can be allowed to preserve their precious way of life.
I feel very fortunate to witness this beautiful journey of ani . I have heard how people go beyond their boundary to find their guru and how they work hard for it but seeing ani, shows us how much dedication and faith we need. Thank you for making this beautiful documentary. May Buddha bless all sentient being.

What a beautiful and poignant production. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this documentary. It inspired me and comforted me while learning more about Tibet and Buddhism. I am more eager now to visit Tibet and walk among the holy people who devote their lives to ease the suffering of everyone living in this evil world we inhabit.

I am thankful to you for making this beautiful Documentary by covering her journey . There is a deeper meanings to our existence, but unfortunately getting caught in the negative side of the whirlpool of advancement. May there be peace all around. 🙏
A journey alone with a full camera crew, yep, everyone believes the gods filmed her. Not different to man in the wild, with shots only a cameraman can take...Tibet is beautiful and sure there are also beautiful people there and some non so beautiful people, just like everywhere in the world.
I would give anything to go to Tibet. Sadly I cannot afford to. I love to watch such videos. This one was excellent. Thank you such a humble way to live . peace be with you all.
This is an incredible documentary and I am so glad it has recently been shared over the RUclips family. I had no idea that when the Dali llama left there was a Panché llama that stayed in order to preserve the Tibetan and culture and convinced The Chinese government to provide a place where Tibetans could learn about their culture and continue studying Buddhism. This is a revelation. The Chinese almost did better for their indigenous culture than we Americans have done for ours

Such a documentary full of bliss! It really blows my breath away, it touch deeply the heart, it is kind of magic..🌠😯...so powerful!!❤
Free Tibet and let Tibetans live freely .. thank you posting this powerful video.
Tibet is already free. Free from slavery, poverty, illiteracy, serfdom, and stupidity.
Free Tibet!

I like this quote
"I've chased dreams and fled from demons without realising they have been inside of me this whole time"
True
I like that qoute thanks for sharing
It's powerful how we often look outside ourselves for answers, not realizing the true journey is inward. This quote resonates deeply because it highlights the internal struggles we may not fully acknowledge until we take a step back. Do you think we are more likely to find peace when we confront these inner battles, or is it a process of learning to coexist with them?
This isn’t just a documentary. It is a benediction. Truly inspiring and moving. A magisterial piece of work.
'A Benediction'..., indeed! 💐💐🙏🙏💐💐🌾
Beautiful sentiment
Well said ❤
Some years ago I made a journey toward Mt Kailas, on foot from Simikot in Nepal, along the narrow trail on the north side of the gorge which carries the great Karnali torrent. The days were very uncomfortable for me due to the heat and altitude, but more so for my local guide, who suffered alcoholic anguish after a few days on the trail. At the height of the afternoon he worked the beads of his mala and desperately chanted a mantra. At first I thought he was pathetic, but then I noticed that my way of dealing with the discomfort was to mentally direct scorn at certain world leaders, at people who I felt had wronged me....etc...so I took out my mala, and holding one bead at a time between thumb and index finger, placed my attention on a person, and while voicing the mantra 'om a hum vajra guru, padma sidhi hum', sent the silent message "may the spirit which resides within you, attain enlightenment". My discomfort disappeared, as though this activity took up all of my available attention.
So next day, I continued with it as I hiked, in a methodical way covering each individual of my family, rippling out to work colleagues, acquaintances, the world leaders I had previously cursed, wild creatures I have encountered.......
At a certain moment, the roar of the Karnali no longer dominated my senses. It was still there, but distant so to speak, as the centre of my attention shifted to another place, where the timeless silence of the world resonates....."the silence beyond thoughts"
I hope this story helps someone.
thank you
Thank you for sharing your experience. 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing. 🙏🙏🙏Om ma ne pa me hom 😊😊😊
Beautiful story! 👍
Certainly does.. sets on thinking.. and that ia enough
I am of the Hopi people here in America, I am most amazed by how our peoples connect to the earth in our own ways to serve the same purpose. I set out on a daily to heal the hearts of others. I use the teachings of the Dao as well to bring people to the path of becoming the light.

when I saw the nuns in their tents practicing their secret yoga, the pureness of their acts I burst out in tears. So much beauty, such simplicity!
I have to say...the purity and beauty of this woman simply melt my heart. Wish you the best Ani, wherever you are, free spirit!
Alone but free. In company but tied strange reality. The trouble is in society if u are everything u now do is tracked where u went what u said. Who u contacted.
Let's pray she finds the Way, the Truth, and the Life - Jesus Chrst.
@@earlysda she doesn't need someone to blame for her sins. Whether monk or Christianity enlightened beings don't need someone to blame. She is in her own way. She's more free than some monks. What could Christ give her that she does not. She has met enlightened beings. She has choice to cave, the temple. the nuns or to walk. She knows the masters of cold and meditation and also fasting. All mentioned in the bible.
Can you say as a believer in christ that you have done the same ? Buddhism doesn't need to push its ego into others. You see it when you need to. Many people that believe in Jesus could still benefit from the budist doctrines. Personally look into both and whatever you connect with is most likely the best for you.
@@herenowlifeJoe, you wrote: "What could Christ give her that she does not. " You do know that Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, he spoke this world into existence in 6 days, he became a human and died on the cross as the only way to cleanse us from our sins, and he is the one that is going to judge us on the great and awesome day to determine whether we will live forever with him in glory, or be burned up body and soul in the Lake of Fire,
Don't you?
@@earlysda enlighten beings don't judge. Karma may judge your subconscious may. However am unsure about death. Have listened to people's theory's on before life and the soul leaving the body. That turning to a being of light maybe the escape from rebirth. Even Jesus gets reborn ? Jesus seems more of a escape goat for people that need someone to follow to escape there trap. He's a sacrifice which really as people we should be evolved and aware enough not to need to do any more. However we seem to be getting no more enlightened as a species so we probably will need to blame someone else for our sins. Namely ourselves in the name of ego.
"Abandon all efforts. Find the silence beyond thoughts. Then simply remain." The highest teaching of all spiritual paths. Can't add or subtract a word from it.
Silence does not make one spiritual it makes one cease, ceasing is not living, it’s escapism. The object of life is not to seek to exists apart from things at all. This leads to nihilism. It is how we love others. The first commandment is to love the most high God with all your heart and all your being/ doing and the second is to love your neighbour as yourself. Love in Hebrew is a verb it is caring kindness in action
It is not silence that makes one cease but a silence, a letting off into the depths of our being, that gets filled with light after. And such light brings forth a flood of love as all the great Saints and spiritual masters of India have displayed.
Well, it's even better if you subtract the qualifiers "all, the, then". "Abandon efforts" implies some sort of active doing - you're applying effort to try not to be making effort - not the most fruitful sort of practice. It's like fighting for peace.
@@ovishvesh you must be born again is what Yeshua said, the heart of mankind is full of wickedness we have no inner light of our own, the evidence of the last few thousand years of mankind proves this. One must accept the offer of grace through the most high God which is made evident in His Son. Yeshua Jesus is the true light any other light is a deception.
@@JacquelineHahn1yes love is living. But that doesn’t contradict with practice being silence and having the strength and power to not giving effort for things and people you are so attached to. Attach is never love, loving people doesn’t mean you need to get so close to them, especially way too many human beings are having all kind of their own issues, they need to learn their own issues, and you should know how to choose to love them. Loving people and things lots of times means you love them in your intentions and your energy, but not necessarily in physical. You don’t need other people’s issues affecting your energy. When other in need for help, go help. Love means giving, caring and firm with the boundaries. That goes right back to master the silence and give up the ego need of “ effort”.
“When you reach the place beyond thoughts, the only thing you’ll find is love and the only purpose of life becomes to ease the suffering of others.”
WOW!! Just wow!!
Being a Tibetan born in India, it is really beautiful and mind healing to see this video..
Come back to your motherland. This is the most peaceful place in the world. People are pure and faithful here.
@@robinking3774 You leave first, rent free, longest tourist since 1959, and I'll come back to Tibet: pure and faithful already but not "motherland"...
Peace is the way forward, and I'll patiently wait you to understand, realize and implement this. I'm not in hurry.
Being Tibetan myself born and raised in India. Well I'm a Bon ( Tibetan Oldest Religion) followers , Its really amazing to see such tTibetan Buddhism practices in my home country Tibet, Indeed Thank you SLICE team for sharing.
Peace ;)
Wow you are Bon follower, I have seen video about discovering of Bon caves and their ancient manuscripts
For me, Annie is actually the real master who is checking out the levels of wisdom across Tibet.
Agree 🙏🏾💚
I started to wonder that myself, especially upon hearing others tell her or ask her "what are you running from, stay in one place". I don't see the point in telling all people to all do the same thing. Some people need to stay in place, some people need to wander, both are necessary in this world. I'm glad Ani "stuck to her guns".
Did you notice Jetsun Milarepa was walking bare feet on snow? And then he took a shower under a waterfall. How they make their bodies go beyond pain by harnessing the inner shakti is beyond ordinary intelligence. This is beyond science, beyond ordinary mind, beyond the infinite universe and yet so true and achievable.
I think these Tibetan yogins will defeat the Chinese who are trying to destroy their Buddhist traditions. The power of the devoted human mind is bigger than the entire universe!
Om mani padme hum!
Well said, thats the Tibetan yogis who can acheive such level....... beyond science beyond extraordinary.
They are not trying to destroy Buddhism. Many monasteries have been restored and are funded by rich Chinese practitioners in mainland China. Things have moved on from the cultural revolution. Of course, the government will clamp down on any politics of separatism but in terms of practicing Buddha dharma, there are few obstacles. Some Tibetans in India have even gone back. Especially those from east Tibet who politically were more independent from the Dalai Lama’s seat in Lhasa to begin with.
You are mis-informed China is full of temples, 🕌 and has many churches.
Whois the westerner they call the ice man as he can condition his body that allows him to swim under the ice?
There are divers who decide not to use SCUBA gear. They teach themselves how to hold their breath for VERY long time periods. They teach their bodies how to develop those skills and endure that. They and the people who walk on snow and shower under waterfalls, they are evolving faster and stronger than other human beings, teaching their bodies to do incredible things using their sheer will. All the respect in the world!
Thanks for this beautiful documentary. May Annie fulfill her dreams as a Dakini reaching the rainbow body. May these amazing Tibetan women be well, safe, free from suffering and reach total Bliss. 🙏🙌🥰
Thank you💜
Yes she will
Om Mane Pame Hum. May all find peace
This has been on my list to watch for years. I have finally watched it and sobbed numerous times. One of my last visits to Tibet, I fortunately was able to walk along the banks of Yihunla Tso. A very honest depiction of Tibet, without the glamorization or idealization of a very very difficult life. I have befriended countless nuns and each and every story has always been inspiring. Hamid Sardar, you are also quite an inspiration to a fellow photographer devoted to the lives of Tibetans.
"Abandon all efforts. Find the silence beyond thoughts. Then simply remain."
Most beautiful documentary I've seen in years! A real gem. Thank you! May all beings be happy and free.
She tell the truth!
True freedom is only in Jesus Christ.
I could not have put it in words any better!
@@earlysda What makes you say that? The Messiah was a Messenger of God but not God. And I have read the Bible, all of it, in no place is it written that Jesus the Messiah is the only source of freedom.
@@earlysda 2 Peter 2:18 For they speak bombastic nonsense, and with debased[l] desires of the flesh they entice people who have just[m] escaped from those who live in error. 19 They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, for people are slaves to whatever masters them.
What a brave woman to follow her heart like this even when everyone is telling her to quit and go back to her convent. My heart goes out to the Tibetan people struggling to keep their identity as a people and their immense spiritual treasure alive in a hostile world.
A lot of the head monks are secretive due to the CCP and Westerners. While they monk telling her to give up her search and go back to where she came from was very harsh, it’s because she brought a westerner (the videographer) with her. Outsiders and Westerners learning about the secret teachings is how Tibet ended the way it is. During the days of Emperor Ashoka of Maurya, the secret teachings were not secret, but the Muslims centuries later would slaughter all the Buddhists in India causing the teachings the vanish there but survive in Tibet. The Jesuit and Knights Templars were also probing Tibet, some trying to establish the Christian Ity that is Rome, others trying to steal and occult the teachings. An example of this is the Krishna Consciousness in the Bhagavad Gita being rebranded by the Christian as the Christ Consciousness. This caused Tibetans to start rejecting outsiders. Things got bad during the British Raj period. Tibetans started making secret their teachings, as the British were raiding and sacking temples and stealing artifacts and texts now shown in London. Only the Nazis were welcomed in Tibet, as they came in good Consciousness seeking to learn not to take- quiet the contradiction to what we’ve been told about them. What they learned there was learned by the Allies following WWII and the United States, British, and Soviets started probing Tibet and seeking access to the secret teachings and the location of Shambhala. This caused the Tibetans to completely seal themselves off. Then the Chinese came and forced it out of them, killing 1 million, destroying 9,000+ temples, stealing 18,000 scrolls and countless artifacts, and slaughtering entire Vajrayana Lineages into extinction. The west did nothing and stood by in hopes that the CCP would share with them willingly knowledge that the Tibetans would not, only to have the CCP give them the finger. Those you see in the video are those who survived. So when they see this wanderer with a westerner taking about how she wants to know about secret teachings, she is seen as a threat to what little existence they have left. This is especially since the CCP keeps physical and digital control over the region.
@@NarasimhaDiyasena Yes, that is an interesting insight, I had not thought of that. So much light is bound to attract much darkness, even a vicious push back like Chinese communism.
There was so much light in the native american way of life and world view and look what a vicious push back overtook them and almost destroyed that. I once saw some footage that had been smuggled out of Tibet and the faces of the tibetans held the exact same look of stunned bewilderment, that could be seen in the faces of native americans soon after they had been through their own version of the holocaust.
@@NarasimhaDiyasena There are no secrets to the Buddhas teachings, its extremely down to earth. There's no magical techniques, transmissions or occult knowledge. Its accessible to pretty much everyone with internet access. All this talk of "secret" methods is mostly tradition and ceremony. The teachings are fine, accessible to everyone and no special Tibetan teachers are needed. "Advanced" practices tend not to be talked about, not because of some exclusive secrecy, but because they are irrelevant to novices and tend to end up confusing the practitioner. High level practice tends to be outside of concept and intellect anyways so there's not too much to say about it in the first place. Buddhism tends to rise and fall, there are rulers and cultures that support it and build it up and rulers and cultures that condemn and destroy it.
@@carolinebarnes6832 Wtf are you on about "smuggled"? Bruh all you have to do is get a visa to go there and vice versa. Exocticsm and brainwashing at its finest here. Also, sadly not al Tibetian wants to be primitive yak herders that you so idolize. Some would rather get central heating and work a cushy office job.
@@dabo5078 There is not cure for willful ignorance.
This is one of the most beautiful and profound documentaries I have ever seen.
As a U.K. Buddhist I thank you for showing the wonder of Tibet and the traditional practices. May I reach Tibet one day and bask in its spiritual glory 🙏🏽😊☸️🕉☸️🕉
As a human being, I urge you to travel to where you love quickly, life is mysterious. Don't wait ever.
Do yourself a favour and go to Bhutan instead. It is sad that the CCP has destroyed Tibetan culture and are now rebuilding Mickey Mouse Buddhist temples and Buddhist sites. The Dalai Lama is long gone from Tibet yet Bhutan is still a true Buddhist nation. Bhutan is almost identical to Tibet post CCP invasion..
@@shivdeep2983 Ha, ha, ha....from Nepal.
@@bsky636 Did i write anything wrong over there? Don't you agree?
@@vietnguyen4312 We've been fed this narrative that the "CCP" has been destroying Tibet and it's culture since 1950, yet it seems that Tibetan culture and language is alive and well. Tibetans are still speaking their language and practicing Buddhism, which by the way many Han Chinese also practice.
I wish Tibet would forever remain untouched, isolated, protected from any external force or influence. I wish its teachings, its beautiful culture and religion would reach us only by the winds teavelling above its mountains. That way, we would be touched by the beauty of Tibet without ever spoiling it with our dirty feet, dirty hands and dirty minds.
Winds above the mountains, this is the typical bs nonsense you read from a Buddhist.
When Tibet was untouched, the average life span of Tibetans was around 35 years. hehe..

@@kingniehwong7417 Please revisit your history textbook. British expedition to Tibet, viz. Younghusband expedition, began in December 1903 and lasted until September 1904. The expedition was effectively a temporary invasion by British Indian Armed Forces under the auspices of the Tibet Frontier Commission, whose purported mission was to establish diplomatic relations and resolve the dispute over the border between Tibet and Sikkim.
I am from Germany and practicing the Buddha-Dharma since only about 3 years. I started studying Buddhism at te Tibetan Center in Hamburg 3 month ago. I am really grateful for your documentary. Om Ah Ra Pa Tsa Na Dhi!
Don’t be sectarian and see the underlying nature of all.
As a brazillian Vajrayana beginner, I want to express my deppest gratitude for bring to us this gem! May all beings be blessed by this, and also you!
Ani is incredibly courageous. To tell us the Tibetan ancient scriptures, MUST be learned in Chinese, is mind boggling. Since I was born in 1953, I had dreams about Tibet very young.
The Mad Saint is someone that is truly enlightened and supports Ani's Quests. Excellent documentary in every way. I Hope You make more for the outside world! Namaste
All the scriptures are in tibetan language.
This is a little dated I think I saw on CGTN that Tibetan is taught in school now. Think what you will at that
@CGTN is a CCP Funded media. Who you trying to lie mr50cent ?
Tibet is a place I've held in my heart my whole life without even knowing.
The line she said : "I consider all living beings my children, hence my lack of interest in marrying a man"...it is wonderful
Beautiful lines🥰
So you Hat3 Men as well. Tox1c F3m1n1st
Indeed! I feel the same way ! Never had interest in men, dating etc.
I spent months among the Tibetans in Nepal and I was so impressed by them that by the time I left, I'd fallen in love with the entire community.
What an inspiring documentary, thank you! How wonderful of Ani to follow her inner wisdom and become the Wondering Nun. Some of us connect to our spirituality through movement, receiving information that way. Feeling the wind through our hair on top of a mountain, by walking through hidden valleys, by meeting people on our journeys, by receiving food from strangers. Ani's brave and I'd love to think that her childlike curiosity plays a big role in her becoming a Loving Light.
TIBETT SHOULD NOT B FREE OTHERWISE ITS ALSO LOOTED BY ITS OWN CAPATILSTS PEPOPLE LIKE INDIA PAKISTAN .WHERE ALL THE WEALTH HOLD BY 1% PEOPLE
It is incredible how the tragedy of Tibet contributed to the spread of Tibetan culture and knowledge about the organization and peace of mind around the globe. Nowdays there is no more global, deep and extensive knowledge of the mind than Tibetan Buddhism. It is accessible to everyone, non-religious, translated into all languages of the world. Live teachers, live transmission line. The 14th Dalai Lama is still alive. We, those who are interested in how the mind works, strive for the good, still have a good chance) All the best, thanks for the film!
I love the idea of Buddhism as not being a religion but rather a way of life.
Here in the west, I think we think about things too black and white. Calling Buddhism a religion makes us think of it in a certain way, that it is not compatible with our Christian based societies. But I think there is a lot to be learned from Buddhism and I hope more people can embrace it as a way of living instead.

Buddhism is not a religion true. 8 noble truths. Wheel of mya . Purify yourself then follow your heart. Male Leaders have egos females not so much.

Thank You Sooooo much for this most amazing and inspiring documentary. I am a Tibetan Buddhist practitioner in the US and I am aspiring to accomplish the very same aspiration as the Nuns of Gebchak. Seeing Yoginis and Yogis in Tibet in the holy and powerful places striving on the path is sooooooo powerfully inspiring for me. May all aspirants on the sublime path accomplish the path swiftly and smoothly.
my favourite 49:35 when you reached the place beyond thoughts, the only thing you'll find is love, and the only purpose of life becomes to ease the suffering of others.
Beautiful Words Brother, thank you. Hope your heart is full of Love.

What an extraordinary documentary! The cinematography is breathtaking; I literally have dreams like this. The many Buddhists who prostrate incredibly gruelling distances have a faith most of us can only aspire to. I can't say enough about Tibet, the path to Wisdom. It's an award winner in my books.
This woman shows dedication to the faith of Buddhism . Her journey into the lost spiritual traditions of Tibetan Buddhism is a virtue that most could not complete. May she one day find what she is looking for in this world or the next. Om Mani Padme Hum. Namaste.

I believe Ani would have much to discuss with the Aboriginal people of Australia who believe in the 'songlines' which were traversed during the creation of their lands. They would understand her desire to walk as a way of recreating her Tibetan heritage.

I had the absolute privilege of going to Tibet in 2017. I took a 22 hour train from Qinghai to Lhasa, and I would SEE these pilgrims beaded toward the capital. I saw them pray and prostate (fully bowing all the way on the floor) often every few steps.
In Tibet, I was stunned by how heavy the air was with spirituality. A local ran across the street to fix a friend’s scarf that had fallen… and to think that they have been persecuted by the CCP for so many decades breaks my heart.
I truly hope Tibet can be allowed to preserve their precious way of life.
如果中共真的迫害，你不会看到寺庙。所谓的宗教迫害，完全就是谎言。
🙏🙏🙏🙏
This video actually shows how resilience Tibetan is when living their way of life, despite what western people said about "CCP".
I feel very fortunate to witness this beautiful journey of ani . I have heard how people go beyond their boundary to find their guru and how they work hard for it but seeing ani, shows us how much dedication and faith we need. Thank you for making this beautiful documentary. May Buddha bless all sentient being.

Thank you slice for showing the glimpse of my mother land, I left my country at the age of 5 leaving behind everything I owe.
This documentary send us a great message “to look within ourself “ we have enough search outside world, may every body their inner peace and true compassion.
I really resonate with this woman and her obstacles. thank you for putting her story here in video.
The journey of Ani is a difficult jury made for all of humanity, including me. Thank you 🙏
The most amazing thing is that you can't find Ani, as she is in moving constantly. This is like a fairy tale in real life. It must have been amazing and very special to be with her on part of her journey.
Thank you for this documentary and for letting us follow Her journey. I wish nothing but the best for the Tibetan people. Peace.
What a beautiful and poignant production. I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of this documentary. It inspired me and comforted me while learning more about Tibet and Buddhism. I am more eager now to visit Tibet and walk among the holy people who devote their lives to ease the suffering of everyone living in this evil world we inhabit.
if you look around there is only a small percentage that's evil
@@anon8730 I do look around and see lots of evil that's not visible because it is cleverly and purposely disguised and hidden from public view. Just think of the wealthiest 1% of the population.
Amazing documentary. Hope this way of life continues forever.
Really!! Under Chinese rule. STUFF THAT! IT'SO HEARTBREAKING TO SEE THE TIBETANS LIVING LIKE THIS.LONG LIVE THE DALAI LAMA AND BUDDHISM.

Yeah... Chinese are the killers of TIBET 👁️❗
Wow. Isn't it miraculous that all tradition see disappearance of thought and blending with nature as the path to enlightenment? Thank you for this beautiful documentary.

What an incredible documentary! I would love to know more about Ani and her story. She is an extraordinary and brave woman.
I am also curious about her journey In this modern world she took her own path she is alone but brave and stubborn
Tibetans are greatest in the wild lordb
Lesh them
'The happiness of one depends on the happiness of all' what a wonderful view on life!
I come back to this documentary almost every year somehow. I am touched by how connected with their primordial culture are the Buddhist of Tibet. I pray for their well being. Thank you @SLICE for creating this timeless, intricately placed documentary. I am moved.
With Ani Rigsang;s wandering and in search of her path on spiritual journey, I felt we all have got some nuggets of wisdom. I am thankful to you for making this beautiful Documentary by covering her journey . There is a deeper meanings to our existence, but unfortunately getting caught in the negative side of the whirlpool of advancement. May there be peace all around. 🙏
A journey alone with a full camera crew, yep, everyone believes the gods filmed her. Not different to man in the wild, with shots only a cameraman can take...Tibet is beautiful and sure there are also beautiful people there and some non so beautiful people, just like everywhere in the world.
I would give anything to go to Tibet. Sadly I cannot afford to. I love to watch such videos. This one was excellent. Thank you such a humble way to live . peace be with you all.
Maybe you can, just try to go beyond your thoughts of you can't! there is only "t" standing in your way 🙂if you could remove it
How much do they want you to pay to go?
This is an incredible documentary and I am so glad it has recently been shared over the RUclips family. I had no idea that when the Dali llama left there was a Panché llama that stayed in order to preserve the Tibetan and culture and convinced The Chinese government to provide a place where Tibetans could learn about their culture and continue studying Buddhism. This is a revelation. The Chinese almost did better for their indigenous culture than we Americans have done for ours
