Guest guest Posted November 15, 2003 Report Share Posted November 15, 2003 Mystic India - New Film On Child Yogi Neelkanthhttp://www.mysticindiathefilm.comINDIA, November 14, 2003: Mystic India is a new film produced by BAPS Swaminarayan Sanstha. Billed as the world's first large format epic on India, this period film, set 200 years back in time, retraces an incredible journey of inspiration, according to the press release. A trailer for the film is available at "source." The release goes on, "An adventure of hardships, survival and heroism undertaken by a child. Mystic India rediscovers India, her culture and way of life. For thousands of years, many have left their homes and set off across this spiritual land on a spiritual quest; to share the meaning of life that would elevate the rest of humanity. Of all such journeys, perhaps none is greater than the true story of an 11-year old child yogi, Neelkanth. From 1792 to 1799, Neelkanth walked alone, barefoot and barebody, 7,500 miles for 7 years through the length and breadth of India. Carrying no maps, no food and no clothing, how he crossed the rivers, faced dangerous animals and survived the freezing winter of the Himalayas, is still a mystery. In March-May 2003, the Mystic India production team traveled to 52 different film locations in India, re-creating the adventures of Neelkanth (now known to us as Lord Swaminarayan). Capturing dazzling images and scenes, the film transports the audience to some of India's most sacred and treasured destinations." Mystic India is scheduled for release in 2004.
