      You have presented every festival and culture of India very well with the eyes of your camera, this time come to Bihar and present our Mahaparv Chhath in front of everyone with your eyes, this is not a festival, it is an emotion for us, definitely come only 6 days are left.

It is beautiful to watch, and its more of an experience every time I get lunch, turn the lights off, hide the curtains and sit comfortably to watch another docu-vid by one of the best content creators this country has to offer. Prost!

      मैं उत्तरकाशी उत्तराखंड से २००७ में माइग्रेट हुआ था रोजगार की तलाश में, लेकिन मैं अब थक चूका हूँ और वापस अपने गाँव जाना चाहता हूँ। इन १५ सालों में मैंने बहुत कुछ खोया बहुत कुछ पाया लेकिन अब मैं थक चूका हूँ। मैंने अपने पिता को २०१५ में खोया तब मैं उनके पास नहीं था इस बात का दुःख मुझे पूरी जिंदगी रहेगा। अब मेरी माँ गाँव में अकेली है और मैं चाहता हूँ की उनकी जिंदगी के आखिरी दिनों में मैं उनके साथ रहूं।

    My grandfather came to Delhi from Uttarakhand _pauri (nawan)……
    Pauri Garhwal one of the worst migrated region in Uttarakhand,,,,,, now only one family of 2 members left in the village ,,,,whole village is turned into ghost village,, they all have their own helplessness and need including us…..
    We can’t criticize people ,the main culprit is govt…….there is no education,,medical and employment facility ….
    Now govt comes up with some helpful schemes but it’s kinda late anyways hope for a better tomorrow …
    So many people can say big things but we have to be practical and it’s sad but it’s true……

    I'm originally from Uttarakhand,,, a small beautiful village in pauri Garhwal..
    My grandfather moved Delhi in search of good education n employment.. and from onwards we are here in Delhi but somewhere deep down inside our heart beats for Uttarakhand and we always make sure to go in village 2-3 times every year.....
    Some woke people criticize our old generation for migration but I don't think like that..... situations were very poor those days.... no education ,no hospitals , no roads , no EMPLOYment,etc....I respect my grandfather decision.....instead of cribbing about what they did,,,,we should start thinking about what we can do ..... so make sure do regular visit to your hometown as much as possible,,,,, generate awareness ,,,employment,,,etc by any means..............
    So to all my folks and some woke's,, if we start taking interest today the tomorrow will be better for sure..🙏🏼

    @12:05 The quote on his upper clearly said it, "Get over it".
    Personally for me, moving from Manali, Himachal Pradesh to Toronto has been quite overwhelming. I am still trying to get over it. Maybe I never will. Despite the better living conditions I still miss my hometown especially because of our culture: our devis and devtas, folklore, kathkuni houses, music, dance, and traditional and healthy food.
    People in the west talk a lot about the sustainability concepts which was already present in our culture. Living in harmony with nature, being part of the eco-system, understanding the weather patterns, mixed cropping, and using rare Himalayan herbs to treat life style disease and mental health issues.

I studied at Simla Himachal Pradesh but the problem of migration is not in that hill state. I think so it's due to better financial support in Himachal like horticulture, tourism etc. Earlier under UP Kumaon and Gharwal were ignored and now the new state governments are also not doing much

    Such a valuable contribution!
    I migrated from a big city in South East Asia where I was born and raised via the USA to a little rural village in Europe some 30 years ago. The transition was painful initially. It took a gradual revamping of my inner values to accept the change. Now I'm self-sufficient in more ways than I would ever have been, had I remained in the city enjoying the instant gratifications that it provided. The practical knowledge I've acquired in the process of living off the land is not in the least comparable to the higher education I received in the US which limited me to one specialized field while ignorant of survival in nature. This includes food production, preservation, medicine, health care, and more specifically the spiritual dependency of nature (people included) on her creator.

    Very nice documentary, my ancestors 150 yrs ago migrated to Mumbai from Gujarat. 2yrs ago my husband had a business opportunity and we shifted to a small sleepy town of Gujarat. Slowly I realised how much our previous generations and ours had lost our roots. It was a divine plan to come here and have had realised all that. But transition isn't easy, when u have several generations before u who have been born and brought up in a metro city and then a sudden move to a small town. But it helped a lot, as I connected with my roots here. But in our next generation 90% is going to Canada/US.

    Awareness of the aftermath of migration is very well depicted in your video. In many countries in Europe people are coming back and restoring the old homes with modern amenities and trying to live a second life after escaping from the cities. This is hopeful and if the government takes an interest in providing the basic amenities then maybe in India too this will happen. So the mindset needs to change. Thanks for this wonderful video

    Great job again brother.
    So sharing a bit of my personal story. I was born and brought up and still living and working for living in New Delhi. But my parents are from a sub town called Katwa in West Bengal and they migrated to Delhi to make a living. Though I do go there once in a year and have been going since childhood, when you go to such sub or small town and villeges you actually understand the difference. Difference in compact building and open nature, difference in standard of living, how every job matters be it cycling a rickshaw or selling fruties on street to being a part of a well corporate job. I do have decided one thing and thats what I have planned for future as well.
    You want to earn money and make a living and safe for future? Live in big cities.
    You have enough money now that you can utilize property to live rest of your life without a worry? Migrate to a sub town or Village or some place full of nature, open, less populated place. Where you can actually realize every breath you take in with pure oxygen.

    This video is technically very well done. The music and the editing is crisp, quite professional. The videography is also up to the mark, I really enjoyed some of the special effects. It's not as easy as it looks and many viewers miss the small little nuances, that the film-maker transfers from his mind to the screen. So, very well done.
    Now about the subject... Many of those who move from the hills or smaller towns to bigger busier cities, think, alone what can they do. Don't despair, do whatever you can do, even if it's a single effort. Go for a week and teach in the village, volunteer to teach what you are best in. If you have a little finance, try building a wall or a roof of the school, assemble a PC and gift it, if u are a doctor, offer a free medical check up and distribute prescribed medicines. Keep it simple, do what you can do. Maybe you can take a group of friends and stay a few nights, thus provide work and earnings to the villagers staying back. Even if 1% of the viewers think and take action, the soul will return to these ghost villages. All the best and take care everyone.

    Heart touching account of how our roots are being forgotten! Change is inevitable, but if it is taking us away from our culture, our roots, it is heartbreaking. The current system is completely western! Education , lifestyle, food, everyday products, dressing and what not. There are many factors that we can blame but it is of no help. Glad to see some people trying to change this, if more people realize this and turn to their roots and stand for what holds real value, we can definitely get back to our roots! At least some!

    One of the best and soul touching documentary, so far I have seen. My personal view on this story is people who have left this place for a better opportunity and convenience, at least they should create some love and care for the place they were borne and raised, in their children too, who knows one day some of among them may come back and sets new examples, in the lap of nature. Also one thing, you didn't cover the state governments views and plans on this migration, which I would like to know in such future documentaries.
    Otherwise I like your videos very much, the way you represent, the music, cinematography everything. I feel very peaceful, after watching your videos, Thank you...

    I can feel that because the things that happened with these villages is currently happening in my village.
    Peoples are migrating in cities for better lifestyle and the intresting thing is that some of them are not earning much money they are daily wages labour and their lifestyle becomming worse in the cities.In village they have a nice home field and good persons to talk while in city they have to adjust in one room and they have nothing more than this. But their mindset is that they are living a good life their in cities 😟 this thing that herts me a lot is they are cutting their roots from where they actually originated.

    • @EtherealColours
      @EtherealColours  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually, the migrant labourer migrates not for a better lifestyle. She/he does it because of the lack of basic necessities (like livelihood). They know more than anyone else that the life in the village is much more peaceful. They can feel the tension in the air in the cities, when they come for the first time.
      They way the world is run, if they don't follow it, it will mean they and their children will get left behind in the so called 'race' to nowhere. They are left with no choice.

    Nice info…this film has definitely changed my perspective helped me deciding on what I’m doing right now - sometimes you start and as time goes by things take time to become reality and doubt starts to set in, but this is where one needs to watch and explore the idea that you started out with. Yes it’s going to take time but like a painter you have to go through the processes of acquiring knowledge of how to starch a canvas to applying the colours to creat a painting and that may take a few month or years depending on how one chooses the final painting quality to be.

Apart from Dehradun, Nainital, Roorkee etc. there is absolutely no amount of support or structure from the state machinery. Private investments are fine, but to what extent?! What about the common denominator? Even the aspect of tourism has not been looked at from a holistic perspective.

    I originally came from HariharPur a small village in Allahabad UP to Ghaziabad, UP.
    I was born and lived some happy years there, but my father had an aspiration to make me a government employee.
    He migrated in the year of my birth
    To Ghaziabad and later when I went to 1st Grade he called us as well. Now we have a house in Ghaziabad and we don't go to the village often.
    Grandparents still live there, they say "किसी को तो गाव में रहकर घर देखना है न, और हम पैदा यही हुए थे तो कहीं और कैसे मरे। "
    I want to go back to my village but now I am so weirdly mingled in these city chores that I can't untangle myself out of it.

Things will be different.
