A Tibetan Odyssey, Part 8 - North Face of Mount Everest From Tibet in China

That time when I travelled to the China side of Everest Base Camp, where the north face of the world's tallest mountain greet bedazzled visitors. The China side of EBC is a mere 25km from the foot of Everest, versus the over-100km that the much-busier Nepal side has to travel.

It was in Lhasa where we would visit the world-famous Potala Palace and Jokhang Monastery, a shrine for Buddhists the world over, and an eye-opening discovery of the faith of the Tibetan peoples.

    We create an image to portray to others what we want to be though not necessarily what we are and are trapped in that image. I realized that we need to let go of some of our wants if we do not want to be stressed by acquiring them. Life as you've said is short and we need to stop and smell the roses every now and then. I pity your friend for his predicament but he has put himself into a rut. A rut which he created for himself and only he can get out of it if he truly wants to. We are masters of our fate and to let society dictate what we should be to be labeled as successful is stress at its highest level. Face is important to many people until health says otherwise.

    I will certainly not agree with Eddin Khoo on his rebuff of the Chola dynasty. Proper history will tell him that the Majapahit Empire was ruled by the Cholas, a south indian community.2/3 of southeast asia was under the cholas occupation.Many of the Hindu relics are still there to be seen.It will do him a world of good if he concur with a lot of other learned historians to rewrite Malaysian history(for primary and secondary schools) now as the powers-to-be in this country have distorted history

    • @vimalrajkr
      @vimalrajkr หลายเดือนก่อน

      You cannot use the word RULED to describe of how the Indian world expanded outside the Indian subcontinent. Also understanding the notion Indian empire outside the western narrative is important. Eastern religions co-existed, not to say there were no conflict but they co-existed. Eddin is correct to suggest the the Buddha was made by a local as Buddhism would have been the fashionable religion in the region. In the same light there were Hindu/Buddhist Malay Kings who were making advances for territories in Sri Lanka to secure Buddhist Relics. In the 13th Century a Malay king held fort and ruled portions of Sri Lanka for half a century. To Eddin point "Wild, Bastardised, Historically Rich"

  • @vimalrajkr
    @vimalrajkr หลายเดือนก่อน

    Hello Chuang, redirected from you pod session with Eddin. I consider myself an amateur historian. I think highly of my Sejarah education at school as it provided me a foundation understand and appreciate history today. It is actually a testament to work done by Eddin father; his vision was for Malaysians to share a generic/ general account of the formation of Malaysia. The problem with history is its often looked in isolation and it also serves an effective propaganda tool. History is often misrepresented. In the general psyche of people, historical facts are static. It often overlooks the societal fabric of the time. The reality is history is salient rich with sociocultural subtexts. As a history geek and a mud blood, I’ve aways had a fascination with Malaysian history particularly the origins of indo-malayans in Malaysia. I come from the school of thought that Penang is cradle of Modern Malaysia. I have my reasons based on historical events (too long to share here 😅. With regards to this video, having read Account of Abdullah’s Sea Voyage to Kelantan, I have to correct some of the facts presented by Eddin. To begin with, his voyage to Kelantan from Singapore was on a British diplomatic envoy to secure release Jewish and Chinese vessels which were detained in Kelantan. These accounts were published 1849 based on his voyages in 1837/38. As I’ve pointed out earlier on how history can be pervasive, Munshi Abdullah is a problematic figure in Malaysian history. In my eyes Munshi Abdullah can be considered the father of Malay journalism and probably modern Malay literature. Additionally, as an indo-Malayan I look up to him as a revered figure. However, for some he is a colonialist conspirator and an ally to infidels.

      @@khoohsuchuang Penang and the Malays brush with destiny predates the existence of Georgetown by almost 200 years. Without Penang Island there would be no East India Company. History could have panned out very very differently. Very very nerdy historical stuff. May I suggest you listen to EMPIRE. Spellbinding pod by William Dalrymple and Anita Anand. Good listen and excellent read suggestions. Fun fact William Dalrymple ancestors was one of the earliest man to publish a detailed map of the coast of Kedah and Penang.
