The movie moves at the pace of the culture into which these folks have embedded themselves, which is nice and kind of lulling. I am awed by their willingness to up and leave it all behind, but also can't help but feel that they are co-opting this culture in an almost let's-get-dressed-up-and-play-India manner. I suppose though if they're there for decades, that is not the case. They mention at the beginning how all the other hippies soon went back to the west after their own spiritual/seeking sojourn. These are those who went all in. I feel a sudden urge to meditate.
