![Tibetan Butter Churning Dance, a traditional folk performance that honors the daily, labor-intensive process of making yak butter, a crucial element of Tibetan life. Originating from daily household chores, the dance mimics rhythmic churning motions, symbolizing prosperity, unity, and communal joy, often performed during festivities like Losar... The dance stems from the traditional method of making yak butter using a long wooden churn, a task requiring thousands of strokes. Yak butter is not only food but also used for fuel and in butter lamps at monasteries to symbolize wisdom. Dancers in colorful attire, often in a circle, use choreographed, energetic movements to simulate the pushing and pulling of the plunger in a butter churn. It is widely performed during the Tibetan New Year (Losar) and other celebrations, representing gratitude and the preservation of culture. It represents the blending of daily survival with art, focusing on community spirit and harmony. Yak butter is essential for making traditional Tibetan Butter Tea, made from tea leaves, yak butter, water, tsampa (roasted barley flour) and salt. The history of tea in Tibet dates back to 7th Century CE, during Tang dynasty. However, butter tea did not become popular in Tibet until about 13th Century, time of the Phagmodrupa dynasty. According to legend, a Chinese princess married a king of Tibet which later helped establish trade routes between China and Tibet. These trade routes brought tea into Tibet from China. Later, butter was added to the tea that was brought from China as butter is and was a staple in Tibetan cuisine. By the 8th Century, it was common to drink tea in Tibet. In 13th Century, tea was then used in Tibetan religious ceremonies. Today, butter tea is still prevalent in Tibet, and Tibetans can drink up to 60 small cups of the tea every day. Today, this ceremonial dance based off of Tibetan tea culture. It also may speak to the lesser known Butter Tea Ceremony. While the ceremony is rarely practiced anymore it still takes place in a handful of monasteries, including one in Gomar Gompa in eastern Amdo (“Butter Tea Ceremony”). While the ceremony is not widely spread, it is still an important ritual for some Tibetans. During the ceremony, Tibetans gather in the courtyard while the tea is being prepared. Local boys often stand on the edge of roofs surrounding the courtyard and throw down bags of candy and treats, although this is not necessarily part of the ritual. Once the tea is ready, wooden buckets of butter tea are carried into the courtyard by back, each bucket holding nearly 30 liters of tea. Once the buckets are placed on the ground, individuals use ladles to distribute the butter tea to members of the community. This particular dance is so interesting because it seamlessly integrates these three practices in a modern context. The act of dancing is in itself a ritualized and sacred practice. Thus, creating a dance based on the preparation and uses of Butter Tea—a quintessential element of Tibetan culture—only further heightens the significance of tea customs by ritualizing the practice by means of dance. Drinking butter tea is a regular part of Tibetan life. Before work, a Tibetan will typically enjoy several bowlfuls of this beverage, and it is always served to guests.[citation needed] Since butter is the main ingredient, butter tea provides plenty of caloric energy and is particularly suited to high altitudes. The butter may also help prevent chapped lips. According to the Tibetan custom, butter tea is drunk in separate sips, and after each sip, the host refills the bowl to the brim. Thus, the guest never drains his bowl; it is constantly topped up. If the visitor does not wish to drink, the best thing to do is leave the tea untouched until the time comes to leave and then drain the bowl. In this way, etiquette is observed and the host will not be offended. © Discover Tibet #archaeohistories](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2045753431650951413/ext_tw_video_thumb/2045753341066788864/pu/img/aVetvB_YQthpRAH0.jpg)
![Asia has a well-stocked library of flood stories [1], including from Tibet [2] and China [3]. Siberian mammoths [4] and megaflood evidence from the Altai region [5] (attributed to ice-age glacial lake failures according to strictly uniformitarian dogma), and Mohenjo-Daro [6] offer an excellent fit with the ECDO predicted moment of inertia.[7] "According to the Tibetan traditions, the highlands of tibet, too, were flooded in a great cataclysm. The traditions of the Tibetans speak also of terrifying comets that caused great upheavals." [2] "In the days of Yahou the event occurred which separates the almost obliterated and very dim past of China from the period that is considered historical: China was overwhelmed by an immense catastrophe. 'At that time the miracle is said to have happened that the sun during a span of ten days did not set, the forests were ignited, and a multitude of abominable vermin was brought forth. [..] In the lifetime of Yao [Yahou] the sun did not set for ten full days and the entire land was flooded.' An immense way 'that reached the sky'fell down on the land of China. 'The water was well up on the high mountains and the foothills could not be seen at all.'"[2] Many more such accounts from this region can be found at reference [1].

![I WENT TO SPEAK at China’s incredible Tsinghua University. Amazing place: You can see why it’s zooming up the global academic charts. I’m with a very dynamic group of people at an international workshop at a place which has speedily become one of the world’s top places of learning. In some ways it’s like Harvard or Cambridge – big gardens interspersed with big old buildings. But it’s much less politicized and more strongly education-focused—no wonder it makes so many breakthroughs. . THE CAST Let me introduce you to a few people at this gathering. - That’s Yan Hairong and that’s Barry Sautman. They are professors who know more about China and its ethnic minorities than all the journalists I know put together. Literally. - That’s Daniel Dumbrill, a businessman who shot to fame in 2019 when he went on YouTube to tell the truth about the Hong Kong unrest. - That’s Sun Yan, a New York professor who gave us an interesting perspective from the United States. - That’s Jaq James, an Australian lawyer whose gobsmacking work comparing Chinese and western laws reveals which side really deserves to be called “authoritarian”. Her reports are a must-read. - Also present were Tibetan scholar Kalsang Drolma, commentator Ben Norton, and others; all fine people doing great work. One of the ways you can tell that Tsinghua University is full of smart people is that everyone goes everywhere by bicycle—and the fact that most of it is green. Wish the whole world was like that! . YEARS OF RESEARCH The great thing about academic conferences is that people’s work is based on research. It’s not like in journalism, where the CIA make up a story and reporters obediently make it front page news. [video shows examples] No. In academia, you need to do actual research, gather original data, and then do statistical analysis and comparative studies on it. You spend months or years doing this. The result is that you end up with the truth—which is very often diametrically opposite to what politicians and journalists tell you. . FICTION VS FACT I’m just going to give you one example. In the US a few days ago senators launched a motion that accused the Chinese of committing genocide on the people of who live in Tibet, that’s the area known as Xizang in the southwest of China. Genocide is of course the worst crime of all, trying to wipe out an entire ethnicity, so they would need an extraordinary amount of evidence to show that. But the Senators have literally none at all. They just made it up. Compare that to academics. Here they have raw data about Tibet from people who live there and who spend literally years researching it. And what do we find? Tibetans have the fastest expansion rate of any ethnic community in China. Between the 2010 census and the 2020 census the population of Tibet grew 21.5 percent—the exact opposite of a genocide. And that, boys and girls, is the difference between the media—and the facts. So, stay smart. Stay skeptical. Peace. .](https://image.24vids.com/tw-2069248087055573180/amplify_video_thumb/2069247632728629248/img/Lf6enrvpdc5dp5Xn.jpg)
