After a brief intro of part of Suprabhatam and nagasankirtan,
we move to 45 minutes of beautiful, slow-motion shots
of
darshan in the early 1990s. Swami is radiant
and full of love and smiles, and the devotion of
everyone is evident. Halfway through the video, the
exquisite, moving music "How I love thee" intensifies
the devotion one feels from watching "style3 Eve and "Silent
Night". |
