It is Maud Kristen, one of the most famous French medium, who will be the fil
conducteur for this film documentary. Maud is very famous for her prediction
experiences directly at television, her honesty and her battle to cleanse this
profession so discredited. We are going to discover through her eyes the oracles,
mediums and astrologists that live or descended from Himalayan regions. In their
respective societies, their roles and their advices are recognized and considered
useful on the same level as a doctor, a lawyer or a banker.
In following her we will be in the Himalaya, precisely Dharamsala, the residence
of the His Holiness the Dalai Lama, the exiled Tibetan government and some Tibetan
refugees. In the past Tibet had lot of oracles or mediums, who were consulted
for personal or collective questions. Tibet has developed a speciality: with
the passage of time some oracles have become renowned institutions and are accepted
in a way that they became an integral part of a monastic life. Thus some monasteries
have a medium through whom a deity or the manifestation of an oracle. During
these travels we will try to catch glimpses of Buddhist concept of spirituality
which in essence is called "universal responsibility", a notion dear
to the Dalai Lama, that all human beings should try to a "good human being"
and everybody should try to promote happiness for all living beings. Is there
any commonality between the spirits of a highly mediatised Parisian medium and
a monk in his Himalayan universe, each in their own way in search of spirituality?
