Yuli - The Holy Book

The Buddha gave an analogy of how long Ksitigarbha has remained a Bodhisattva and not attained the fruition of Buddhahood:

Buddha told Manjushri, "As an analogy, it is as if in the thousands of worlds, all the grasses, trees, bushes, straw, hemp, bamboo, reeds, mountains, stones, dust and every object is made into the Ganges River. And each grain of sand in the Ganges River becomes a great world. And each speck of dust in the each world is compared to an aeon. And within those aeons the specks of dust that would accumulate would also become aeons. Increase this amount a thousand times and this is how long Ksitigarbha has maintained the position of the Ten Ground -- the highest ground or position that a Bodhisattva can reach. Manjushri, the power from [this] Bodhisattva's vow is unimaginable." ~ Ksitigarbha Great Vows sutra

The photos are mainly of Sichuan, China where Dan Chi, the author of 'Yuli - The Holy Book' had lived in the 11th century. At 3:16 is a photo of a very important holy place called Zabbulung (western Tibet) where Yeshe Tsogyal attained full enlightenment - the supreme transformation of the rainbow body.

The music is of His Holiness Penor Rinpoche chanting the Mani mantra and using the ritual implements: the dhamaru and bell.
