Yatra is the Sanskrit word for pilgrimage or spiritual journey. These three visually stunning documentaries are cinematic pilgrimages to legendary places in Southeast Asia and Tibet, including the spiritual wonders of Laos, Thailand, Burma, Bali, Cambodia, Java and Central Tibet.
Journey into the living traditions and lost civilizations of this vibrant part of the world and explore the universal ideals of wisdom, compassion and inner peace at the very heart of these ancient Buddhist cultures.
The living presence of place is the primary focus of these lyrical films which are meditations themselves. Their deliberate pacing, unobtrusive narration, indigenous music and harmonic chants are designed to induce an inner journey while traveling to these legendary places. Viewers are invited to relax and let the experience wash over them, making the trilogy part of their own journey.
My Thoughts
Buddhism is a spiritual path centered around inner experience and realizations. In this DVD, includes three different documentaries centering around a pilgrimage to some of the most sacred places tied to Buddhism. The DVD includes three journeys including:
Dharma River - Visit spiritual river and temples in Thailand, Laos and Myanma.
Prana Earth - Visit a lost civilization in Cambodia and the Angkor Wat temple.
Vajra Sky Over Tibet - This final documentary shows you the life of the Tibetan monks and the very real threats they face.
Buddhism has a long history and the spiritual path is quickly growing throughout the world. This DVD helps us understand Buddhism by examining the basic teachings and moral aspects. It makes it easier to comprehend the mysteries behind this unique religion. If you'd like to grab a copy of this amazing documentary set for yourself, you can find it online on Amazon or at PBS.org.

Some of the Buddhism ideas are really interesting but I'm not that a spiritual person
Buddhism is an amazing religion, but it does not answer everyday questions, only about something global. I often turn to psychics for help. In the past, I was skeptical about this and believed that real psychics did not exist, but the advice from the article on the website kasamba helped me highlight a few points, according to which I can now find a really good specialist who will give me practical advice that will definitely come in handy.
