9-year-old Boy’s Initiation at Thikse Monastery | SLICE
After walking for five days, Urgan finally arrives at the monastery.
There are about a hundred monks in the Thikse Monastery, more than half of whom are young novices between 8 and 20 years old. They are all like Urgan, having left their villages to come here and learn the precepts of Buddha.
From this moment on, Urgan is in the hands of his spiritual master. A ceremony is held celebrating Urgan’s entrance into the monastery. And like novices, his apprenticeship begins by reading the noble treatise on wisdom.

the movie is about the ladakhi boy in ladakh not tibetan and also speaking the ladakhi language
I know it’s their way of life, especially religion-related matters, but I couldn’t help feeling sorry for the boy away from loved ones, family and friends at such a young age!

Seems scripted
Amazing, how wonderful tradition.
May the Noble, Supreme Bodhichitta appear where it is not! May it not lose its power where it has already appeared, but increase more and more for the benefit of all sentient Beings! Long life to His Holiness, the Great Dalai Lama XIV ❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏❤️🙏
Is this a part of a longer documentary?
1:35 better to hear them talk and hear their language than someone talking over them. Please just ad subtitles. You loose the authenticity of the video and story by dubbing the voices.
Respect all the religions 😍🙏🤩 proud 2hav practice Buddhism in our family home..

Real first
So sad. Poor little boy, I hope he gets to play cricket sometimes.
Buddhism is the only scientific religion in the world. Abhidhamma is the most scientific teachings in Theravada Buddhism. Mahayana traditions have a lot of beliefs and rituals.
Cool place but kid is to young I think 12 is a better age not 8 or 9
