In the isolated regions of the Indian Himalayas, reliance on traditional healing methods is reducing life expectancy. The people of Zanskar are literally risking their lives to keep their traditional Buddhist heritage alive.

  • The sad results of ignorance.

  • don't be so hasty in the west we have similar charlatans, they are called politicians.

  • Really I never knew meaningless name-calling and being closed minded was a sign of intelligence and if the mind had nothing to with healing there would be no placebo effect which by the way was documented by Britsh medical community

  • I am a physician and I think the mind has very little to do with it. I've seen hopeless cancer patients survive and "fighters" die quickly (and vice versa).

    No, I'm not RETARDED - in fact, it's very likely I'm more intelligent than you are. By the way, I mentioned your comment to some of my colleagues and they laughed at you.

  • The dizzyness and nausea is from the yak ride on the way there.

  • anyone who disagrees that the mind has nothing to do with healing is RETARTED.

    there's not a doctor in the world who thinks that.

  • These people are amongst the poorest in the world. They have no formal education and their healing practices have been passed down for generations. Some ignorant individuals would rather crap on their belief system instead of researching their faith . Many people do very well without modern medicine.

  • Heh, agreed Deimos.

  • stupid shit ! fuck didn know they were so many retards in canada
