The Soul of a People

India and the Infinite

All of the world's great religions are practiced in India. It was in India that Buddha achieved enlightenment; it is in India that belief in reincarnation originated.

Narrator Huston Smith, renowned scholar of world religions, takes the viewer through a country of infinite variety. His commentary brings into focus great religious and secular art and architecture and explores both the sensuality and asceticism present in this remarkable people.
