- This 8min. intro sets the mood and pace for a feature documentary yet to be released - sponsors wanted.
Ninety kilometres south of New Delhi in North India, set amidst the twelve forests of Vraj, is a long, narrow, and intriguing hill. Roughly ten kilometres long, and barely a hundred meters wide, Govardhan Hill enjoys the odd privilege of having throngs of pilgrims walk around it day and night, seven days a week, summer and winter, three hundred-sixty-five days a year.
Religious Scriptures and tradition suggest that five thousand years ago Krishna, in a playful and exquisite form as a cowherd boy sported on these slopes with his playmates, with the cows and calves, and danced with the milkmaids of his village.
Ever since then the hill has been a place of pilgrimage. But in the late nineteen sixties, there arose a dramatic surge of interest in the Vraj area as a whole, and at Govardhan Hill in particular. For the first time the pilgrims were no longer just Indians.
This intro is first in a series of shorts that will be uploaded at regular intervals on this channel. Your feedback is welcome.
