Eating in the most remote Buddhist monastery | SLICE

Phuktal Monastery is one of the only Buddhist monasteries in Nothern India that is still only reachable by foot.
Groceries are delivered by horses and donkeys in the warmer months. In winter, they have to be transported through the frozen Zanskar River.
So how do nuns eat in one of the most remote Buddhist monastery? With just some flour and a small fire, they are able to make delicious bread and tea.
Watch their impressive cooking skills!

God, please protect this monastery from backpackers and Youtewbers looking for views. Amen.

The only religion spread without violence,to my knowledge!.

[@kagar3465]

Yes, almost all of East Asia adopted Buddhism from Tibetans who in turn got it from Indians. Mongols, Koreans, Japanese, Chinese and the Siberians as well like Tuvans and Buryats, all Buddhists and/or historically Buddhists.

@@caspar9794 Are you saying this because of your own experience or because you have been told so? It is a widespread misconception to think of Buddhism as a philosophy. It is indeed a religion, as it reveals a reality which is not accessible to the rational human mind. No intellect-based philosophy can ever lead to enlightenment.

[@bobvillanueva712]

BUDDHISM is neither a religion nor a philosophy, put simply it's what the JERRY SEINFELD EPISODES are about "NOTHING" e=mc, yea? "EVERY WISH FULFILLED" E.T.

So? You cooked food? Literally billions of people cook food worldwide.

If i cook, you better call out the local fire fighters.

The atmosphere is soothing and calming, and their daily chores seem to be part of their spiritual cultivation. Thank you!

Gracias SLICE por compartir estos documentales aprendo mucho del mundo

[@StacyL.]

I wish there was English subtitles...

[@Veluvian]

No need. So much is said without translation and mechanically familiar words... :)

[@aaronschannel639]

Does anybody know the words to what is being sung or chanted?

[@inkorn6482]

Это ведь из старого видео. О дальнейшей судьбе Тензин и Палкит хоть что-то известно?

In Appalachia we put our yak butter on the bread, not in the tea.

[@80sidd]

They dip the bread in the tea and eat

[@Mahantharish6222]

It's butter tea sometimes it's sweet but most of the time it's salt tea.

[@_robustus_]

@@Mahantharish6222 Joking. We have no yaks here.😏

[@lf3206]

The nuns are so beautiful and pure.

In our area khamir bread is called baturu.
