What is love? A journey through the heart | Mia Hansson | TEDxDouglas


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.

Mt.Kailash Inner Kora: the Closest Way to Feel Lord of Shiva (I Tasted Mt.Kailash Again)


#mountkailash #kailash #lordofshiva #nandikora #tibet
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.

HH Radhanath Swami at Radha Kund (1/2) (Vrindavan Yatra 2004)


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.
