Jitni Mitti Utna Sona [As Much Soil, So Much Gold]

De: Ashok Pande

Narrado por: Syed Mohd Irfan

This book delves into the lives of the Rung people, who have inhabited the remote Himalayan valleys of Vyas, Darma, and Chaudas in Kumaon, Uttarakhand, on the India-Tibet border for centuries. The Rung people, with their unique cultural and social traditions, have a rich history of trade with Tibet, embodying a civilization distinct in its heritage.

The narrative is the culmination of extensive research journeys through these valleys, offering a rare glimpse into a mysterious world that has seen little authentic documentation. The book not only showcases the cultural richness of the Rung society, which thrives in the harsh conditions of the Himalayas, but also highlights their indomitable spirit and extraordinary courage, essential for survival in such challenging terrains.

Rich in anthropological insights, this travelogue weaves a tapestry of stories, myths, poetry, folklore, and memories, creating an enchanting experience that combines the warmth of elder tales with the thrill of exploring unfamiliar geographies.
