I can’t believe I am watching this for free. This is such high quality content, it felt like a big production documentary, I can only imagine how much work went into it. Thank you so much please don’t stop! You are probably the only one covering these unknown but fascinating topics.

As a Nepali Buddhist we are also smilar to tibetan cultures and religion ❤

As a Mongolian I watched it with both intensity and perhaps little sadness. I usually get offended by the videos made by non Mongols talking about our history as it entails with personal bias. But your videos are truthful, factual and honest. Thank you for that and I really liked the fact that you visited Mongolia to really understand the essence of the people you are narrating about. Btw do you have any Mongol in you? Interesting to know.

Thank you. Thank you! I'm a Han Chinese but never was I introduced the relationship between Tibetan and Mongolian in my history and culture education in schools. But I always heard an old saying 'Zang Meng Yi Jia' 藏蒙一家 which means Tibetans and Mongolians are of a one family. And in Beijing there're many Tibetan and Mongol remnants and artifacts left from previous dynasties. Now I came to know it. How wonderful! May God bless Tibetans and Mongolians around the world!

As a Bhutanese originally ethic to Tamang people of Mountains of Himalayan region, I really felt how far we were influenced by Tibetan Buddhism. We practise Tibetan Buddhism , we speak perhaps the oldest language of Tibetan but at present mostly influenced by Nepali language , I am worried where Buddhism we learnt from Tibet will head , and Tamangs are rapidly converting to Christianity and other religions recently . And thank you for wonderful presentations.

What a fascinating history! As a Bangladeshi, I've visited Nepal and met many Tibetans over the years and have always been fascinated by the complexity and depth of Tibetan Buddhist teachings. You've given me a lot of context through a geopolitical lens that was missing. Thank you for telling this history beautifully and enriching my understanding of these cultures.

To realize that mongols follows Buddhism (Tibetan Buddhism) so deeply but doesn't speak a word nor read Tibetan alphabetics although.. But the faith and devotion they had for First Dalai lama even to this present day Dalai Lama is unbelievable 🙏

Amazing video! Although I have to say that for Mongols living under Russian rule (Kalmyks, Buryads and Tuvans) Tibetan Buddhism was a blessing that saved us from massive christianisation. Russian imperial government tried to convert the ethnic minorities to Christianity but Buddhism served as the stronghold of native identity for Mongols. So, I'm glad Tibetan missionaries reached us earlier than Christians

Love from the Philippines! There is so much to learn from Asian history. Listening to your storytelling is like watching a historical cdrama - so many plots, subplots and conspiracies. An hour passed by in a breeze.

Watching from Bhutan. I didn't realize that I watched an hour long video; it felt like 10 minutes of power packed details and well researched facts. Well done!

Tibet and mongol are two treasures underrated of east asian cultures. I lived in a family which influenced a lot by tibetan buddism culture without any tibetan blood, i hoop i would have the talent, skill and ability like you to make a video or words whatever. By the way, the romance of the land of this part of continent was so fasinating. Thank you very much for your incredible work, it is already like a masterpiece, great job!

Though I am not Tibetan Buddhist but because of my love for history n geography, I saw your vlog. Very interesting and well researched video 👏 👍

As a Tibetan from nomadic family I strongly believe we Tibetans and Mongolians are brothers and sisters

Amazing!! I am a Tibetan. Really enjoyed learning more about my history and also what was happening on the other side (Mongol and Chinese...). I wanted to add 2 things. 1. The Golden Urn to decide the next Dalai Lama. How is that still in China. Because The Dalai Lama continued to this day. Current Dalai Lama being 14th in the lineage. Tibetan did use golden urn to find Dalai Lama. 2. Potala was not built entirely by the 5th Dalai Lama. Potala was originally built King Songtsen Gampo in ~7th Century. 5th Dalai Lama later added the red structures of Potala today. So White part is King Songtsen Gampo and red apart is done by 5th Dalai Lama.

Thank you for bringing life and excitement to a piece of history that many are barely familiar with. You're doing an amazing job !!!

As a Chinese Mongolian, I really appreciate your work, and hope to know more about the history.

As a Mongolian watching this video, well done. Speechless.

As an indian , it felt like a journey through centuries!! Its one of the finest documentaries i have seen. I lived in Nainital, in the state of Uttarakhand which has a large Tibetan population. Really fascinating.

Wow very impressive video! We, buryats, i guess, never were really introduced to a well researched documentation of how did we started to follow buddism, how did all it sterted deep in history. Btw we still name our children with Tibetan names. Thank you for your work!!

You literally provided a documentary on youtube, really great work

Awesome video! Thank you for taking time to do this. I learned a lot!

This is such a well researched work. I have always been fascinated about Tibetam and Mongolian history and this documentary has such an educational value. Congratulations bro, you did it again!

This is a great video! Thank you for your effort and input. Much appreciated.

This was a wonderful, in-depth exploration of this topic. Loved your analysis!

I want to again express my support & gratitude for your coverage! It is best to get any/every angle possible on such things & your track record has been incredible. This show deserves more recognition. Much love & appreciation from the United States Utah Oblast!

Not quite sure why this video doesn’t have much more views… even though it maybe oversimplified, you told the story of the Tibetanization of the Mongols so well, very well done. Also you sound so different when you speaking Mandarin… languages are so interesting 😅

Learned a lot from you regarding East Asian history. Was broadly aware of Chinese and Japanese history but Tibetan, Mongolian and Korean histories are also very fascinating and played a big role in forming present China.

Very high quality video, thanks!

As a Tibetan family I found your blog made us really interesting to know all the history which is my favorite subject too. Thank you for all the knowledge.May peace reveal around the world. Once again thank you all the team 💐🙏🫡

always looking forward to watching your documentaries!

Sir, I am lost for words. This one of the best historical documentary I ever watched, everything is on point: narrative, delivery, relevance and graphics. I feel more informed and still want to know more, keep up the good work. You are really providing high quality content.

最近看过最用心制作的视频，一定花费了很多心血，简直是专业纪录片的水平！字幕表里的语言之多也把我吓到，作者一定是个多语言的天才😂 刚把视频推荐给了同在瑞典的越南朋友，因为她说感觉这边的蒙古人无处不在，所以对蒙古的历史也很感兴趣。感谢你的视频！👍

Astonishing high quality content. Thank you my fellow Mongolian

In fact, Buddhism did not only exert a huge influence in Mongolia and Tibet. In the south, the struggle between Buddhist Cambodia/Thailand and Vietnam with Chinese culture has also become the keynote of the history of Indochina. Three hundred years ago, Saigon, the economic center of modern Vietnam, belonged to the Buddhists of the Lower Khmer. History is always so interesting that we can often find surprising similarities between different cultures, and your videos are the best medium! With fantastic talents, one day you will be able to have your own professional team and produce perfect documentaries! Thank you again for such a great video!

As a Tibetan I always feel mongols like a brother and sister even though I have never seen one before. Few days back I saw a girl who is mongol she look so much like my niece which instantly give me a feeling nearness that I have lot of common.

Amazing video, thank you

I am also Chinese however I spent most of my life in the west Thank you for your effort You should be given a golden globe Extremely informative and entertaining documentaries you make Absolutely amazing Proud to be Chinese I am.humbled to be your audience

It was great to have met you in the guesthouse in Kharkhorin, Mongolia. Thanks for presenting such history to us.

amazing video. thanks for the update

Great:I did never know anything of it. So you did very wel to make and publish this video! Thanks.

nice explanation!!! keep it up!!!!

I have never seen a Chinese who speaks like him! He paid so much effort, research and enthusiasm into his work. What he says is non-biased, so much on point. Hope someone could sponsor him and let him be a director to make more videos! Thank you for your effort!

This is really good information. Thank you for clearing out a lot of things that’s I didn’t understand before.

wow this is really quality content, thanks!

What a compelling way of storytelling. I am Indonesian, and I wish that we have Indonesian youtuber talking about social, cultural, and ethnic matters the way you deliver it.

Great research as usual!!!! Hope to learn more from you!!!

Excellent work, thanks for sharing. Cheers.

a video about the relationship between Srivijaya Empire, the Pala Dynasty and Tibetan Buddhism would be interesting. Maybe another offshoot for how Tantric Buddhism resched the Southern Philippines would also be speculative topic for the next. There was a discovered Golden Tara artifact back in the 1980s suspected to be an earlier Buddhist influence to the country.

Masterpiece, very hardworking for the audience. Thanks a lot. ❤

This was so interesting , Thank you so much for putting this history together.

Very interesting, thank you for the research efforts on the topic, VERY interesting!🎬👏

Tibetans and Mongols have had close connections before there was even a China, Tibet or Mongolia! The Qiang tribes in northern Tibet intermixed with the proto-Mongol Xianbei to become the Tuyuhun, as just one of many examples! I'm a Tibetan and whenever anyone guess what kind of Asian I am, they always assume that I am a Mongolian

Throughout our history, all the nations were fighting against each other for short-term benefits. We all are human beings. Interdependent, we must respect every language, culture, and cast. We have to live as one nation, with no boundaries. Like Europe 🇪🇺 I appreciate your job. Thanks bro

Great video!

There is so much work put into this video, thank you!!!❤❤❤

终于更新啦🎉

Impressive documentation!!! Thank you and greetings from switzerland

thanks for covering so much ground you've answered so many queries i have had about the two cultural spheres, cheers. from West Australia.

Great video once again, can't stop watching it!

Very well researched content on the history of Tibet and Mongolia,

As a Korean, glad to understand various historical events arisen among our relatives; Manchus, Mongolians and Tibetans.

Awesome works! Amazing!

Thank you for such a thorough summary of the relationship between Tibetan Buddhism and Mongolia. It's a complicated subject but your video explained it very well. I've subscribed.

As a Han Chinese, i am really into Mongolian culture since a very young age. And I reckon i was a Mongolian last lifetime. Everytime I went to Inner Mongolia I felt the sense of familiarity and warmth. Your music, language and even your faces give me great peace. Sincerely hope you can retrieve your original culture...

I am from Jamaica and a lover of History first and geopolitics second then kung fu movies and i have been a huge fan of the Chinese costume dramas that depict the different dynasties. Always wondered what became of the mongols and this cleared it up big time. Well done ✔️ .

Another great video! I had no idea about all these! Thank you for educating the uninitiated!

Fantastic video! Thank you for your extensive research.

Wow, this got me to subscribe instantaneously! Thanks for the work without geopolitical bias! As a Chinese myself, I admire your effort in informing the world with highest quality documentary backed by systematic research. Keep this coming please….. 🎉

Extremely well researched and presented to connect these relatively unknown regions in religions, culture and politics.

Beautiful content. Pls keep it up Jingwu!

Thank you for such an excellent video. I thoroughly enjoyed watching it. Excellent content.

The amount of love and effort you've put in, both in research and in production, shows. I hope you make it big. You deserve it. Love from Bangladesh.

Thank you for sharing such great documentaries and fascinating events in Mongolia and Tibetan history. I found very interesting things in your vlog. Can make a video for Tibetan empire in 7 an 8 century?

博主不仅视频做得认真人长得还帅，梳理的脉络清晰而逻辑通畅便于观众理解，制作精良+满分文案，很难不爱呀，一把子关注了w

This is actually a great and interestin video good work

great works, without any political claim, just present the true (or infinitely approaching the true) history. learned a lot

非常用心的一部纪录片，历史串联了起来，感谢！

this video really deserved an award AMAZINGGGG!!

Awesome work!

I live in a coastal province of China, on the one hand, topic like this are very interesting for me, on the other hand, I can barely gather information about this type of topic other than reading books or anything other than literal materials. So I really admire your work of filming videos that is more realistic.

There’s no historical content done so well on the internet, with such depth, such passion, such animation! Really enjoyed it! Incredible, Incredible Content! Keep up the good work!

Very instructive,thank you😮

Very interesting. Thank you.

I'm learning so much from your videos, so much information that you just cannot find anywhere else in such an accessible form. Thank you!

Watching from Korea. Wishing your future production endeavors much success, neighbor.

Great video👍

I didn't expect this spiritual aspect, i'm amazed, great video!!

9.30pm after watching -Lhakar Sang- "Uniform Day" Tibetan dances LIVE from Chengdu, I realized my favorite Mongol youtuber have uploaded and the topic is How intertwined the Mongols and Tibetans are. Great job! Now watching this with a beer on hand so the documentary becomes more profound while watching it on Wednesday (if you're a Tibetan Buddhist, you know you know ) By the way - 15:40 do you think the Tanguts were a subset of the Tibetans?

Love the way you tell us these stories. I am not Chinese, Mongol or Tibetan yet hooked on to your videos to listen to, as you narrate them wonderfully.

Theres almost no content on this field! Thank you for creating it!

Amazing video. Keep up the good work! Subbed

You rock!, young man👏👍First time to see a documentary that goes so deep in finding the religious and political relationship between Tibetan and Mongol and Rulers. 蒙古人從軍事上征服了藏地，藏族人從精神上征服了蒙疆。本人在青海長大，如今已從事了四十年旅遊，其中最早的十多年是在青藏高原工作。把蒙古與西藏的政治、宗教、地理、歷史人物等諸多關係梳理出線條，一一道來，你是第一人。謝謝🤛👏🤝

I am from Ladakh(extension of the Tibetan plateau) which is now in India well to simply put it throughout the course of the video it seemed as if I was watching videos of ladakh through different lenses same people same clothes same culture seperated by vast distances and nationalities I think we still share the same spirit and yes after Buddhism was virtually eradicated from Mongolia it was fortold that arhat bakula Rinpoche would revived Buddhism in Mongolia , he was born in Ladakh this prophecy became a legend when the communist were destroying the monasteries and killing the monks well the prophecy did manifest itself when 20th bakula Rinpoche was India's ambassador to Mongolia and helped revive the religion

This video helped shed some light for me on the great curiosity I had about the fate of the Mongols, why did they fade from the modern era after having conquered the largest area in the world ever? Thank you for your amazing effort compiling this. There's very little known about the historical connections between the Central, Southern, and Eastern Asian regions(specifically the interactions between Tibetans, Mongolians, Nepalese, Chinese, etc., and the connections between the peoples of Tibeto-Burman language family). I haven't had the chance to learn about all the history of Buddhism and Hinduism but wanted to ask if you would ever consider making videos on one of the oldest forms of Buddhism(Newar Buddhism), which also has many connections with Tibetan Buddhists who actually first learned of Buddhism in the 7th century through their exchanges with the earlier Buddhist disciples from India and the Newars. (There's also a clan inside the Newar Buddhist community called the Shakya. I could totally be wrong about this but I've always wondered if they are related to or are the real life descendants of the kingdom from which the actual Shakyamuni Buddha was from! There is a Shakya kingdom shown in ancient Indian maps located in the general region where Buddha was found to be from and I've heard a story speculating that the Shakyas migrated into Kathmandu from this region but there's not much studies done on this topic). I myself am agnostic and don't observe any religion but have always found this history to be so fascinating, as something that everyone who admires Buddhism struggles with is how to incorporate this wonderful belief system into their lives in a way that is flexible to our modern lives. After all, we cannot all be monks or nuns and renounce worldly matters. So in the way of this topic it surprises me how *little* is known about the Newar Buddhism of Nepal. It would be fascinating for all history geeks if you made videos exploring the Newars and their take on the wisdoms of Buddha that I think fits more into the modern lives for the vast majority of us. By the way a fun fact: Remember you visited that giant white stupa in Miaoying temple of Beijing that you said a Nepalese artist Araniko built for the Yuan dynasty? Well that Araniko was initially sent by the Newar King Jayabhimdeva Malla to Tibet with the 5th leader of Sakya sect of Tibetan Buddhism Chogyal Phagpa to construct a golden stupa, initiated into monkhood there, was then sent on to work and teach in the court of emperor Kublai Khan(while Phagpa became the 1st imperial preceptor of Yuan dynasty) and led teams of artists and craftsmen to build several Pagoda structures in both China and Tibet. Pagoda structures were already taken to China from Kathmandu as early as the 7th century, which I suspect was the first cultural exchange in Asian history that transferred the pagoda architecture to East Asia from Nepal. It gets more interesting, the artist Araniko was Newar himself. Newars have been known as the greatest artisans and architects in all of the Himalayan societies, with Kathmandu compared to the creations of Italy and Persia and Newar cities termed as "Florence of the East". The artistic excellence of Newars was so greatly coveted that they were requested to bring their talents into their dynasties by Chinese emperors, Mongolian emperors, as well as Bhutanese Zhabdrungs, and the leaders of Tibetan Buddhism, thereby teaching their craft to the Bhutanese population unfamiliar with gold smith work and bronze work, and Chinese artisans. They left a lasting influence in the culture of Tibet, Mongolia, Bhutan, and China (and subsequently the far east in Japan and Korea where pagoda structures became prominent after China. Amongst the Newars there has been historically two major religions, Hinduism and Buddhism. It is also popularly known that in Nepal these two religions coexist alongside each other and even has incorporated elements from both that has long been practiced by Newars. I really see this mindset of syncretism as the way of the future. Learning from various beliefs and adding on to what we already know, which is also done by many dharmic faiths such as the biggest one of course Hinduism. The Buddhists of Newar ethnicity do not become monks or nuns but incorporate the various knowledge of the Buddha while simultaneously living a life more in equilibrium with modern times. The syncretic history of Newars includes traditions such as reincarnation culture similar to Tibetans and as you've taught us, of Mongolians for a while. But the reincarnation tradition in Newar culture was started as both a Buddhist and Hindu practice and is understood to symbolize the coexistence of both religions, (the Newar reincarnation tradition had received negative attention from western journalists in the early 2000s as the most popular of the avatars (there are multiple) is female and the specific myth of the goddess associated with the Royal Kumari Avatar requires their caretakers to ensure they do not bleed before natural menstruation, which explains why the Royal Kumari is not supposed to be walking outside the royal palace due to many dangers that may inflict wounds. However she does walk outside on carpets laid by her caretakers during festivals and has been playing inside the royal house with friends and family regularly). The Sino phobic elements in the west eagerly propped up the Tibetan issue for political gain and did not make any noise about the reincarnation and monkhood traditions of Tibetan Buddhism that traps the monk child/selected Dalai lama for life, but they were very noisy about the Kumari tradition where the Avatars only reign up until a certain age(with ritual duties as required during important days and festivals but also have access to education and enrichment) and resume a regular life with careers if they choose after their reign. It is another fascinating exchange of political ambitions between not only Tibet, Nepal, China, and Mongolia but now the West in its attempts to put itself in the forefront of the new world order. Religion and by its medium, culture and art, and the exoticism or denial of it is all determined by the political order that is current in any given time period and it's just so fascinating to see how different cultures and peoples interact with each other. Thanks for this video again!

Thanks for making such an amazing video, I watched it all over 2 days 😅

Thanks again for all your great efforts in showing the whole world this fascinating story!

Good to see you killing it bro! Been a long since since high school

It is only scratching the surface of the history iceberg. The untold story is many times greater than revealed in this video.

A great video which filled in many gaps for me, as my interests in the subject is vast. Thank you for this and can't wait to watch another.. be well...^_^

Absolutely amazing! I had zero knowledge about any of this, and this is extremely interesting.
