Smiles from off the road

A friend of mine makes beautiful movies about India. I won't add too much, just enjoy. There isn't much more I can add to what Chinmaya has to say:

I have just made a new short film, "SMILES FROM OFF THE ROAD". It's full of the most gorgeous smiles and laughter, a project very close to my heart.....
I'll be happy if you watch the first part and pass on the link.

"Walk away from any road in India for a day or so, and you will find people who are still untouched by Western values. People who seem to love life; who still have the humanity to welcome strangers; who still have time to smile.
Western society seems to be in a crisis of greed, crime, alcohol and drug abuse, obesity and depression.

Perhaps we have something to learn?"

"They are some of the most beautiful people in the world, they should be preserved. They are the only happy people - they know how to dance, how to sing and how to love and how to enjoy life. They don't philosophize, they don't know arithmetic.....but they still have being, they still have grace..."
Osho 'This Very Body the Buddha'

Much love from monsoon Goa
