Short Cut to Nirvana: Kumbh Mela (2004)
It was amazing how my opinions changed
11 April 2005 - 2 out of 2 users found this review helpful.
I noticed that throughout the movie I thought "how could 70 million people gather and not be unhappy with the dirt, crowds, and noise?" But to the contrary, there was a lot of fun being had. My favorite were the Gurus who expounded on Love, and had the penetrating intelligence to not sound spaced out or whimsical, as we like to dismiss "gurus" these days. I highly recommend this movie as it contains relevant information about the survival of the human race.
During some parts, I felt as if I were in an altered state of consciousness, under the spell of peace and love being radiated by the people and the Kumbh Mela itself. There were humorous aspects, notably the incredible diversity of the Gurus India has to offer.
