Guest guest Posted February 21, 2004 Report Share Posted February 21, 2004 Thpught this would be of interest. As I recall, Sy is a rudraksha expert. -- Len/ Kalipadma --------- Forwarded message ---------- "Shiva Bhakta" <shivabhakta Happened to see "Rudraksha"...looks like the very first main stream Hindi movie that deals with the chakras, the power of Rudrakshas, powers of the divine - presented in a very commercial manner. Takes the mantra tantra mythology etc etc in a matter of fact manner, and runs with the plot - lots of shlokas and mantras are the background score and movie producers/directors seem to be followers of Lord Shiva. Story line is the battle of good over evil but lots of techno-glitz and special effects, something there for everyone, catered to the masses. Movie starts at a point that is connected to the Great Lanka War (Ramayana), seemingly inspired from Indiana Jones. Seeks to portray divinity in a very different light, in comparison to the traditional Indian movies...very differently to a point where it might not be acceptable to some.. I think this might very well lead to a resurgence of the populace to pursue the divine. (haven't finished watching it). This is a new release Hindi movie which is available off the local Indian DVD rental (Yes, http://www.Netflix.com does carry Hindi movies). DVDs have subtitles. If you are mildly curious, might be worth a see. Shiva Bhakta ______________ The best thing to hit the Internet in years - Juno SpeedBand! Surf the Web up to FIVE TIMES FASTER!
