Here's something that is hard to describe. It's sort of a Oasis from nonduality(too much of a good thing is not good)
For the few that stayed and have fun watching I certainly did.

Following on the hippie theme that we seem to have going this week, here’s the 2006 Swiss documentary Hippie Masala, directed by filmmaker Ulrich Grossenbacher and anthropologist Damaris Lüthi, that looks at the “aging flower children who, after fleeing Western civilization, found a new home in India.” In the film’s own words: “In the 1960s and 1970s thousands of hippies journeyed East in the search for enlightenment, free drugs or a ‘pure’ life. Indian peasants assumed that a severe drought in the West was the reason for their migration. India’s holy men saw it, more accurately, as a search for spirituality. Most moved back to their home countries after a few months or years. Some stayed for good.”
