- 20041h 18mNot Rated7.5 (1K)The modern suburbs have ultimately become an unsustainable way of living. They were originally developed in an era of cheap oil, when the automobile became the center of the way people lived and an era when people wanted to escape the inner city to a more pastoral or rural way of life. However the suburbs quickly evolved into a merely a place to live that had neither the benefits of rural or urban life, and where one was reliant on an automobile both to travel elsewhere and even travel within the neighborhood. The suburbs are not only dependent upon cheap energy, but also reliable energy. The reliability of energy is becoming less so as demonstrated by the multi-day blackout of the North American Eastern Seaboard starting on August 14, 2003. Part of the problem of getting out of the suburban mentality is that a generation has grown up believing it to be a normal way of life, and a life of entitlement, which they will not give up without a fight. But many developers and planners and some of the general public understand the want and need to make the way the collective we live in a more walkable and humanistic manner.

- Born into a world of wealth and privilege, he devotes his life to eliminating poverty and inequality. A religious leader who traces his ancestry back to the Prophet Muhammad, he struggles to balance the traditional with the modern. His Highness the Aga Khan is the spiritual leader of Ismaili Muslims, a Shia sect with 15 million followers around the world. At a time when Islam is at odds with itself and with the West, the Aga Khan represents a voice of moderation, speaking out for pluralism and diversity, and promoting dialogue between civilizations. But will he be heard? The Film: The Ismailis are a people without a homeland. An oft-persecuted minority within Islam, they are scattered across more than 30 countries. The program shows how many Ismailis came to the West when they were forced out of Uganda by Idi Amin. It was the current Aga Khan's grandfather, Sultan Muhammed Shah Aga Khan, who created the Ismaili community as we know it today. Though a reputation for high living often overshadowed his achievements, he encouraged Ismailis to build modern institutions, promoted the education of women, and built a network of charities, schools and hospitals in the developing world. In his will, he named his 20-year-old grandson, Prince Karim, as his successor, believing that Ismailis needed a leader who had grown up in the modern world - an Imam for "the atomic age." The Aga Khan prefers to let his development work speak for itself. He has resisted participating in documentaries for over forty-five years and has rarely given interviews. This documentary secured both. AN ISLAMIC CONSCIENCE reveals how this shy and studious young man became one of the world's most respected faith leaders, tending to the spiritual lives of his followers while also operating one of the most important aid organizations in the world: the Aga Khan Development Foundation, which employs 70,000 people and invests more than $400 million in development aid every year. For the Aga Khan, social improvement, pluralism and intellectual advancement are integral aspects of the Islamic faith but his message is being drowned out by the rise of militant fundamentalist Islam. He struggles to act as a force for moderation, and to establish bridges between Islam and the West. It remains to be seen if this battle can be won.

- Spiritual Gardens examines gardens that were created specifically for spiritual reasons; gardens where the people who use the garden and the people who work in the garden gain far more than just the experience of creating a beautiful or bountiful place. They are taken to a space where they undergo a metamorphosis that leaves them spiritually changed just by spending time in the garden. The series looks at how the originators and gardeners went about creating these special places. The thought processes behind the gardens; the choice of plants and the affect of the layout. Viewers will see how the design transforms not just the gardener but the people who use the gardens as places of rest, relaxation and mental and spiritual growth. We look at what makes the gardens work, what makes the garden outlast its creators and what the gardeners derived from the simple act of creating the gardens. Most of all, we try to find out why the gardens were created, what the creators hoped to get from it and the qualities of human nature that find expression and fulfillment in the place and activity of gardening.
- For thousands of years, in all cultures and religions, people have been describing their mystical states and experiences. As a mystical experience, "KUNDALINI" can be described as "self-realization" dissolution of personal boundaries with a sense of becoming one with other people, with nature, the universe and God - the center of all creation. The word "KUNDALINI" originates in the pre-Vedic form of Hinduism. It represents the all-powerful cosmic energy, unifying both the physical and spiritual aspects of our existence. Yet, peak experiences are not only part of our religious past. On the contrary, they are described by many modern psychologists as a unique state in the evolution of the human psyche. If allowed to reach their natural completion, they typically result in a better function of the body and a fuller capacity to express one's creative potential.
