Religion plays an important role in the lives of the Changpas. They are devout buddhists, all of them. But while Buddhism preaches non-violence towards all living creatures, the Changpas raise their animals to be killed and sold off for meat.
So their lives are bit of a paradox and in this episode we will see how the Changpas try and balance these 2 aspects of their lives through prayers and rituals.

Dude You are way better than National Geographic...You have lived a very good life which many just desire everyday... Everyone loves to witness the lives of people this closely but actually very few actually end up doing something like this. You have not just got a subscriber today but also a fan. I will watch all your videos. I would just like to salute you dedication for your passion. Please let nothing stop you from filming like this not only in India but I would suggest you go cover whole world. I really salute you.... God bless you always...may you keep camping and hiking and documenting for 100's of years... Good job 👍

Though killing is strictly prohibited in buddhism but living in plateau above 4500 meter where no vegetation grows.... The only survival option left for the nomads of ladakh,Tibet and mongolia is relying on meat products.......but still nomads try as much as possible not to kill animals..... Hope people will understand this...

Narayan Bose Yeah brother it is just my way of conveying the voice of ladakh..which is most often neglected and whose geopolitical influence is largely undermined.....it is located on the border between pakistan and china... And most importantly it can serve as a india's gateway to central asia....the most famous historical route being leh to kashgar,hotan and from there to kyrgyszstan and uzbekistan...

It’s very intriguing that you showed the wheel of life in this video. One theory is that we are already in a pseudo hungry ghost realm, as we can can see that the society is consumed with consumerism. No matter how much junk one buys one is never satisfied, only hungers for more..... the greed has become greater than need and it is a bottomless bucket which can’t be filled while life is whiled away . Btw am from Ladakh, shamm side. Your videos do justice to the beauty of all the landscapes you have captured. Ladakh and spiti. Good luck!

And funnily even my Ladakhi friends did not understand all the concepts, they had to check with their parents and grandparents to get the info. It was amazing how some total strangers came forward to help me!

Thumbs up and Subscribed! Congratulations and thank you for the beautiful recording of a way of life that is so environmentally sustainable and respectful. Sadly it's slowly disappearing. They spoken sounds more of Tibetan dialect from Ngari than Ladhaki. Also can't help notice photo of HH Dalai Lama in their altar. I wonder how far this location is to the Tibetan border and also wonder how the way of life is across the border on the Tibetan side. I am afraid, China being super micro-manager has completely changed in the name of modernization on the other side. So in that respect kudos to India in respecting the local culture yet allowing children to get education in Leh and option to choose live the modern life.
