  • Awarded 'Best Film' at the Delhi Documentary Film Festival in 2001, this movie was inspired by a text taken from "The Renaissance in India" by Sri Aurobindo, the great poet and revolutionary. It is not a study of ancient India (although it does analyse the powers of the ancient spirit of India) but it is rather a very precise description of the instruments that are at the disposal of India for building her future:
    "Spirituality is indeed the master-key of the Indian mind; the sense of the infinite is native to it. India saw from the beginning, - and, even in her ages of reason and her age of increasing ignorance, she never lost hold of the insight, - that life cannot be rightly seen in the sole light, cannot be perfectly lived in the sole power of its externalities. She was alive to the greatness of material laws and forces; she had a keen eye for the importance of the physical sciences; she knew how to organise the arts of ordinary life. But she saw that the physical does not get its full sense until it stands in right relation to the supra-physical; she saw that the complexity of the universe could not be explained in the present terms of man or seen by his superficial sight, that there were other powers behind, other powers within man himself of which he is normally unaware, that he is conscious only of a small part of himself, that the invisible always surrounds the visible, the suprasensible the sensible, even as infinity always surrounds the finite. "
    Sri Aurobindo

    This is really a wonderful video!
    The singing voices are great and flying beyond that what you can see. I have never been in India (in this life) - but I see and feel the things there like it is described in the texts. Nowadays India is going through an extreme materialistic way of life - but as its spirituality has continued for thousands of years - this spirituality will flood through the land again after the breakdown of this wrong kind of materialism.
    Greetings from Europe - Austria! I am dedicating to an own, personal, individual yoga by studying the Bible, starting to study the Gita (interpretet by Paramahansa Yogananda), doing meditations and connecting with nature and its living beings. I try to learn the old Hebrew-language of the Bible and intend to learn a bit of Sanskrit too - just to chant some Mantras. (I once had a dream of a man in the Himalayas chanting Mantras. That impressed me very much. He gave me a Mantra to train with - but when I awoke - I forgot the Mantra!) Thanks for the video!
