Tibetan Sky Burial

Tibetan Sky Burial In the high mountains of Tibet, where trees don't grow, natural resources scarce, and the land is harsh, Tibetan Buddhists do not bury their dead, nor waste precious resources cremating the body. From dust to dust, flesh to flesh, nothing is wasted. Human body flesh makes precious food for the vultures. Tibetan Buddhists feed their dead to the vultures. This is good karma.

Into Tsangpo Gorge

Into Tsangpo Gorge It's the cradle of Shangri-la, and one of the deepest river gorges on earth. It's a fortress guarding sacred waterfalls, and a cauldron of savage whitewater and unrunnable rapids.

They were either going to die—or emerge transformed. User: RabidMadness May 24, 2009 8:33 PM
