Adivarapupeta 1963 is edited from two color films, one eight and the other ten minutes long, taken shortly before Shri Swamiji left Adivarapupeta as a yogi for the first time. The scenes show Swamiji in procession through the village street, numerous devotees in bhava samadhi, devotees parading Swamiji’s photograph through the village, and extremely beautiful shots of Swamiji on his asana in samadhi and with eyes open. The original films have no soundtrack, so the sounds are from Swamiji’s last return to Adivarapupeta in 1994 when he was taken in procession through the village, and bhajans recorded in Adivarapupeta. (17:30 minutes)

Early 8mm Films is edited from twenty minutes of 8mm color films taken between 1965 and the early 1970’s. They show programs and mass feedings in 1965 at Madras, Shri Swamiji giving darshan at the Bannerghatta Road ashram in Bangalore, the Adivarapupeta ashram, and Shri Swamiji at the ashram in Sambhar Lake in Rajastan, North India. (15:42 minutes)

One Year Tapas is taken from two films taken at the Bannerghatta Road ashram, Bangalore, on August 7, 1969, the day Shri Swamiji completed one year of tapas for world peace. One film is black & white and about thirteen minutes. The other is color and about twenty-three minutes. The scenes include the crowds (estimated by newspaper reporters to be over a hundred thousand), bhajans and devotees in bhava samadhi, and Shri Swamiji giving darshan. (24:32 minutes)

Madras 1970 is taken from an eighteen minute color film entitled “Camp at Hemamalani, Madras, December 10-15, 1970.” The scenes include Shri Swamiji giving darshan at various programs, devotees performing pada puja (washing the feet) to Swamiji, and Swamiji visiting a cloth merchant’s business. (17:04 minutes)

J. P. Nagar Ashram is edited from two black & white films, roughly twelve minutes each, taken at the main Shivabalayogi ashram in Bangalore shortly after Swamiji opened it on August 7, 1977.  The scenes include either a birthday or tapas anniversary function, with Swamiji performing a homa fire offering and giving darshan.  There is also a scene with Swamiji giving darshan in his private room.  (17:55 minutes)

Reservoir Blessing There were several occasions when Shri Swamiji brought rains to break severe droughts in the Deccan plateau of South India.  He would visit almost dry reservoirs where he would sit in samadhi, then shortly the rains would begin.  Reservoir Blessing is taken from a ten minute, black & white film probably taken in the late 1970’s, and shows Swamiji visiting a reservoir in the Bangalore area, blessing it, and bathing in it.  (8:45 minutes)
