Kailash ~ ~ We are all on the way to pilgrimage

Over the past few years, negative rumors about false living Buddhas and Rinpoche have continued, and of course there are also true practitioners at the Great Compassion Monastery in Haicheng, Liaoning Province, who do not have merit boxes, hold the precepts of money, eat one meal in the middle of the day, and beg for food on the way to the foot. However, if you want to talk about the overall devotion to religion, you still have to look at Tibet, look at the Tibetans on the pilgrimage in the movie "Kailash"~ This is also the truth of "to know whether the teacher is good or not, look at his students to know".

Daisoji Temple Assight Monk Pilgrimage Beggar

I remember the weekend of July 9, 2017, when I watched the long-awaited blockbuster movie Kailash. After returning home, my heart could not be calm for a long time, and I was always haunted by the white snow-capped mountains, the simple Tibetans, the stirring and heart-pounding songs, and the endless long head. It was as if I was also in the crowd, also on the long pilgrimage road, and also prostrating my head...

Kailash ~ ~ We are all on the way to pilgrimage

This is a film that looks very ordinary and monotonous. It tells the story of Nyima Zedui, a villager in the ancient village of "Pu village" in the hinterland of Tibet, who decided to fulfill his father's last wish after his father's death, and led 10 people in the village who had the same idea (including the elderly in their 70s and 80s, pregnant women, butchers, children... Go on a pilgrimage to Lhasa, go to Kailash to turn the mountain, and fulfill everyone's wish of making a pilgrimage once in a lifetime and prostrating 100,000 long heads. Kailash in Ali, Tibet, is unusual, not only as one of the four sacred mountains of Tibetan Buddhism (the other three are the Meili Snow Mountain in Diqing, Yunnan, the Golo Animaqing in Qinghai, and gadaw Kyaw Wo in Yushu in Qinghai), but also in Tibetan meaning "Buddha in the Mountains" ("Gang" means "mountain", "Rinpoche" also means "Rinpoche", that is, "Buddha"), which is the undisputed head of the sacred mountain in Tibetan Buddhism, and has an extremely high status in the hearts of Tibetans.

On the way, they experienced various situations such as pregnant women giving birth, traffic accidents, exhaustion of entanglements, and the death of the elderly, which lasted for a year and hiked more than 2,000 kilometers, and finally arrived at the sacred mountain of Kailash.

This is a film full of tibetan snow scenery. There are shiyun ~ ~ in Tibet, in Ali: there is a sacred mountain, his name is Kailash; there is a blue sky, she is a blue sky, a blue lake; there is a letter, she is a devout pilgrimage heart.

Kailash ~ ~ We are all on the way to pilgrimage

This movie shows the beauty and mystery of the snowy plateau, the colorful prayer flags, the clouds in front of you, the wildflowers that spread all over the mountains, the snow-capped peaks, the beautiful Gesang flowers, the herds of yaks... It was a different feeling from the ordinary interior scenery, and it was really desirable. Even if I have been to Tibet before, I always want to see Lhasa, Shigatse, Namtso and other places I have never been before.

Kailash ~ ~ We are all on the way to pilgrimage

This is a film that shows the piety of faith. In our ordinary life, there may be plans, tasks, goals that must be guaranteed, and goals to strive for, but this can only be regarded as life goals and ideals at most, and it is far lower than faith. With the pursuit of "prostrating one's head and long insight" in their hearts, and with the ideal of "there are many things that are not to be done now, and may not be able to do in the future", for a year, 11 people repeated an action every day: put the wooden board in their hands on the top of their heads, chests, waists, and then put them on the ground to slide, kowtow, get up, continue, and continue... This is the power of faith, the highest state of human nature, otherwise who can do it?

More than 2,000 kilometers, no matter the wind or rain, no matter the creek road, a series of actions are fast and skilled, without hesitation. The loneliness and loneliness along the way are all in this repetition again and again. There are no economic benefits, no requirements from superiors, and some are just a sincere heart, which is the belief of ignoring suffering to make one's heart at ease, this is the real forge ahead, this is a persistent but calm heart that others cannot understand and cannot do.

The road is at the foot, the road is on the body, and it is necessary to prostrate for more people to go on a pilgrimage... How well said!

This is a film that understands the happiness, difficulties, gains and losses of life. 10 ordinary Tibetans from the same village and a pregnant woman set off from home together and prostrated 2,000 kilometers to Go on a pilgrimage to Kailash, a trip that experienced life, death, and hardships on the road (including eating and sleeping, including wrecking and pushing, running away from the road fare, working and kowtowing on behalf of everyone).

The first time I saw a child when it was just born and cut the umbilical cord, it was no different from a small animal like a lamb; and the old man who led the way with a banner on the first day died quietly near the end, the body was buried in the sky, and the companions piled stones on the side of the road to commemorate it, just like a fruit returned to the earth. Material happiness, the thickness of life, life, old age, illness and death, in the vast world, are actually so casual and small.

In the eyes of our self-proclaimed modern people, we can't see clearly and can't let go of things in our hearts, ordinary Tibetan herders with faith have long understood the true meaning! Or what would be the herdsman in the film who spent a year prostrating his head for more than 2,000 kilometers?

Kailash ~ ~ We are all on the way to pilgrimage

Listening to Park Shu's theme song "NO FEAR IN MY HEART" and the interlude repeatedly, the song sang so religiously and so excitingly, it was really fascinating:

If you make a wish,

Please follow the pace you made your wish.

The most important thing is when you kowtow,

Have a pious heart.

There is no end in sight,

We are all on the way to the pilgrimage.

Some people say that this is not a difficult road to walk down by perseverance, but a glorious road that must be taken by faith. People who have had a certain experience will think how correct this sentence is!
