  • Legend tells of a utopian kingdom hidden among the towering mountains of inner Asia. A paradise on Earth, yet a place apart. A place of spiritual contentment and eternal life. A place that’s become known to the West as Shangri-La. For century’s romantics, adventurers and the devout risked their lives searching for this heaven on Earth. Many perished in the quest. Those who returned told of a journey through hostile lands, of crossing treacherous mountain passes & desert gorges in their search for a valley where people live for hundreds of years. To this day its whereabouts remains a mystery...

    As an anthropologist and archaeologist and sociologist, I find this to be an Exquisite Taste of The Human Condition to experience in the utmost precipices of cultural relativity. It Embraces a great many cultural aspects of the region and in every aspect, is its own Shangri-La. Props on a fantastically produced documentary of one possible View and one of the many intricacies of the aspects of seeking heaven on Earth in the realms of human abstract thought.

      well-put. The interactions & relations we establish - w our fellow humans , during the too-short , succinct window of time which we each get to live out our lives here on Earth in 21st century . Humanity ,empathy & compassion are essential to our survival as species & these are the focus points for new generation to not contend & thstv think 'normal' the de-socialization by way of technology / social media which they don't seem to know is having these affects upon them. It seems , objectively, that new children being born & the quality / character of their selves are being mass-groomed to be alone & not procreate . IMHO, that decomposes established, societal roots & directing supposed impartial Apps services to 'build' interactive networks of acquaintances but thru real, 1:1 human interaction instead of on phones seems hyper necessary . This is destroying the way we find partners & spouses; that has direct effects on the population's youth sector = having less young people will result in an easier military to dominate down the road when our population has more above 50 people than sub-50 yrs old persons defending it.

    So this is why Hitler was interested in this place in the Himalaya's because these people has blonde hair blue eyes he thought they were traces of the Arian Race and while there he found the Count of St. Germain who promised him immortality but it turned out to be ordinary water. Hitler did die and the count of St. Germain survived but the soul never truly dies we all come back and the reincarnated form that once was Hitler stills remembers that bedrail. A man by the name Richard Chanfray claim to be the count of St. Germain but faked his death in 1983. There are many people he could be my best guess is a singer by the name Drake Milligan who sings with an Elvis Style Tone and looks a lot like the count but younger however he has been known to look younger and appear slightly different. There voices are similar if you compare there songs. Yes Richard Chanfray could sing and also like Drake Milligan was a Elvis fan and dressed in jean jacket and paints if you do your research. I know this because I remember it.

      bro that cursed old man was facepalming lmao. that shaman ritual is pagan as fuck (probably not actually pagan but you you know, pantheon polytheistic ritualistic etc. he did say pagan in the video so maybe it is). amazing to think there are still cultures out there. even more amazing that it's caught on camera.
