On September 10th, 36 hours after a 24 hour flight, Ronen Schechner filmed a procession to Shambhala in the Gobi. The procession, which started with the blast of a conch, celebrated the consecration of a new assembly hall of the Hamrin Hrid Monastery. For three continuous hours, Ronen raced from one angle to another and from one scene to the next, capturing the sounds, faces and images of the Passage to Shambhala.
