Kabir and kumar gandharva

Here is a beautiful documentry on Kabir and kumar gandharva. It presents kabir as a living tradition in north india. Documentry also sheds good light on how our favoraite singer kumarji opened himself to the world of Nirguan nirakaar. The adversities he faced in life found a natural orifice in the sublime depth of kabir's words.


Its a must watch! Suddenly it reminds me of the book I had read recently, "bend in the sarayu" and author's accounts of encountering the rustic india, the mystical india, the india which creates, the unread-scholars, the de-sanskritized poets etc. etc. I want to watch a similar movie or film on Vemana. Any clue you can give me? Nari? Ramaji ?
