Synopsis
This spiritual journey sees conservationist Satish Kumar spend one year exploring the beauty of England's Dartmoor National Park - the largest and wildest area of open country in southern England. The film pays homage to the heather-covered moors and deep-wooded gorges, craggy granite outcrops known as tors, and the wonderful variety of wildlife that has made this place home. Satish, a former Jain monk from Rajasthan, acts as a guide to this remarkable environment, presenting the sacred beauty of the forests, rivers and moors in a very new light.

Waiting eagerly for this DVD. This was such an amazing programme. I love Dartmoor and this programme takes us through a year on the moor through the eyes of Satish Kumar. through watching this problem I discovered new places to visit.
Satish Kumar is inspirational . He radiates peace and calm.
This programme works on two levels for me, the first a lovely film about Dartmoor and on the second its relaxing, medititative. *****

I have been searching high and low for this 50 minute revelation that An Earth Pilgrim was when I first saw it. Satish Kumar communicates his wonder at and total respect for nature in ways that echoed deeply with my own, non-religious, belief system. If like me, you have the intuition that we should take more care of the planet we live on, but sometimes lack the ability to express it eloquently, you will find Satish tells it in a very powerful and beautiful way. He simply makes so much sense.

I have just watched this beautiful film on UK TV Docs. The photography is stunning and Satish Kumar's narration is deeply moving.
It reminded me how much I miss Dartmoor now that I have moved away.
