Samsara
|
00:01:20 |
Sonam! |
00:01:44 |
Oh no, not again! |
00:02:44 |
Ladakh, India. |
00:02:46 |
Altitude: 4500m and more... |
00:06:13 |
How long? |
00:06:16 |
Three years, three months, |
00:07:38 |
Tashi, |
00:07:40 |
we are taking you back. |
00:08:17 |
Tashi, |
00:08:19 |
it is time. |
00:12:02 |
Tashi, you pushed it too far. |
00:12:41 |
"How can one prevent a drop of water |
00:13:22 |
Apo is back... |
00:13:38 |
Kala! |
00:15:38 |
- Now, I must leave. |
00:15:42 |
No! I want to go home! |
00:15:54 |
Tashi... |
00:15:57 |
did you cry |
00:16:39 |
Le head lama, |
00:16:43 |
will be performing a |
00:16:51 |
He asks that you attend. |
00:18:59 |
So prince Siddhartha |
00:19:05 |
and luxurious life... |
00:19:08 |
And from his golden chariot... |
00:19:11 |
saw suffering |
00:19:21 |
Thus one night, |
00:19:24 |
prince Siddhartha |
00:19:26 |
decided to leave |
00:19:30 |
Princesse Yashodhara, |
00:19:32 |
and his son, Rahul, and go away. |
00:19:37 |
He left his son? |
00:19:40 |
Well, yes. |
00:19:42 |
Because he wanted to find out |
00:19:57 |
I want to go home! |
00:20:28 |
Tashi, Rinpochey is here! |
00:21:25 |
After twenty years studying |
00:21:27 |
Lama Tashi completed |
00:21:31 |
three years of meditation, |
00:21:35 |
Truly this is the |
00:21:52 |
His Holiness Dhyan Rinpochey |
00:21:56 |
has therefore awarded |
00:22:01 |
the precious Khenpo degree |
00:22:05 |
He's a very good monk! |
00:22:43 |
Kala, you monkey! |
00:22:44 |
Tashi... You spoke! |
00:22:48 |
It was him! |
00:23:01 |
Kala, do you hear me? |
00:23:06 |
Long live Rinpochey! |
00:23:10 |
For Tashi the precious degree of Khenpo... |
00:23:15 |
but for Kala... nothing! |
00:23:18 |
Jhulley! Tashi Delek! |
00:24:07 |
Hail! |
00:24:09 |
Hail! |
00:24:12 |
to the Four Noble Truths! |
00:25:46 |
Who is he? |
00:25:47 |
Tashi. |
00:26:14 |
Hurry up! |
00:27:17 |
Can you tell me what's going on? |
00:27:23 |
Apo, bring Lama Tashi with you |
00:27:28 |
He needs some fresh air. |
00:27:41 |
Tashi, next time you wish to modify a performance, |
00:28:49 |
Welcome! |
00:29:16 |
Jhuley. |
00:29:21 |
Where is Tenzin Thorgay's house? |
00:29:23 |
Right there. |
00:29:26 |
Come, I'll take you there. |
00:29:35 |
Tashi Delek, jhulley, welcome. |
00:34:58 |
Apo? |
00:35:03 |
My head... |
00:35:07 |
Last night I have... |
00:35:12 |
Yes, I know. |
00:37:52 |
So is Tashi still dreaming? |
00:38:53 |
You see, even you can be angry. |
00:39:38 |
Here, the map. |
00:39:42 |
It is time to choose. |
00:39:55 |
Kala! |
00:40:30 |
Kala! |
00:42:10 |
When did you |
00:42:40 |
Jhulley, Tashi Delek! |
00:42:44 |
Jhulley, I am Tashi. |
00:42:48 |
The venerable Khenpo Apo sends me. |
00:42:52 |
No speech? |
00:42:54 |
Understood. |
00:43:17 |
Thank you. |
00:46:54 |
Every experience helps |
00:47:57 |
Where is Apo? |
00:48:36 |
Even He was allowed |
00:48:40 |
until he was 29! |
00:48:52 |
But since the age of five, |
00:48:56 |
I've been living like Buddha |
00:49:01 |
How do we know |
00:49:05 |
that His Enlightenment |
00:49:07 |
was not a direct result of |
00:49:13 |
Apo! |
00:49:15 |
What about the promised freedom |
00:49:18 |
And where is the promised satisfaction |
00:49:24 |
"You should not accept |
00:49:29 |
"unless and until |
00:49:32 |
"from your own point of view", |
00:49:43 |
There are things |
00:49:46 |
in order to learn them. |
00:49:51 |
And there are things |
00:49:55 |
we must own |
00:50:42 |
Your dream back in the village |
00:51:00 |
But... |
00:55:37 |
Kala! It's me! |
00:56:28 |
Come see me tomorrow. |
00:57:01 |
Dolma, |
00:57:04 |
we have another mouth to feed. |
00:57:06 |
A nomad. |
00:57:09 |
until the harvest was done. |
00:57:11 |
That way, I'll have less work. |
00:57:14 |
And of course, |
00:57:48 |
Sujata, here. |
00:57:50 |
Oh mother, |
00:57:51 |
I need some more. |
00:57:56 |
Pema... |
00:57:59 |
Go bring some food |
00:58:05 |
And tell him he can even |
00:58:16 |
Enough, father! |
00:59:05 |
Hey Mister! |
00:59:06 |
Take a little rest, |
00:59:08 |
make a little break for lunch. |
00:59:41 |
Pema! |
00:59:43 |
Pema, wait! |
00:59:45 |
Don't tell me you |
00:59:49 |
No, I did it for myself as well. |
00:59:52 |
But why? |
00:59:55 |
I am sorry |
00:59:57 |
Shhh... Pema please. |
01:00:01 |
Maybe I was wrong |
01:00:03 |
but all I wanted to do was |
01:00:06 |
to comfort you for a moment. |
01:00:13 |
And look now! |
01:00:21 |
Are you sure that it was |
01:00:26 |
If it is so, |
01:00:28 |
then I'll be gone |
01:00:31 |
before the sun rises. |
01:06:32 |
From now on you will go out wearing this! |
01:07:08 |
I gave you a job and this is |
01:07:14 |
Oh, is it you!? Forgive me! |
01:07:19 |
Why are you asking for forgiveness? |
01:07:21 |
He used to be a Lama, |
01:07:39 |
Mum... |
01:07:41 |
Slowly... |
01:08:35 |
Pema, |
01:08:38 |
what are we going to do? |
01:08:41 |
You family has already accepted |
01:08:50 |
I know. |
01:08:56 |
I have nothing else but you. |
01:09:03 |
An astrologer will come tomorrow, |
01:09:19 |
Pema, but why an astrologer? |
00:00:12 |
So fix it for that day. |
00:00:31 |
Please tell me, |
00:00:33 |
whom the wedding is with? |
00:00:36 |
With whom? |
00:00:44 |
Jamayang came to see me |
00:00:52 |
and requested me to come here |
00:00:54 |
to fix the wedding date |
00:00:57 |
of Pema and Tashi. |
00:01:23 |
Why? |
00:01:28 |
Jamayang? |
00:01:33 |
Even if the decision was |
00:01:38 |
you wouldn't have married me anyway! |
00:01:41 |
Would you? |
00:02:12 |
The woman will dominate! |
00:02:14 |
The woman will dominate! |
00:04:48 |
Hey, stop, eat now! |
00:06:06 |
Something is wrong. |
00:06:13 |
Who is he? |
00:06:14 |
My husband! |
00:06:27 |
What's going on? |
00:06:30 |
After all the years |
00:06:32 |
Tenzin, you allow him |
00:06:37 |
Now you can cry, my son. |
00:06:46 |
You better start building |
00:06:48 |
You're going to need a lot |
00:07:08 |
Tashi, we're satisfied |
00:07:13 |
Besides, you have to sell it to him. |
00:07:15 |
No one else comes to this valley! |
00:07:18 |
Let me take the harvest to town! |
00:07:22 |
We'll teach Dawa a lesson! |
00:07:31 |
And what makes you think |
00:08:16 |
What is that? |
00:08:18 |
For a safe journey. |
00:09:09 |
One ticket, five Rupees. |
00:09:13 |
Two tickets, ten Rupees. |
00:10:17 |
You see, even notes don't |
00:10:26 |
Wow, incredible! |
00:10:55 |
Guess what? |
00:10:58 |
Now the bank-notes |
00:11:25 |
Your father's gone with Tashi. |
00:11:27 |
I know. |
00:11:35 |
Don't you understand! |
00:11:38 |
Why change a traditional practice? |
00:11:41 |
Dawa always bought |
00:11:44 |
It's dangerous to oppose him. |
00:11:50 |
Jamayang. Go fetch my mother! |
00:11:55 |
Quick! |
00:12:37 |
Now who would this be? |
00:12:41 |
It's me! |
00:12:45 |
So it seems you've been to town? |
00:12:47 |
We've been working. |
00:12:49 |
I can see that. |
00:12:50 |
Hiding your grain? |
00:12:53 |
That's easy. |
00:12:56 |
You better remember that. |
00:13:00 |
Besides, what did I tell you? |
00:13:03 |
He's ruining the whole valley! |
00:13:07 |
Look at you! |
00:13:09 |
Bastards. |
00:13:24 |
It's Pema! The baby's coming! |
00:13:32 |
No! Women only! |
00:13:46 |
I see... |
00:14:47 |
What a beautiful boy! |
00:14:52 |
Are you a Tulku, Karma? |
00:15:39 |
So it's settled? |
00:15:42 |
Sujata's next. |
00:15:44 |
No! |
00:15:46 |
Keep all the money! |
00:15:47 |
Just keep passing it on to me! |
00:15:50 |
Pema knows what to do. |
00:15:51 |
She always pays me |
00:15:54 |
And how long has that been? |
00:15:57 |
I am nineteen... |
00:16:01 |
Figure out the rest! |
00:16:38 |
Your money! |
00:16:41 |
I wish you a safe return. |
00:16:44 |
See you next year! |
00:18:17 |
Karma, that's very good. |
00:18:37 |
This wood is so heavy... |
00:18:43 |
Oh, you're still carrying it! |
00:19:05 |
What's inside, Apa? |
00:19:07 |
- Meat. |
00:19:10 |
From a goat. |
00:19:12 |
Did you have to kill the goat |
00:19:14 |
Yes. |
00:19:16 |
But mother says |
00:19:19 |
not even an insect! |
00:19:20 |
We didn't kill the goat. |
00:19:31 |
Why didn't we kill the |
00:19:37 |
Stop talking and eat, Karma. |
00:19:45 |
Stop! Wear something warm. |
00:19:47 |
Let him go. |
00:19:48 |
But it's freezing outside! |
00:19:51 |
Let him find that out. |
00:19:55 |
It is freezing! |
00:20:20 |
So you see, |
00:23:01 |
Is everything all right? |
00:23:06 |
It's just... the migrant workers. |
00:23:09 |
Maybe we don't need |
00:23:13 |
I sometimes wonder if |
00:23:17 |
They cost so much money! |
00:23:21 |
I want you to tell me |
00:23:25 |
what will happen to that stick. |
00:23:30 |
It will drown! |
00:23:34 |
Suppose it doesn't. |
00:23:44 |
It will get stuck... |
00:23:47 |
in the rocks! |
00:23:50 |
Suppose it doesn't get stuck. |
00:23:51 |
We don't really need |
00:23:56 |
What is it you suddenly have |
00:23:58 |
against our poor workers? |
00:24:03 |
It'll stay in the water and rot! |
00:24:05 |
No. |
00:24:08 |
It will get stuck |
00:24:10 |
...or it can go down |
00:24:12 |
and break. |
00:24:15 |
Suppose even that doesn't happen. |
00:24:19 |
What then? |
00:24:24 |
Do you give up? |
00:24:30 |
The answer's simple. |
00:24:32 |
The stick will reach the sea! |
00:24:34 |
We're all like this stick. |
00:24:41 |
Our world is like a river. |
00:24:59 |
Jamayang, congratulations! |
00:25:01 |
I heard you are soon |
00:25:08 |
By the way... |
00:25:12 |
we're taking our harvest |
00:25:14 |
into town. |
00:25:16 |
Don't you think it's time |
00:25:21 |
I only sell to Dawa, |
00:25:24 |
Think a little, |
00:25:26 |
you know Dawa cheats you. |
00:25:29 |
After all these years... |
00:25:32 |
you still don't know |
00:25:34 |
do you? |
00:26:00 |
We're back! And look! |
00:26:15 |
Apa! |
00:26:16 |
What did you do |
00:26:21 |
He always made his own toys. |
00:26:25 |
Go now! |
00:27:08 |
Jamayang, |
00:27:10 |
Please, you don't need him any more. |
00:27:12 |
Hey stop! |
00:27:23 |
I don't even know why |
00:27:30 |
Jamayang, let him go. Listen... |
00:27:32 |
And prepare yourselves to |
00:27:34 |
Believe me! |
00:27:37 |
You can sell it in |
00:27:40 |
That's the best way. |
00:27:41 |
You chased him away! |
00:27:47 |
Everything you touch, |
00:27:50 |
Dawa! |
00:27:53 |
Jamayang is hot-headed. |
00:27:55 |
He'll calm down once he's married. |
00:28:00 |
and follow his own way. |
00:28:22 |
Ama! |
00:28:24 |
Karma, stay outside please. |
00:28:27 |
Karma, you can come in now. |
00:30:10 |
What's the matter with him? |
00:30:11 |
I told you we shouldn't |
00:32:40 |
Apa says we save |
00:32:43 |
Everyone came to help us. |
00:32:48 |
The whole valley. |
00:33:03 |
It's you, isn't it? |
00:33:07 |
Why would I do a thing like that? |
00:33:09 |
It wasn't me. |
00:33:10 |
Then who? |
00:33:12 |
Take a guess! |
00:35:40 |
You fool, |
00:35:44 |
why don't you try |
00:35:47 |
You think I burnt your field? |
00:35:52 |
No one does suuch things here. |
00:35:54 |
Grow up! |
00:36:03 |
And you guys, |
00:36:07 |
Now why don't you |
00:37:37 |
Are you sure you're old enough |
00:37:41 |
I'm a man now! |
00:37:47 |
For a safe journey. |
00:38:15 |
- Is Pema in? |
00:38:17 |
We leave... |
00:38:20 |
Can I have my money? |
00:38:23 |
Okay. |
00:38:43 |
How old are you? |
00:38:47 |
You ask me that every year! |
00:40:14 |
Be careful, it is fragile. |
00:41:31 |
- I hear something! |
00:42:01 |
Hurry! Pema's coming! |
00:42:08 |
My sari, you tore it! |
00:42:11 |
You must leave now. |
00:42:14 |
Hurry up! Leave. |
00:42:16 |
What are you still doing here? |
00:42:21 |
Calm down. |
00:42:22 |
Why are you so worried? |
00:42:58 |
Look Apa, a pony just like yours! |
00:43:03 |
That's good. |
00:43:09 |
This is for you. |
00:43:12 |
Very nice. Thanks. |
00:43:14 |
Aren't you going to... |
00:43:15 |
Later, I have some work. |
00:43:18 |
...try it on? |
00:44:29 |
Tashi! |
00:44:31 |
Sonam! |
00:44:50 |
It's about Apo? |
00:44:55 |
When apo knew it was time, |
00:45:03 |
he went to prepare himself |
00:45:10 |
He asked that I accompany him. |
00:45:17 |
We both meditated together |
00:45:24 |
He asked that |
00:45:29 |
I give you this. |
00:45:53 |
I realized now that my |
00:45:59 |
and so I will be |
00:46:07 |
I know that we shall meet again. |
00:46:14 |
Perhaps when we do... |
00:46:18 |
...you'll be able to tell me |
00:46:22 |
satisfying one thousand desires |
00:46:27 |
Yours, Apo. |
00:47:53 |
I've heard so much about |
00:47:56 |
wild-weddings in your region! |
00:47:59 |
And for your marriage, |
00:48:02 |
but you know |
00:48:09 |
It feels so strange knowing |
00:48:16 |
I won't be coming back |
00:48:22 |
Look after yourself. |
00:54:34 |
Yashodhara... |
00:54:43 |
Do you know that name? |
00:54:46 |
Prince Siddhartha, Gautama, |
00:54:52 |
Everybody knows these names |
00:54:55 |
but "Yashodhara"? |
00:55:11 |
Yashodhara was married to Siddhartha. |
00:55:16 |
She loved him dearly. |
00:55:20 |
One night, Siddhartha left her |
00:55:25 |
and their son, Rahul, |
00:55:29 |
to seek Enlightenment |
00:55:39 |
He did not even say |
00:55:49 |
Yashodhara has shown compassion |
00:55:51 |
for the sick and ailing |
00:55:54 |
long before Siddhartha |
00:56:07 |
Who can say if he owed |
00:56:13 |
Pema... |
00:56:25 |
Perhaps Yashodhara wanted |
00:56:39 |
How can we ever know |
00:56:44 |
if Yashodhara fell victim to anger, |
00:56:47 |
loneliness or bitterness |
00:56:52 |
after Siddhartha left her? |
00:57:07 |
Who even thought about her? |
00:57:28 |
