Gulmit: The Cultural Gem of Upper Hunza
Gulmit, a serene and historic village nestled in the heart of Upper Hunza (Gojal Valley) in Pakistan’s Gilgit-Baltistan region, is a place of rare beauty and rich cultural heritage. Located along the Karakoram Highway, this peaceful settlement lies on the banks of the Hunza River, surrounded by the majestic peaks of the Karakoram range.
Geography and Landscape
At an elevation of approximately 2,500 meters (8,200 feet) above sea level, Gulmit is blessed with a spectacular natural environment. Snow-capped mountains, lush green terraced fields, and the shimmering waters of the nearby Attabad Lake give the village a postcard-like appearance. Towering peaks such as Passu Cones and Tupopdan form a dramatic backdrop, making Gulmit a favorite among trekkers, photographers, and nature enthusiasts.
Historical Significance
Gulmit served as the summer capital of the former Hunza state for many centuries. Evidence of its historical importance can be seen in the remnants of old watchtowers, traditional houses, and ancient irrigation systems that are still in use today. The village is home to the historic Ondra Fort, perched on a hilltop, which once served as a defensive structure for the region.
Culture and People
The people of Gulmit, known as Wakhi, speak the Wakhi language and are known for their warm hospitality. They follow the Ismaili sect of Islam and are recognized for their emphasis on education, community development, and cultural preservation. Traditional Wakhi music, dance, and handicrafts such as carpet weaving and embroidery are integral parts of life in Gulmit.
Cultural organizations and schools in the village work actively to keep the Wakhi language and traditions alive. The Gulmit Museum and Cultural Center is a prominent institution that showcases local history, artifacts, and traditional arts.
Economy and Livelihood
The economy of Gulmit is largely based on agriculture, small-scale tourism, and handicrafts. Locals grow crops such as wheat, barley, potatoes, and apricots, and many households engage in weaving and knitting. With the construction of the Karakoram Highway and the increase in domestic and international tourism, many residents have also started guest houses and tourism-related businesses.
Tourism and Attractions
Gulmit is a gateway to many tourist destinations in Gojal. Visitors use the village as a base to explore Passu Glacier, Borith Lake, and the nearby villages of Hussaini and Ghulkin. The famous Hussaini Suspension Bridge, often labeled one of the most dangerous bridges in the world, is just a short drive away and draws adventurous travelers.
In spring, the valley comes alive with blossoms of apricot, cherry, and apple trees, offering a breathtaking display of colors. In autumn, the foliage turns golden, creating another spectacular visual experience.
Challenges and Resilience
Despite its natural and cultural richness, Gulmit faces challenges such as harsh winters, limited access to healthcare, and the impacts of climate change. The community, however, remains resilient. Through education, cooperative efforts, and support from development organizations, the people of Gulmit continue to improve their living conditions while preserving their unique heritage.
Conclusion
Gulmit is not just a village—it is a living testament to the harmony between nature, culture, and tradition. For those who seek tranquility, authenticity, and the charm of mountain life, Gulmit offers an experience that is both humbling and unforgettable.
Certainly. Here’s a poetic portrayal of Gulmit—a lyrical tribute to its soul, landscape, and spirit:
—
Gulmit – The Song of the Mountains
Beneath the watch of heaven’s gate,
Where peaks in silent splendor wait,
Lies Gulmit, cradled soft and high,
A whisper in the mountain sky.
The Hunza’s heart, both old and wise,
Where rivers hum and eagles rise,
Its fields like verses, green and wide,
Where apricots and dreams abide.
The stone-laid paths, the wind’s refrain,
Tell tales of joy, of loss, of rain,
Of kings who ruled from summer thrones,
Now echoes in the watchtower’s bones.
The Wakhi songs drift through the air,
Of woven threads and mother’s care,
Of carpets dyed in love and flame,
Each stitch a prayer, each knot a name.
Oh Gulmit, land of grace and lore,
Your silence sings forevermore—
With every dawn, your soul does shine,
A sacred hymn in ancient rhyme.
Attabad’s mirror, cold and clear,
Reflects your strength, your hidden tear.
You’ve known the quake, the loss, the slide—
Yet still you stand with fearless pride.
The children laugh, the old still teach,
With books and faith within their reach.
They build not just from stone or clay,
But from the hope of each new day.
O’ traveler, rest beneath her trees,
Let Gulmit’s calm your spirit ease.
For here, the sky meets earth in peace—
And time itself begins to cease.

You don’t attract. You don’t seek. You wait, and they come. Something in you pulls them. Not your words. Not your eyes. Something beneath that. A soft gravity. A current they can’t see. It moves through your stillness. It hums in your silence. They notice you before you speak. Especially then. You don’t attract. You pull fate in.

Magnetism – lonely (intense connections, but not always reciprocated or understood) and complex (the nature of these connections; both nurturing or challenging, reflecting different aspects of ourselves) to define our own identity as a person, and for others to grasp, appreciate, and understand. None-the-less, magnetism compares to how fire entices insects to fly into the flames.
Fate: Personal Destiny in a persons life walk-path. Events, relationships, and experiences astrological influences shaped through personal choices within Life’s Big Picture. Attraction – like basic instincts in animals vs. Pulling, a far more profound connection – like family which speaks to the soul. Less a physical allure, it compliments long standing emotional memories. Presence: your design shaped by your astrological chart and life experiences; and Stillness – a quiet, a grounded confidence: ‘safe space’ for others. It does not require words for it to express this ‘safe space’ sweet smelling perfume. Echoes and Memory, refers to something like your future born children. Energies we share can leave a legacy, shaping not only our lives but also the lives of those who come after us. Energy Exchange, a dynamic interaction between individuals. A healthy sharing relationship with trusted friends.
Astrology and Chinese Taoist thought work in harmony with meditation. Which contrasts the in-haled breath with the exhaled breath. Zen Buddhism refers to the ‘3rd Eye’ as a reference to a focused awareness of the 5 senses “seen” (so to speak) between the eyes during the duration of the inhaled breath. Meditation “feels” the chi expressed within the external reality of living during the duration of the exhaled breath. This meditation seeks to achieve a conscious Mind awareness both internally felt and externally experienced. Hence Taoism has the 5 breath “souls”, in conjuction with the 5 designated feelings – and they all align with the 5 elements of the Universe.
Unlike Astrology, both Chinese and Japanese healing makes its central focus – awareness of precise meridian points and lines rather that Planets and Stars shining in the Heavens above. The shared common denominator which unites the two contrasting disciplines — meditation. Both disciplines which lack meditation compare to positive and negative Torah commandments which have no tohor time-oriented commandment potential to elevate secondary commandments and halachot unto Av tohor time-oriented commandments from the Torah.
For example: The so-called daughter religions of Xtianity and Islam – both remain Av tuma avoda zarah examples of the 2nd Sinai Commandment. These religions employ their own separate but unique ‘replacement theologies’, which supplants T’NaCH, Talmud, Midrashim and Siddur – along with the power of Astrology of Planets and Stars – with Creed based belief systems. Such as belief in some pie in the sky Universal God monotheism! This theology employed to supplant T’NaCH, Talmud, Midrashim, and Siddur.
For example: The Apostle Paul declared Torah commandments like circumcision archaic and invalid. Reform Judaism pulled a similar rabbit out of its hat of magik. The Pauline rhetoric declared that Goyim “not under the Law”; an utterly absurd statement because all societies and civilization require the Order of law and government. Furthermore, the Pauline propaganda, much like Obamo’s 2008 political “CHANGE” declarations made no distinction between T’NaCH & Talmudic judicial common law Legislative Review, which has over-view of all laws passed by Legislatures or Kings; from legal statute law – decrees, issued from some Roman Senate or a Caesar bureaucratic regulatory dictatorship.
Jewish common law depends upon lateral common law courtrooms rather than Greek political rhetoric which promotes ‘Democracy’. Democracy has no place in T’NaCH and Talmudic lateral common law courtrooms. The people pay for ‘Legal Insurance’ which maintains these common law Courts – when not actively engaged in any legal dispute heard before these common law Courtrooms. The Torah refers to vertical courtrooms as bribery; a Torah abomination for the State to pay the salary of Court Justices and prosecuting attorneys.
Following the corruption made by the British Star-Courts which legalized British navel impressment of American sailors seized from American ships in High Seas ‘international waters’. The Founding Fathers attempted to address the issue of Judicial bribery by and through the State. They established the lateral jury system. But the otherwise vertical courtrooms, where the State pays the salaries of the Judges and Prosecuting Attorneys, American judicial law bi-passed the lateral jury court revolutionary approach, by imposing strict terms which limit the scope of how the jury weighs introduced legal evidence/precedents by the opposing lawyers briefs.
Lawyers do not present their legal briefs to the Jury. Rather, the vertical courts restrict presentation of these opposing legal briefs, which only the State paid judges can review. Hence while the Founding Fathers attempted to establish lateral courtrooms, later generations corrupted the revolutionary lateral jury judicial system. And replaced it with just another vertical court having bribed Judges and Prosecuting Attorneys.
Its extremely important to publish opposition within the GOP, (screw the DemonCrapic Party and the MSM propaganda press) concerning our President Trump’s well deserved and rejoiced 2nd Administration. Personally, for me, I emotionally support President Trump. Non-the-less, its extremely important to publish GOP and even democratic party opposition.

Sh*t That Ain’t True – Mark Warner on Tulsi Gabbard
The Russian Hoax allegations and the Epstein sex scandal – indeed separate issues, each with its own context and implications. The Russian Hoax allegations primarily revolve around the integrity of the electoral process and potential foreign interference, while the Epstein scandal deals with serious criminal behavior related to sexual exploitation.
Investigations into the Russian allegations were led by the Mueller Report, which sought to determine the extent of Russian interference and any collusion with the Trump campaign. The Epstein scandal has led to multiple investigations and legal actions against those involved in his network, focusing on accountability for sexual abuse.
Mark Kelly, a Democratic Senator from Arizona, attempts to equate the Russia-Gate Hoax with the Epstein files. Kelly opposed Gabbard from the get-go.
Sen. Mark Kelly Raises Red Flags on Tulsi Gabbard’s Nomination: National Security Concerns
On July 2019 Jeffrey Epstein was arrested on federal charges of sex trafficking minors. His arrest and subsequent “suicide” caused an ongoing scrutiny of the Trump Administration’s ties to Epstein, though not directly linked to Russia-Gate. The Trump Administration faced no direct legal pressure related to Epstein until after the Russia-Gate allegations began to unfold! Therefore Mark Kelly employs the Epstein files as a red herring to deflect away from the Watergate Hoax scandal and the ultimate disgrace of the Obama Administration.
This Red Herring tactic of linking various scandals, a common denominator employed in political rhetoric, aimed at reactionary uneducated television views. Where these Democrapic opponents of President Trump seek to shift their skewed narratives, in order to focus public attention away from embarrassing political disgraces – such as the Russia-Gate Hoax Scandal.
Jim Himes, another Democrat calls the Russia Hoax accusations – “baseless”. Its important to remember the CNN Fake News reporting 8 years ago.
Jake Tapper: Trump’s world untethered to facts
Jake Tapper, his new book, “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, Its Cover-Up, and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again,” co-authored with Alex Thompson. The book explores the alleged concealment of President Biden’s cognitive decline by his inner circle and the implications of this for his 2024 re-election campaign. Tapper argues that Biden’s aides and family members were aware of his declining health but chose to support his decision to run for re-election, despite concerns about how this would affect his campaign and the Democratic Party.
CNN has made several programming adjustments, including moving Tapper’s show to a later time and removing other anchors from their positions, but Tapper remains a prominent figure at the network. Jake Tapper remains with CNN and continues to host his show, despite the network’s recent programming which demoted the importance of his shows.
CNN ratings have never recovered from its rabid hostility and biased news coverage of the first Trump Administration. The MSM socialist Pravda-like propaganda, lead by NBC, CBS, ABC and CNN Fake News, has witnessed a serious decline in earnings and influence.
The Fake News MSM legacy media promotes to this day a Yellow Journalism that prioritizes copy selling sensationalism over hard copy objective journalism. The expulsion of President Trump from Twitter prior to the 2020 elections inspired Elon Musk to acquire X and fire the vast majority of Twitter parasite slugs. The concealing of the Hunter Biden laptop scandal by the FBI and the MSM press significantly influenced the 2020 Presidential elections.
The FBI’s involvement in the investigation of the laptop raised concerns about the intersection of law enforcement and political narratives, with critics arguing that it contributed to a lack of accountability in media reporting. Many individuals express frustration with what they perceive as a lack of integrity in journalism, leading to calls for more accountability and a return to objective reporting standards.
The complexity of the current Obama Trump political struggle forced me to amplify my original critique? Did Obama order the two assassination attempts on Trump?

Did Obama and Hillery use false intelligence, the Steele report, to discredit Trump’s election victory? Did senior officials from the FBI and CIA support the Russia interference false alligations? The Epstein scandal has nothing to do with the Russian hoax of 2016. That’s a Red Herring. What “multiple investigations have confirmed Russian interference in the 2016 election? What information has Gabbard “cherry-picked”?
The Steele Dossier came from the Clinton’s election team. The Democrats employed the false Steele Dossier to open investigations on the Trump team. No question the Steele dossier served as a Democratic attack point used to challenge the Trump ’16 victory.
The Mueller Report exonerated Trump. You cannot accuse Gabbard of cherry picking information and not bring any evidence of “cherry picked” evidence. That’s another Red Herring.
Whether the Kremlin sought to influence the ’16 election has absolutely nothing what so ever to do with the Trump election campaign. Cherry-Picking accusations post the 3 plus years of Russia Hoax do not mean squat. Name the evidence. Put up or shut up.
Fusion GPS supports the Gabbard allegations made against both Obama and Clinton. The Mueller Report based its investigations upon Fusion GPS lies. How does Gabbard “selectively interpret” evidence. Name the evidence. No evidence exists that the Trump election team worked in collusion with Russia.
The Steele Dossier corrupt from the start, regardless if various unnamed sources implicated in the Clinton hoax scandal. Russian interference in the ’16 elections a Red Herring. It has nothing to do with the Trump team in ’16. Emphasizing A vs. downplaying or ignoring B absolutely requires naming both A and B.
Vague declarations of how different parties emphasize or downplay aspects of the investigations absolutely require specifics not broad general statements unsupported by factual evidence. That’s propaganda. The Mueller Report did not establish a conspiracy or coordination between the Trump Team and the Russian Government.
Candidate Clinton utterly disgraced and humiliated. Documented Russian interference efforts has absolutely nothing to do with the Trump team anymore than with the Clinton team. Russia operates independent of both Trump and Clinton. The accusation the Democrats made against Trump following the ’16 elections – a simple Red Herring.
The Mueller Report with its conclusions that no evidence of conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia starkly contrasts with the political slander which the MSM press lead by Rachel Maddow and Late Night “comedy” shows. That Russia employed social media and hacking, no different than the US doing the exact same thing against Russia and virtually all other countries across the Planet.
Both Obama and Clinton sought to make a coup against President Trump’s election victory. US spy agencies sow discord in the political systems of Foreign governments. Especially hostile Foreign governments! Social media directly caused the Arab Spring revolutions which caused the Middle East to go into political anarchy and Civil Wars!
Because the Mueller Report found no evidence of conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia then the “baseless” declarations made by Obama and his supporters which seeks to minimize the damage to the reputations of these treason traitor criminals – the only thing “baseless”.
Rachel Maddow and other bought and paid for supporters of Obama and Clinton openly employed slander to politically assassinate the Good Name of President Trump and his election team. The Mueller Report conclusions utterly refutes the ’25 Obama and supporters slander and political assassination attempts.
Did Obama cross the line and order the two assassination attempts made on Candidate Trump prior to the ’24 elections? Does US intelligence spy on the America people through FaceBook and other social media platforms? Obviously, its an undisputed reality that the FBI and CIA and NSA, post the 9/11 Chaney/Bush Patriot Act have operated outside the bounds established by the US Constitution. Bush himself referred to the Constitution as just a GD piece of paper!
Obama and his allies engaged in slander to undermine Trump’s legitimacy. The narrative that figures like Rachel Maddow and others have engaged in slander against Trump. These subversive media figures have perpetuated a narrative of collusion without sufficient evidence, contributing to a broader campaign to discredit Trump.
The revelations by whistleblowers, such as Edward Snowden, highlighted the extent of surveillance programs that collect data from social media and other platforms. This has raised significant debates about privacy rights and government overreach. The quote attributed to George W. Bush regarding the Constitution reflects a sentiment among some critics that national security concerns have been prioritized over civil liberties.
Obama and his allies engaged in slander to undermine Trump’s legitimacy. Rachel Maddow engaged in slander to undermine Trump’s legitimacy.
Whistleblowers like Edward Snowden revealed extensive surveillance programs that collect data from social media. The debate over the balance between civil liberties and national security, particularly post-9/11, the Obama-Clinton treason have conclusively without a shred of doubt proven.
The disgraced legacy media with its False News merits total and absolute contempt. The revelations by Edward Snowden brought to light the extent of government surveillance, raising concerns about privacy rights. The collection of data from social media by the FBI, CIA, NSA etc., demands to restrict and radically curtail these utterly corrupt bureaucracies which have no accountability to the voting American people.

Dear Martha
It is unimaginable to live a day without reading your blog post. This post is one such example that made my day significant.
Thanks for liking my post, ‘Castaway’. 🙏
Human society not flat, nor a טיפש פשט mythology.
The zionist experiment of democracy faces some criticism by Jews such as myself who favor restoration of a Torah constitutional Republic which mandates a lateral Sanhedrin common law courts to regulate all laws passed by Jerusalem and the state legislatures of the 12 Tribes. Imposing Judicial Legislative Review upon Sanhedrin common law courtrooms with the Mandated Constitutional power to conduct trials which judge Capital Crimes offenses, and impose 4 different types of death penalties, dependent upon the nature of the Capital crimes committed. And equally vital and important דיוק inference to judging Capital Crimes Cases: To judge the leadership responsible for Federal and State governments; based through evidence of laws bureaucratically imposed by government authority officials — viewed through the lenses of prophetic משנה תורה-Legislative Review.
The prioritization of lateral common law Sanhedrin courtrooms over institutional machinery of governance, which directly includes government leadership positions within these institutions of government, this essential clause defines, separates, and make unique Jewish political science. Faith: the Torah defines as justice justice pursue; a direct reference to lateral Sanhedrin common law courtrooms having the mandate of ‘Legislative Review’ over all governments – Jerusalem or any tribal/state legislature.
Democracy or democratic institutions not part of the Jewish cultural traditions. Democratic mob rule, a Greek idea and not a Jewish cultural concept. Leaders “anointed” under the pre-condition that they will faithfully pursue justice as the rule of law. As in all Human endeavors, the humanity of Man, the ideal and the practical realities – a wide gap separates the two. When a leader sufficiently abuses his leadership mandate a prophet, representative of the Sanhedrin Court, impeaches that leader and replaces him with another. The stories in the Book of Judges and Samuel and Kings, which pits, for example: Shaul against David, serve as precedent models which separate Ordered societies from chaotic societies collapsing into a state of anarchy.
Imposition of some grand Cathedral, Soloman Temple – like institutions comparable the newest Federal Reserve building in the US, the graphic porn of pork graft in government that has no shame – within any given civilization. Institutions compare to people that bow down and worship idols. Buildings of wood and stone do not promise efficient good governance. Public expenditure of taxes to build such grand structures of Egoism, they serve witness to a stratification of aristocratic feudal Lord/peasant economic anarchy; which imposes wealth and justifies ‘might make right’ judicial injustice, oppression, theft, and even taboo incest or murder.
Contrast the IDF with its direct linkage with power projection through Foreign Policy. Ideally Foreign Policy plays second fiddle to domestic Home Rule. But often the nature of the Humanity of Man, Foreign Policies prioritized over Domestic Policies. This Yatzir Ha’Rah, once more its power seduction dominates the dynamic “ideal vs actual”; this gap separates the vision of governance from the cruel reality – that all men sit and crap on toilets, and it stinks. The Human potential NEVER achieves the Human ideal messiah.
NT mythology no different than Homer’s Iliad, and Odyssey. Hesiod’s Theogony and Works and Days. Aeschylus’s The Orestia. Sophocles Oedipus Rus. Euripides Medea etc etc these Greek myth stories, they compare to how Xtians worship their silly sophomoric bible translations which depict a messiah savior that rises from the judicial oppression grave and saves all Humanity — despite the Caesar Son of Gods – the personification of Hercules/JeZeus in flesh, blood & History.
The fly in this ever so sweet ointment, myths do not actually make and determine history. As history does not shape and determine modern life today in any society in all the annuls of Humans living on this Earth. Worshipping history as God the exact same idolatry as worshipping Shlomo’s or Herod’s Temples made of wood and stone. Institutionalized buildings, no matter the cost of their construction does not and never has produced the righteous pursuit of judicial common law justice.
Very beautiful place!
