Loving Karma

14,624 views
On a remote mountaintop, former Buddhist monk Lobsang Phuntsok attempts to heal his own childhood abandonment by adopting 85 unwanted children and raising them with love and compassion at Jhamtse Gatsal, a children's community in the foothills of the Himalayas. This film, directed by Andrew Hinton and Johnny Burke, follows Jhamtse's newest arrival, a wild and troubled 5-year-old girl named Tashi, as she learns what love is and how it can help her to heal.

This was a real pleasure to watch. There was something very calm about it, and I was very inspired by the monk and how he treated every child with such love, respect and gentleness. The realness really came across, which I appreciated very much.
My partner was moved by how our deepest sufferings become our deepest strengths, and how he saw this wisdom being witnessed and taught.
