In 1949, Mao came to power through the Communist revolution in China. In 1950 China occupied Tibet and Dalai Lama, who was ruling Tibet, came under the control of the Communist Party. The communist party was anti-religion and abolished Tibetan cultural practices, which lead to severe conflict. In 1959 there was a massive uprising in Tibet which forced the Chinese Communist Party to impose even harsher rule on the mountainous region. Close to 100,000 people lost their lives in the rebellion. In 1959, Dalai Lama escaped to India.
During the Chinese takeover, one million Tibetans were killed; many of them were yogis. Realizing that their tradition and impact on the future is now limited, some of these spiritual masters decided to share a few of their secret beliefs and spiritual practices with the world. There are also interviews with many Tibetan yogis, especially from the Drikung Kagyu lineage. These include the great master (the late) Drubwang Konchok Norbu Rinpoche, Drikung Kyabgon Chetsang Rinpoche, Chenga Rinpoche, Choje Togden Rinpoche, Nubpa Rinpoche, and Garchen Rinpoche. This film includes scenes from a meditation retreat of two Tibetan yogis in the caves at Lapchi, a place made famous by Milarepa, considered one of Tibet’s greatest yogis.
