Gurus in Modern India

 

Heart and Soul looks at what it means to be a guru and

to have a guru in today's big-spending, upwardly

mobile India. It's sixty years since India became an

independent country - the economy is rising and the

Indian middle classes are growing - but so are the

number of people seeking out spiritual leaders. Gurus

have been part of Indian life for thousands of years,

acting as spiritual guides on earth.

 

In the first of two programmes on gurus in modern

India, Renu Agal discovers how they have become big

business, and how they are repackaging their

spirituality in response to the stresses and strains

of living in the 21st century.
