Here is William Dalrymple’s 1998 award winning documentary about his journey to the source of the Ganges River called “Shiva’s Matted Locks.”

Dalrymple is the author of many books and travel articles about India and Indian history including “The Last Mughal and “White Mughal.” His book, Nine Lives, includes portraits of fascinating individuals including a Jain nun and a Sufi mystic.

In a short review of the series in 2002, the Guardian News noted that “the series showcases India’s connections with spirituality and offers the viewer a rich and enthralling experience with a unique perspective.”
