You can almost start your own Discovery channel...there is lot to learn and see...thank you very very much for everything...massive respect...
You have not only shown us the village, people and their culture but also make us feel the warmth of sunchok ceremony and made us feel connected to these people. while watching your videos I felt like I am there, living all those moment with villagers as you did. Thank You so much for this wonderful experience.
This is such a beautiful community living. each family takes care of the other to celebrate so that no family is deprived of happiness. Its good of the lamas too to reduce their fees so that all families can have the opportunity to perform the rituals.. Extremely thoughtful gestures. This feels like another world altogether.
Trying out a different style of editing and story telling for the new year. Let me know if you can see the difference and if you like it or not. Happy New Year Everyone.
Guess the live chat ends a few minutes after the premiere. I couldn't reply to the last comment as well.
Yes
No..i like old style ,but I'm not an expert So you know better
I like this format that edit key pieces and weaving a story - usually seen in best documentaries. Keep going Saravanan with your awesome work!
Excellent content and great style.. looks like i am watching national geographic or discovery channel.. good work bro..keep it up
Attending a Sunchok is now on my bucketlist, thanks to you! :-)
And since it is an autumn festival, the temperatures in Pin Valley shouldn't be too low or uncomfortable.
Already talking to my local friends from Dhansar and Tabo to see if I can attend one in future.
My friends are shocked to know that I want to attend a Sunchok, and say, "Aapko hamare ghar ka Sunchok attend karne aana hai!" :-)
Amazing warm-hearted people of Spiti. Makes you want to leave everything and join their tribe.
It's such a rich and beautiful culture, you people are really blessed. 😊🙏
Never seen such a beautiful content. Thank you for showing our Himalayan range people's culture and rituals.
Who are these 400 ppl who have disliked this . Are they blind, deaf and completely daft...??
India in motion deserves way way more followers... This is amazing documentation... I'm sure this page will blow up very soon. Amazing stuff..
Himalayan culture has same dance, singing & eating style....proud of my Himalayan Culture ❤️
Yes the same in Bhutanese villages
@@user-lb5ph5ke7d 😀🙏
@@user-lb5ph5ke7d Bhutan, Tibet, Nepal, Places in India like Himachal, Leh & Uttrakhand all have one common thing Himalayas..that's why we all have same culture 🙏
I remember visiting pin valley back when I was in 1 grade . The trip left such a lasting effect on me. Visited again last year can't believe the place is still the same . Your video is so nostalgic .
Seeing all this reminded me of my village and my childhood i am from gilgit baltistan watching from Dubai
Ooh but this is india 🤟🤟🤟
@@proudtobeanindian5484 baltistan ladakh and tibet are same geographically and almost same cultures....once they were all united in the past then got divided into three countries...
Wow. What a happy set of people. I wish if I were born there. 😍❤️ റിംപോച്ചേ എന്ന് കേട്ടപ്പോൾ മുഖത്ത് ഒരു പുഞ്ചിരി വിടർന്ന മലയാളികൾ ഉണ്ടോ 😍❤️
देख कर बहुत अच्छा लगा। आप लोगों की संस्कृति महान है।नमन करते हैं।
I feel proud that i am a part of this beautiful valley ...and after a manny years later i see
that all ....for a moment i feel i was also there with my villagers even having fun with them
What iS the village name bro?? And where it's located??
@@mixmasala175 It's Spiti Valley, located in Himachal Pradesh.
So very informative . Thanks! These age old traditions are so simple , honest and done from the heart.Its sad that with the young generation leaving their villages and going in search of a better future in the cities , these soulful ans rustic traditions are in danger of dissapearing . Hope a few of the younger generation do stay back and carry on these beautiful traditions . THANKS for taking us into their world.☺
The content is so underrated. Beautiful to watch an entire community working so hard. Wow I got emotional.
Hi Sarvana Kumar , accept my applause for making such a great documentary on Pin valley, i ve seen all your series and came to know about culture and tradition of pin valley. let it be climate , trade tradition , culture you have presented it flawlessly.
from shooting to editing and narration you are all in all .....you are the role model for me...thank you once again
Thanks for the lovely comment
Its like i am with them in this beautiful ceremony. Such a vivid and detailed visualisation of the life in such a remote area. Thanks for letting us go through this beautiful journey.
The camera angles, cinematography is as if done by pros using multiple cameras, that you did it all alone shows your class and talent! Brilliant!! Thank You!
This is a wonderful documentary. You have done a stupendous job. I have been walking the mountains for a long time, but to be able to capture the lives of people and bring them out in such candid manner is a great feat. That too done singlehandedly. Wonderful
Many thanks!
Such harmony between the villagers that we seldom see these days..thank you for making such beautiful series...
Wow... Thanks for making the culture and traditions so accessible. It's almost as if we were there.....
You are welcome
I am thankful to youtube for recommending this channel. This is gem!
This is precious content ... thanks for preserve it ... these peoples dont know they are not going to be same after 10 years as they are now and watches your videos and they also thank you ...
I watched the entire series. Such a simple & innocent life these people live. Thank you for capturing their practices and traditions at such proximity. It must take a lot of interest and effort in changing lives effortlessly between a city and village with vast food and clothing differences. Excellent job 👍👏
Genuine people with beautiful souls living with such a great simplicity @mountain people ❤️
Wow! Such a beautiful and responsible community, how thoughtful of the attendees to help the host. Despite so much hardships, they all look happier than most wealthy urban dwellers. I Love your videos, awesome work!.
So much of unheard tradition only because of your efforts that we are able to see and know thank you so very much
You cannot buy the way to live life happily, to help each other is the ultimate &only way, we need to learn from this community. God bless them.
One of the best mini series I've watched on RUclips. Thank you for this.
Glad you enjoyed it!

No TV channel or big media houses never bring this type real culture and real life of village in Himachal ,Utrakhand ,Ladakh and other mountain villages who are not conected with Roads
This is brilliant, Saravanan. On par with NG - you have captured the essence of the event. And there is a Zen'ness in your voice and the narration. Gem of work!
pin valley - one of the coldest places in India where the winter temp can drop as low as minus 30 degrees, to see them having some fun, enjoying their life with this Sunchok fest is fantastic. thanks to India in Motion for bringing this hidden fest to all of us!!
Its known as cold desert
There's such a beauty in these ceremonies all over the world...
I'm so grateful for you to flim it in such a simple way....
Thank you....
All love and blessing to you
proud of our culture and it's diversity... Being a avid traveler ... waiting for life to get back to normal ,,, and than again start exploring great country called India...
I love my himachali culture ❤❤❤.jai Hind jai Bharat 🙏 jai Himachal
Great india, great budhdha, great lama's......Much appreciated for video.........Hats off
Awesome this is. Called unity and helping hands 👍
Thank you ji for showing us such beautiful customs virtually. The background singing is amazing!
your work truly gives justice to the name of the channel.
and i can't thank you enough for showing us such places and traditions which are also a part of our India and I'm so happy to learn about them.
In one day I had seen all your vdo... I couldn't resist myself... I have noword to thank for such a wonderful journey...
Thanks for this lovely new year gift! Wish you all the best of everything for 2020. 🙏🏼
Thanks Sue. Wish you a wonderful 2020 as well.
The world would have been an better place had everyone lived like this!
The folk songs are always so amazing. The song while they were dancing was no different.
Sunchok looks like an expensive business. Inviting 100 lamas is not a joke. Jus few days ago we had 4 lamas invited for a puja at home. Look at the number difference. Having said that, 100 lamas seems no problem for these Villagers, and the best part is they have fixed a certain amount as offerings.Also what I found interesting is how the villagers come together to help harmoniously.when so much people gather, God knows they might be haviñg small arguments/ misunderstandings, but the way u have directed your video puts everybody in good space.. Helpful..cheerful..fun loving....!!!! Loved the culture n concept of Sunchok. I would like to get a Sunchok done too. And thanks to you for sharing!.
Thankyou for sharing the nice video. Very very beautiful people and beautiful traditional cultures with great spirits. My respect and best wishes to you all.
I wish there is a sunchok everywhere in India. Free flow of booze.
Cheers!!!
ThankU for sharing and posting. Eternal Gratitude and Appreciation. Namaste

wav! this episode is much good, loved to see this one...
Love these beautiful culture, tradition, place , animals, Himalayan Buddhism ,, dialects .....dear Himalayan mountain people your places are peaceful, safe and natural due to your tradition preservation , do preserve it . Govt must need to do some law or organisation to preserve these race of Himalayan people , dialect , tradition and religion . Such precious life is hard to find these days in modern urban world ....
Beautiful tradition... reflecting religion and culture 🙏🎊
12:04 They are singing an old song of mid himalayan culture (Shimla hills)! I wasn't expecting that! 😂 Their strong community sense reminded of me of my own village. 🙏
one of the best .....beautifully captured...what a simple and great lifestyle....
