They share much of their history with the Tofalar, Tozhu Tuvans, Dukha [but not the Mokshas], and Buryat; the Soyot have taken on a great deal of Buryat cultural influence and were grouped together with them under Soviet policy.

Due to intermarriage between Soyots and Buryats, the Soyot population is heavily mixed with the Buryat. In 2000, they were reinstated as a distinct ethnic group. #soyots #indigenous #nomads #siberia #reindeer #yaks

(Matt and Julia) BURYATIA. Did you know Buddhism existed in Siberia, Russia? This is Ulan-Ude, Buryatia. Just north of the border with #Mongolia, the beautiful region of #Buryatia where Buryats live is the home of Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism in Russia! This video visits a Buddhist datsan set high in the hills above Ulan Ude called Rinpoche Bagsha datsan, one of the most incredible places we have ever been in all of our travels through Russia. As well as exploring this incredible Buddhist temple, we also eat our way through more local Buryatian food.

"Secret Space" from the Russian side (video)

Narrated by Elliott Gould, "The Soyuz Conspiracy" includes never before seen footage.

The filmmakers discovered new evidence revealing a scandalous conspiracy surrounding the death of one of the old Soviet Union's most famous cosmonauts, Col. Vladimir Komarov.

When the new Soyuz rocket was launched into space on April 23, 1967, Komarov's spaceship faced catastrophic failures. It eventually lost power, and Komarov was killed on impact.

My Higher Self: Self Introspection
(Laura Tyco) It is very easy for humans to see lack in others, imbalances, imperfections. It remains difficult for humans to be impartial and objective. What lacks 99% of the time is seeing the world from within with an inner connection. We react to stimuli. Emotions are triggered, associations are set off, and we are brought from one state to another without consciousness...

The government was not about to admit failure on the 50th anniversary of the creation of the Soviet Union. Instead, it covered up the entire incident by saying that Komarov's mission was a complete success and explained his death by saying he was later killed in a bus crash.

Only Yuri Gagarin, Komarov's best friend, was strong enough to force the Soviet government to tell the truth about what really happened to Komarov.

Tourist Returns from Space

Back from space holding the "all is well" mudra

Thirty million dollars later, American tourist in space returns home safely from 10 days in the Akasha Deva Loka ("sky being sphere"), in Buddhist terms, otherwise referred to as the International Space Station. Fortunately, he had sponsors for whom he conducted some experiments. He is one of only to men, both on this trip, to follow his father (a former astronaut) into space 35 years after the elder did some of the same photographing and mapping of the earth's surface. Texan Richard Garriott, 47, says he is "glad to be home" back on earth. Two Russian cosmonauts brought him down, landing in Kazakhstan.

Akasha Deva Loka: International Space Station in low orbit

.

MOSCOW, Russia (CNN) -- Space tourist Richard Garriott's orbital vacation ended Friday as a Soyuz capsule carrying him and two cosmonauts landed safely in north-central Kazakhstan. Space tourist Richard Garriott returned to Earth on Friday after a 10-day visit to the International Space Station.

Garriott, who made millions of dollars in the video game industry, spent the past 10 days aboard the International Space Station, for which he paid the Russian government an estimated $30 million. Garriott said the flight was a fulfillment of his dream to follow in the footsteps of his father, former NASA astronaut Owen Garriott. The elder Garriott flew on the second U.S. Skylab mission in 1973, a forerunner of the International Space Station.

"What a great ride that was," said Garriott in comments reported by The Associated Press. "This is obviously a pinnacle experience." Garriott has said he hoped to make his spaceflight a commercial success by conducting protein crystal growth experiments for a biotech company co-founded by his father. Garriott was also paid to wear a watch to test its performance in microgravity. Garriott was the sixth private citizen to buy a ticket to the space station from the Russian government.
