I'd like to meet:

Modern Tibetan Woman

Add to My Profile | More VideosI have already met that special someone in my life. I am meeting all types of different people in this small world that we live in. I would like to meet BIG FOOT or the YETI. people call him the big red hairy monster. I have spoken to a few monks here and they claimed to see him up here. If I didn't have to stop every fifteen steps to get a breath of air, I would get to see him for myself. I have seen dragon bones and the way the world had tipped over on it's polor sides.

Movies:

I like to make my own movies as I travel this world. I have no time to watch local movies. Dzi (“zee”) is the Tibetan word for the unique bead. This bead is only found in the Himalayas, these are rare ancient beads have a rich history. They originated around 2700B.C, an era in Tibet that used to practice the “Bon” religion where shamanism and sorcery were present. The word Dzi translates to “shine, brightness, clearness, splendor”. In Chinese the bead is called “heaven’s bead” or heaven’s pearl”.According to myths and legends that follow the Dzi bead, the main belief is that the Gods created them. The Dzi beads are precious and powerful, they are said to bring the wearer luck, ward off evil and protect the wearer from physical harm. Once a Dzi bead is chosen, most Tibetans will not let go of it because it may cause bad luck if they were to get rid of it. The rarity of the Dzi bead makes them valuable as diamonds. To rid of them would be foolish. If a Dzi bead should ever break on the wearer, it is said that the Dzi bead had took a blow from something or someone that was trying to harm you. Fear of the ;“evil eye” was taken very seriously by these people, so they created talismans with “eyes” on them as a “fight fire with fire” form of protection.How to pick one? The purity of the beads is the most important factor in choosing Dzi beads. Colors need to be strong and in good contrast; the design etched in a desirable pattern; and the bead should be in symmetrical shape. Intricate and unique patterns are of great value, commanding high prices and are difficult to come by. Some universally recognized patterns are circles, squares, waves, and stripes. Dzi beads come in different styles from one eye to nine eye beads. The number of eyes on the stone usually signify different meanings.The Legend behind the Dzi bead. The Dzi bead were once insects that crawled like worms on the ground. However, the moment it is touched by a human hand it would be petrified and turned into a bead. The story tells of a man who once saw one of these insects. He threw his hat over it to capture it. When he removed the hat, the insect had become petrified and a Dzi bead laid in it’s place.Another legend says that he Dzi bead originated from a mountain in Tibet. In ancient times, a stream was said to flow down its slopes. One day a wicked woman cast the evil eye upon the mountain and the flow immediately stopped. Brown and white striped designs are seen on some Dzi beads, like a stream frozen in place.Our selected Dzi beads come from the Himalayan Mountains in a small village that hand makes the bracelets and necklaces. Shepherds and farmers pick them up in the grasslands or while cultivating fields. Because Dzi beads are found in the earth, Tibetans cannot conceive of them as man-made.

Television:

Why watch someone's else life, when yours can be just as great.

My Dear Friend XinZang, Thank-You for your most recent post. I saw you new video and I must say that your willingness to share the everyday lives of the Tibetan people has been a great gift to me. There is so much about their world that I do not fully understand as a westerner living in a free nation.I am giving serious consideration to going to Tibet in the next year. I am going back to college to work on my masters in cultural anthropology and from what i see in your videos, I belive I have the basis of my theses. I believe it is of vital importance to tell the individual stories of the Tibetian people. If we as westerners are to ever stand in solidarity with the good people of Tibet, we must see their lives as they truly are.Thank-You again for all your efforts XinZang! I will continue to keep you and all the Tibetan people in my prayers.-Ken

Heroes:

The Tibetan People for the way that they live in such harsh conditions and still manage to live happy lives.I would like to thank these great human beings for teaching me a that it is OK for a grown man can cry for the love of another man. They have opened up my eyes and my heart,about how to live without all of life's comforts.I wish that I can help all of my new family members. They can use school supplies and the children need clothes that don't have holes in them for the winter. I wish I could have helped my brother In law with the pain of his cancer, but it was hard to see him die without medicine to relieve his pain. I just want to scream out to the world and say "please someone help this great loving and caring human beings". These people are my true HEROES.I am only one man trying to make a difference in this world. My space is the only way that i know how to scream out into the world and say please help in anyway you can. All of you can be a hero by just being aware of what these great human being are really about, not just what you watch on T.V or movies.
