This talk was given at a local TEDx event, produced independently of the TED Conferences. What is love indeed?

Born to parents from two different continents, Mia grew up and worked in Europe, Africa and South East Asia. Even while helping her nuclear physicist father and geneticist mother at work, Mia had a hunch that there was more to life than science alone. Obsessed with finding the answer to the question of love she travelled through Tibet, studied jungle survival with Bruce Parry in Borneo, worked as a model in Paris, a journalist in Bangkok, and a human rights researcher in the Middle East, before going to live for a year at a Zen monastery. Finally, she found the answer — with unexpected results. Now a writer about spiritual life in the real world and training to be a counsellor, Mia’s work has been featured in the Guardian, the BBC, The Huffington Post, Time Out, and as Editor to the Buddhist Society. She has an MA in Comparative Literature, three post graduate degrees and a Millennium Award from Jon Snow.

About TEDx, x = independently organized event In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)

«Have you ever had a gut feeling or butterflies in your stomach? Has hunger ever changed your mood? Our bellies and brains are physically and biochemically connected in a number of ways, meaning the state of our intestines can alter the way our brains work and behave, giving a whole new meaning to Food for thought.

As a nutritionist, microbiologist and neuroscientist, Ruairi Robertson is passionate about the link between our bellies and brains. His research is examining how our intestines and the microbes within them can influence both physical and mental health, and most importantly how our diets influence this relationship. Ruairi has travelled the world researching food, and believes it is the key to global public health. Ruairi is a PhD student in University College Cork in Ireland and current Fulbright Scholar (2015/16) to Harvard University.

Герой выпуска – журналист, телеведущий, писатель Владимир Познер. На встречу с мэтром журналистики пришло много детей из журналистских кружков. Их интересовало, какой видится Познеру журналистика будущего, какие ошибки совершают молодые журналисты, как им предстоит приспосабливаться к реальности, в которой интернет конкурирует с телевидением. Владимир Познер не давал никаких футуристических прогнозов, напротив, заверил детей, что, несмотря на технологические прорывы, профессия журналиста остается неизменной в своей основе. По теории Познера, журналистике нельзя научиться, к ней можно только прийти с жизненным опытом. Лучше всего с таким богатым и наполненным невероятными событиями, как у самого Владимира Владимировича. Познер рассказал, как учил русский язык, какие кошмары мучают его во сне, что он сам считает своими достижениями и чего так и не смог себе простить.

Из военной службы можно извлечь много пользы для того, чтобы добиться успеха в будущем и стать богатым.

Главный герой, Сергей Иванович Крымов, руководит туристической фирмой. Живет он в собственном особнячке в пригороде Москвы, воспитывает ребенка от первого брака. С ними живет также и сестра Сергея, Валерия, синий чулок, дама строгих правил, пытающаяся выглядеть утонченной особой. У Валерии сварливый характер и скверная привычка всех поучать, которая порой доводит домашних до зубовного скрежета.
Сергей Иванович живет в гражданском браке с красавицей Светланой. Вот к ней-то из Уральской глубинки и приезжает мама. Антонина Петровна едет в столицу, чтобы наконец-то устроить личную жизнь своей дочери. Ее совершенно не устраивает тот факт, что Сергей и Светлана живут не расписавшись.
С приездом дорогой мамы жизнь перестает казаться обычной и пресной. Все свои деревенские привычки теща пытается перенести на столичную жизнь. И правда, разве зеленая лужайка у дома — это рационально? Нет, конечно, вместо нее там будут расти помидоры! А как можно не убедиться лично, что любимый зять работает в приличной компании?
Естественно, Валерия не намерена терпеть у себя в доме Антонину Петровну, женщину простую, с незамысловатыми манерами, и она объявляет ей войну. Но поле боя всегда остается за находчивой тещей

The Ukraine Yatra is one of the most successful in ISKCON with over 15,000 devotees. We first visited Kharkiv where we participated in an amazing Ratha Yatra and then went on to Kiev, the capitol, where we had darshan of Radha Madhava in our movement’s biggest temple in the country. There we had several days of kirtan and lectures in an ocean of blissful devotees!

What is the daily life of a Tibetan monk? This is one of the most intriguing aspects when we talk about Tibetan plateau.

In this video, let’s have a glimpse of how a monk’s daily life is like in Tibet, which is shown as we followed a head monk, who lives in the Jhoden monastery, about three hours driving east of Lhasa.

He leads a fairly peaceful and simple life. His daily schedule consists of morning Buddha offering, meditation, praying for the peace and harvest of the villages around his monastery and night chanting.

You may find they are living a simple and happy life, but it’s not easy. They need keep pursuing their Buddhist study, and praying for the blessings of Goddess of Mercy.

From the early morning to the late night, see how he will enjoy the day. We hope you will enjoy the video and let us know what you think below.

How long have you been away from your hometown?

For me, it’s almost 25 years since I left my childhood village.

Today’s video is back to my childhood village, see how it has changed over the past 25 years and also experience the real life in the Tibetan countryside.

Actually, my parents’ house had collapsed about ten years ago because none of us lived here and reparied the house. So I could only went back to my uncle’s house.

My uncle’s house remains almost the same as before. I even took a nap in my childhood bed.

Like all the other Tibetan stone houses, my uncle’s home consists of bedrooms, a typical Tibetan style dining room, a separate praying chapel, a storeroom, and a very Tibetan toilet (an open-air toilet).

Among these rooms, the praying chapel is the most special one in a Tibetan house. Every Tibetan home has a praying chapel, where the family can do their daily prayers in their free time.

Though there is a modern refrigerator, my uncle’s family still kept the original storeroom to keep air-dried yak meat and other items.

I was amazed to see that they still had their old habits, and it was gratifying to see some new changes, like the new TV and tap-water pipes, because my uncle and my nephews could enjoy better living conditions than I had back then.

Collecting yak dung, doing kora around the nearby ancient stupa, visiting the Jhoden Monastery in the village…these were all parts of my daily life since I lived with my uncle in this small Tibetan village.

I would like to share the memory of my hometown with all of you through this video. Hoping we could meet together in Tibet and let me take you to my lovely hometown.

In the low of religion, when you finish 13 out kora around Mount Kailash then you are allowed to do the Mount Kailash Inner Kora, also known as Nandi Kora in India. It is said that only by completing 13 out koras can you cleanse yourself of all your sins. So it means that only people without sin are permitted to do the inner kora.

Of course, this is only a constraint for religious believers. On this particular trip, I met a young lady. As a person of no faith, why did she choose this strenuous trekking route, why did she come to Kailash, and why did she come here?

“I just heard about Mount Kailash a long time ago. During this difficult year, I think just come to see it. Without any religion or anyone force me. I just want to see and feel it by myself. And I never imagine that I could get so far. I’m so lucky. I can’t describe the whole trip. Every day is amazing. Every single person I met on the way, every single second I spent here, just perfect, makes the whole trip. ”

So it seems that the power of the sacred Mount Kailash is not only for the pilgrims, but even for ordinary people. Mount Kailash inspires people in its own way and brings blessing to them.

As someone who has over 10 years of experience as a Tibetan guide and has been here 59 times, I will share some trekking tips with you here.

Started from Serlung Monastery, which is 5 kilometers away from Darchen Town, the inner kora of Mount Kailash is 34 kilometers long. The lowest port of Kailash Inner Kora is 5300 meters above sea level, while the highest point is 5900 meters above sea level.

It is important to know how to stay healthy at such a high altitude.

Of course, physical health is the primary condition. Even I, a Tibetan, would feel some strain trekking here. So before you decide to take Kailash inner kora, make sure you do a good physical exercise to make sure your body can withstand a long trek in the plateau.

Also is to consult your doctor and tell him/her that you are going to travel to Tibet. In my experience, Acetazolamide (Diamox) is the most effective medication to prevent altitude sickness. However, you have to follow your doctors advice and carry some medications that are effective for you to prevent altitude sickness.

A pair of comfortable hiking shoes is also a must. The inner kora path is almost always rocky and very difficult to walk, and you will need to climb to reach the 13 Golden Chortens and Saptarishi Cave on the last section of the inner kora of Mount Kailash. This is the most dangerous section of the inner kora to reach the highest and also the end part of the kora. A good pair of hiking shoes will make you safer while climbing the rocks.

You can follow my video to see how rocky the road is and have a close look at the holy Mount Kailash.

Radhanath Swami was born in Chicago in 1950. Radhanath Swamis childhood name was Richard Slavin; Radhanath Swami was given the name Radhanath Swami after he entered the renounced order. In his teenage years, the longing for knowledge about God lead Radhanath Swami on a journey throughout Europe and the Middle East, during which he undertook a careful study of the scriptures of Christianity, Judaism, and Islam. This journey ultimately led him to India, where Radhanath Swami lived for several years, met Srila Prabhupada, and came to reside in Vrindavan. Radhanath Swami has recently documented the details of his travels in his autobiography, The Journey Home(Autobiography of an American Swami by Radhanath Swami.) For the pleasure of Srila Prabhupada, Radhanatha Swami moved from Vrindavan to New Vrindavan, where he served for eight years with astounding devotion and austerity. He then began college preaching in America, and in 1987, began to assist in the development of preaching projects in India, a service which he is doing to the present day. His dedicated efforts in congregation preaching developed the Sri Sri Radha Gopinath Mandir at Chowpatty, Bombay and the ISKCON Belgaum temple. Under his auspices, preaching programmes are developing in Kolhapur, Nasik, and Nigidi. Each year, Radhanatha Swami takes thousands of devotees on pilgrimage to holy places of the Vaishnava tradition.
