Ancient Futures: Learning from Ladakh

[@ferozshukchik]

Stepping back into the past through this documentary felt like a heartfelt journey. A gentle reminder of the timeless beauty and changes in our beloved Ladakh.

Ok l

[@garry8390]

This video should be seen by all in the West.

I show it every year to my grade 12 anthro/psych/soc class and we spend much time discussing it. Love this film.

[@Maya-gq3hm]

@@trevorrostek5995 Awesome!

[@Naturevsnurture86]

I agree.

[@ajeyklg]

Even eye opening for us Easterns

[@ChrisOgunlowo]

A fascinating documentary. I came here from a mention by Dr Iain MigilChrist in an interview in which he mentioned Helena Norberg-Hodge. I'm glad I followed by curiosity.

[@Sontse09]

This is authentic and precious Ladakh .

@ 55:55 The distinction between cleverness and wisdom is so beautifully expressed.

[@ChrisOgunlowo]

Well-articulated.

"...creating specialized workers who are ignorant of the rest of the knowledge base" makes so much sense now on why my work environment and the people are so toxic (Computer Science)

Today ajang sonam wangchuk's wisdom is saving ladakh 🌱

Money is NOT everything. True Richness lies in Nature and Independent Life and 🙏 Sustainment. 💖

Ladakh isn't the same now 😢. Modernization has been changing ladakh n it's nature day by day. Government of india is not providing the 6th schedule title to ladakh which ladakh has been demanding from decades to protect its nature. As from the abolition of article 370 of Jammu and Kashmir, people from different places can buy land in ladakh which can cause more destruction

If you read this comment - please share this film on your social media. We are in this together, and the more that see this, the easier it will be to change as society. Also you should see the classic BBC-documentary "Century of the Self", which explains how we have all been manipulated to accept the western ideals. A must-watch for any truth-seeker.

[@erfahrungderwelt]

A wonderful video. I would offer to create German subtitles for this video if you're interested (for free of course).

[@SLefd]

pleaase put English subtitles?

[@JoseMejia-ke1ez]

Que absurdo , la ausencia de subtitulos para tan excelente video !!!!!!

[@yangchandolma-9545]

Lovely 🌹😍

[@wangial]

Hardly anything is left in Leh now which is Ladakhi. Such a sad story unfolding in front of you.

[@nosiruridwan9074]

Can someone summarize this video 🙏🏻

[@Naturevsnurture86]

Sad what is going on. Wish we left tech out and lived as we should have. Modernization has caused so many problems. Violence and crime stems from all this.

[@littlemoth4956]

Violence and crime stems from technology? You sure about that bud?

[@arsalan3869]

you have more clips???

[@liamtaylor4955]

Fossil fuels and their fraudulent increases to carrying capacity. Sad.

[@MohdIbrahim-ri9he]

We have lost the glorious past

[@Tonywozere99]

Ever a history of aristocratic feudalism here?

[@library5178]

Yess......

[@kirianajackson7845]

With the intrusion of an outside language and methodology causes a cultural loss of a nation.

Leave the leh valley alone

The comments are so annoying. Nobody's forcing them to demand hospitals so their kids don't have a short life expectancy. You're all sitting in your miserable cozy homes saying this

[@SLefd]

Wherever people don't have access to modern medicine and aren't even aware of the existence of it, they cope with it all OK. An uncomfortable, harsh life, individually often short - and of course we personally wouldn't want to live like that now. We haven't learned how to. But you see with your own eyes that those people were doing good, were happy and relaxed. And nature doesn't care about our wishes and whims. When it's time for humans to be thrown back to harsher conditions like Ladakh again, that's what will happen. People in Ladakh understood that challenging nature more than absolutely necessary, was dangerous. Until they too finally got lured away from that wisdom, as we can see in this superb little movie.
