In Nepal, Buddhism and Hinduism mix with a more secret religion: Jhakrism, the way of shamans. The Jhakri do not withdraw into monasteries, but dance and play drums in villages. They climb sacred mountains and explore the wilderness to draw closer to the mysteries of the soul and the world. In the pilgrimage towards the sacred peak, the shaman becomes a guide and spiritual mountaineer, an econaut and explorer of the wild Himalayan nature.
