A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami describes the process of chanting the Maha Mantra as follows: Krishna consciousness is not an artificial imposition on the mind; this consciousness is the original energy of the living entity.… As such anyone can take part in the chanting without any previous qualification.
A documentary on the Glories of Govardhan Hill by Bhakti Caitanya Swami
The Vedic scriptures proclaim that the glories of Lord Krishna are unlimited and eternal and no one is able to reach the end of them. In the same way, who can fully describe the splendid glories of Sri Giriraja-Govardhana, the best servant of the Lord and at the same time non-different from the Lord Himself? To protect his dear vrajavasis from Indras wrath, Sri Krishna held the Hill on the small finger of His divine hand for seven days. The area of Govardhan is full of wonderful forests, lakes, caves, waterfalls, jeweled paths, platforms and pavilions. Lords most intimate pastimes places — Sri Radha-kunda and Sri Syama-kunda are located at the foot of the Hill. The Vaishnava acharyas and saints left us a great treasure of scriptures, describing the wonderful pastimes, which are going on eternally in the shade of Giriraja. Here are but a few drops of this nectar.
The holy place known as Mathura is spiritually superior to Vaikuntha, the transcendental world, because the Lord appeared there. Superior to Mathura-Puri is the transcendental forest of Vrndavana because of Krsnas rasa-lila pastimes. And superior to the forest of Vrndavana is Govardhana Hill, for it was raised by the divine hand of Sri Krsna and was the site of His various loving pastimes. And, above all, the superexcellent Sri Radha-kunda stands supreme, for it is overflooded with the ambrosial nectarean prema of the Lord of Gokula, Sri Krsna. Where, then, is that intelligent Person who is unwilling to serve this divine Radha-kunda, which is situated at the foot of Govardhana Hill?
(Sri Upadesamrita, verse 9)
«Of all the devotees this Govardhana Hill is the best! Or my friends this Hill supplies Krishna and Balarama, along with their calves, cows and cowherd friends, with all the necessities: water for drinking, very soft grass, caves, fruits, flowers and vegetables. In this way the Hill offers respects to the Lord. Being touched by the lotus feet of Krishna and Balarama, the hill appears very jubilant».
(SB 10.21.18).
Bhutans other name is «The Happy Kingdom.» The small Himalayan country has one foot in the distant past and the other in the digital age. Its quite a balancing act for Bhutans citizens.
No other country has recently undergone more radical change than Bhutan. The millennium brought television, the internet and democratization to the last Himalayan kingdom almost overnight. The capital Thimphu has become one of South Asias fastest growing cities. At the same time, just a few kilometers to the north, 20 thousand nomads still live from herding yak on the high plains of the Himalayas. This documentary tells of the challenges these people face.
We meet young Chewang, who often has to leave his family for months and trek to heights above five thousand meters in search of the caterpillar fungus, a fabled medicinal mushroom. We also follows the journey of five-year-old Doryi, who is separated from his poverty-stricken family when they send him to a monastery. Meanwhile, the committed organic farmer Choki is trying to bring the advantages of modern life to her village. And 73-year-old bowman Ap Chimi is finding the modern world quite a challenge, so hes decided to compete in his last archery tournament to show youngsters in the village that he can still hit the bulls eye as easily as they do.
This documentary takes viewers on a trip through a time that mirrors Western development in the last century. The loss of a communal life in harmony with nature is juxtaposed against the gains made through globalization. Director Irja von Bernstorff, who has made her home in the Happy Kingdom, gives us a unique peek behind the countrys tourist façade to reveal what makes the wondrous world of Bhutan so special.

Алтай. Катунский заповедник. Гора Белуха. Приглашаем зрителей посмотреть новый фильм о высокогорном Катунском заповеднике. Он расположен в центре самого мощного современного оледенения на юге Сибири. Здесь, у подножия Белухи – самой высокой сибирской вершины, из-под ледяного панциря ледника Геблера рождается великая река Катунь. Верховья Катуни – территория неприступных гор с остроконечными пиками и сложными перевалами. Здесь стремительные бурные реки дают жизнь мощным водопадам – Россыпному, Солоухе, Поперечному, Казинихинским и многим другим. Между высоких гор лежат бирюзовые чаши озер. Среди них – жемчужины Алтая, озера Верхнее Мультинское, Поперечное, Изумрудное и, конечно, Тайменье. Хвойная тайга и редколесья сменяются разнотравными альпийскими лугами,
тундрами и болотами с богатым миром зверей, птиц и редких растений. Познакомьтесь с непростой работой сотрудников заповедника. Они несут службу в условиях труднодоступности, удаленности и сложного
рельефа. Каждый день на службе у природы сопряжен с риском и экстримом. Здесь трудятся люди отважные и преданные своему делу. Такие, какими и должны быть настоящие хранители заповедной природы.
Светлана Усанова, автор фильма:
«Первый раз я побывала в Катунском заповеднике в 2012 году. С тех пор я горела мечтой пройти его горными тропами к самым труднодоступным уголкам Катунского хребта. Хотелось своими глазами увидеть, как рождается
река Катунь. Наконец нам представилась возможность не только побывать в заповеднике, но и рассказать о нём зрителям в своем фильме. Кинокомпания «Ирбисфильм» приступила к съемкам в 2018 г. Мы совершили две экспедиции: в июне – июле и в августе – сентябре общей
продолжительностью в один месяц. Вместе с сотрудниками заповедника мы поднимались вверх по Катуни на водометном катере, пробивали путь по курумам, густым кустарниковым зарослям и болотам на квадроциклах,
совершали многокилометровые переходы верхом на лошадях и пешком, штурмовали горные реки и перевалы. Признаюсь, было непросто, но очень интересно! Природа здесь по-настоящему дикая и девственная. Очень важно, что на фоне тотального сведения лесов, истребления зверей, птиц, рыбных запасов и редких видов растений в Катунском заповеднике сохраняются естественные природные ландшафты со всеми их обитателями. Необходимо
донести до зрителя мысль о том, как жизненно важно сохранить окружающую нас природу – общий дом всех живых существ. Идеи фильма мы постарались донести не только с помощью видеоряда с живописными пейзажами гор, рек, озер и водопадов, а также сюжетами из жизни «хранителей» заповедника. Они гармонично сочетаются с музыкой
талантливого композитора Александра Трифонова и завораживающим голосом мастера горлового пения Болота Байрышева. А закадровый текст звучит в исполнении замечательного диктора Василия Романова». Заповедник у истоков Катуни. Алтай. Катунский заповедник. Altai. Гора Белуха. Сибирь. Река Катунь.

From street food to mom and pop restaurants, we want to show you the best and most authentic food we find on our travels.
The film is about a unique expedition of two Russians and one Italian who climbed to the top of the treacherous Nanga Parbat (8125 meters) with no oxygen to descend from its top on skis.
Documentary film about extreme ski descend from killer mountain.
Nanga Parbat is one of the top three most dangerous for climbing eight-thousanders. The mortality rate of this peak is almost 23%. From among climbers who dared to challenge it, each fifth climber lost his life. The legendary Reinhold Messner lost his younger brother here — he is going to talk about his attitude to this mountain in the film.
The whole life of the members of the Russian-Italian expedition (Vitaly Lazo www.facebook.com/vitaly.lazo, Anton Pugovkin www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100014032001161 and Cala Cimenti www.facebook.com/cala.cimenti ) can be divided into 2 periods: before and after Nanga Parbat. The climb to the top was a real challenge. The point was not only about the exhausting ascent without oxygen with heavy backpacks and skis on their shoulders, not in avalanches and icefalls. The main problem was communication within the team. Athletes worked for the first time as a team. Sleeping in a cramped tent, annoying habits, language barrier did not facilitate the beginning of their friendship.
The situation was corrected by Nanga Parbat itself: after all, only with the coordinated work of the team, full trust to the professional skills and moral principles of each other, it became possible to conquer the killer mountain.
