In August 2020, Gary Robbins set out to complete a mountain route in his backyard of Chilliwack, BC, covering 109 miles / 176 km of mountain terrain with over 33,000 ft / 10,000 metres of climbing and descent. I followed along with Garys adventure, both to document it as a filmmaker, and to help support him on his crew and as a pacer.
This was filmed on the ancestral, traditional, and unceded territory of the Stó:lō People.

Im an ultra-distance trail runner based in Vancouver, BC. From the mountain ranges of Canada and the USA, to the Alps, the Andes, and the Himalayas, I’ve been fortunate to have the opportunity to pursue adventures around the world.
I was giving a lecture in a yoga club when someone said, «Prabhupadas just arrived in Paris and youre supposed to go right now.» I said, «Ill finish my lecture.» «No,» he said, «we want to go right now. We dont want to miss it.» I said, «Well finish the lecture. Prabhupada would want us to finish the lecture. This is our duty.» So I finished the lecture in 10 or 15 minutes and I said to the audience, «My spiritual master, a pure devotee of the Lord, has just arrived in Paris. If any of you want to, you can come with us and meet him. Can any of you come?»
At the back a man in uniform raised his hand. He said, «Yes, my family and I will come. This is the first time weve been to a yoga centre, but what youve said is interesting and Id like to meet the person who explained this to you — your guru.» I said, «Sir, who are you?» He said, «Im an admiral in the French Navy.» I said, «Youre an admiral in the French Navy? All right.» He said, «Dont worry, Ill get off duty.» I said, «Well, well leave in about a half an hour.» He said, «No problem,» and made a few phone calls. He got off work, his wife packed a few belongings and got their tow kids, and within a short time they were back. We jumped in our sankirtan van and went off for the 13-hour drive to Paris with the French admiral in tow behind us.
Prabhupada had just started speaking when we walked in. I was so happy I could bring this person to my spiritual master. The etiquette is you bring your guru some dakshin, some flowers or fruits, and here we were bringing an admiral in the French Navy. I was bursting with pride to be the disciple of my guru and, «this is my alms, Ive brought this person for you to preach to.»
Prabhupada saw the admiral, and «Ohhh,» he beamed. I asked the admiral and his wife, «You sit down here in front of Srila Prabhupada.» They were respectful. They sat down and I sat next to them and told Prabhupada, «Srila Prabhupada, we were doing a program in Corsica, and when we heard of your arrival, I asked if anyone wanted to come and this admiral ...»
Prabhupada said, «Oh, very nice,» and began explaining how the Bhagavad-gita was spoken to Arjuna, who was a warrior. He described what brahmanas, kshatriyas, vaishyas, and sudras do and how everyones focused on offering their service to Krishna. Prabhupada said, «Even though you are a warrior, you can also be a devotee of God. You can use your work to serve God.» The admiral was drinking in every word of it, «Oh, yes.» Then Prabhupada started speaking of reincarnation and karma, which was new to the admiral, but he listened carefully. Prabhupada preached to him for forty-five minutes and in the end the admiral said, «What do I call you?» I said, «Call him Srila Prabhupada.» He said, «Srila Prabhupada, this is very interesting for me. I dont know whats happened. My wife wanted to go to a yoga club and now Im sitting here in front of you, a very special person. If I want to understand this philosophy, what should I read?» Prabhupada said, «Bhagavad-gita.» One of the servants got a French Bhagavad-gita. Prabhupada said, «This is our French Gita. Read this.» The admiral looked at it — it was a big book. He said, «I may not have time to read the whole book — of all the chapters, which one should I concentrate on?» Prabhupada said, «Read the Ninth Chapter and then youll understand everything about Krishna.» The man took the Bhagavad-gita that he received from Prabhupada and left. We were so young in those days, I didnt get his address or telephone number and he was gone. I thought, «Boy, I wish I had gotten his contact information.»
Years later I was distributing books near the mayors office in Paris when there was a big function. I saw a group of Navy personnel who were part of the function and who saw how Id been roughly thrown out. And who did I see? The admiral in his uniform. He went to the police and said, «Let this boy come.» I thought, «Oh, this is a good opportunity.» I said, «Admiral, its good to see you again,» and I gave a few books to the people around there. The admiral said, «Yeah. Not a day goes by I dont remember your spiritual teacher. Not a week goes by I dont read the Ninth Chapter of Bhagavad-gita.» I said, «Thank you very much,» and we shook hands. I thought it was Krishnas mercy that this man met a pure devotee and that he would have the opportunity to meet Prabhupada again.
Dear devotees: Todays lecture [ Friday, October 2 ] is entitled «The Emperor of Pujaris.» We will visit Srngara-vata, within the forest of Srngaravana. It is there that Krsna would ornament and decorate Srimati Radharani, to the delight of all Her gopi friends. Inspired by that pastime, the cowherd boys also decorated Krsna and Balarama in that sacred place! 3:30 India time on my YouTube channel.
Yes there are many Hare Krishnas in China, but they are not public about it. It’s forbidden to chant on the streets and even kirtan in houses has to be very quiet. The government is less restrictive than it was and the numbers are growing steadily, but I don’t see a dedicated temple being built anytime soon. A good number of Buddhist temples were destroyed by the Communists so they aren’t likely to sanction any new ones soon. To fill the gap that atheistic communism creates the government is encouraging interest in Confucianism as it contains valuable teachings without acknowledging a Supreme Person.

Каждая серия состоит из двух историй. Все они основаны на реальных событиях, и были лишь реконструированы при помощи съемочной группы и талантливой игры непрофессиональных актеров.
Мы пытались не вносить в истории свои правки (поскольку намеренно таких вещей не придумаешь), стараясь пересказать их так, как услышали от реальных участников описываемых событий либо от экстрасенсов, работавших с участниками. Мы хотели показать эти события именно так, как их увидели и пережили конкретные люди. Возможно, поэтому зрителю наши истории могут показаться местами чересчур страшными, иногда странными или смешными. Однако именно такой и является наша жизнь.
В проекте задействованы различные специалисты, которые анализируют происходящие в кадре события, и высказывают свое мнение. Здесь и психологи, и экстрасенсы, и биоэнергетики, и врачи, и даже ведьмы. Каждый из них имеет свое собственное видение происходящего. Однако мы не ставим перед собой задачу перессорить наших экспертов — они лишь озвучивают свои мнения. Вывод о том, кто прав, и действительно ли в основе рассказанных историй лежит мистика, или же результат самовнушения, — делает сам зритель.

МОЩНЫЙ ФИЛЬМ ПРО СЕКРЕТНЫЕ ВОЙСКА! Городские шпионы! ВСЕ СЕРИИ! Русский фильм
Команда Андрея Шпагина расследует заговор крупного преступного синдиката по нелегальной добыче и контрабанде неограненных алмазов. Сложный преступный механизм под личиной солидного легального бизнеса. Городские шпионы — люди, которых мы не видим. С тысячью лиц в рукаве и без права на ошибку…
Родоначальник танковых войск Третьего Рейха — Хайнц Гудериан — в 1933-м году на полигоне Куммерсдорф продемонстрировал Гитлеру новые танки Т-1. Бронированные машины и их возможности привели в настоящий восторг фюрера, он воскликнул: «Вот это мне и нужно!». По его мнению, танки способны обеспечить успех в будущей войне. Советские военные также делали ставку на этот вид техники. Причем теоретики и практики РККА уже к концу 20-х годов детально проработали различные тактические приемы применения танков. И в этом направлении военной науки СССР опережал Германию. Вот только гусеничных машин, соответствующих уровню развития техники того времени, у Красной Армии не было. Советские инженеры должны были в кратчайшие сроки создать их и обеспечить своей стране военное преимущество.
