Description
A Ritual Journey Around Bon Sacredness in Dolpo
This DVD is a non-profit project that originated with the intent to present the first ever integral account of the ritual pilgrimage of the Chöd to a wider audience. The images have been generously given by the population of the remote area of Southern Dolpo in Nepal. The words of Professor Chögyal Namkhai Norbu Rinpoche and other eminent teachers of the Tibetan bon tradition give this film a fascinating and previously unpublished view of the symbolic and spiritual Universes that are remote in appearance only…
The funds collected through the distribution and promotion of this DVD will be given to Asia Onlus, Shang Shung Institute and Tapriza NGO.
