Prajna Earth
Description
Prajna is the Sanskrit word for radiant wisdom, and yatra is the word for pilgrimage or spiritual journey. This visually stunning second documentary is a cinematic pilgrimage exploring the lost civilization of Angkor in Cambodia, including the largest temple in the world: the magnificent Angkor Wat. The journey continues to sacred sites of the natural world, traveling through Hindu Bali, witnessing trance dancers in the jungles of Java, and discovering the gigantic seven-level mandala wonder of Buddhist Borobudur. Prajna Earth visits spiritual intersections where Buddhist and Hindu wisdom traditions merged with the animist worship of nature, revealing a profound understanding of sacred nature existing both in the environment and within all living beings.
