Almost 50 videos of pure gold, most of them about 30 min each.
Ramana Maharshi, his life, devotees, Papaji, Nisargadatta, Robert Adams, Arunachala...:

(In videos "Tales from Palakottu I-VI" there are stories about sadhus living next to Ramanasramam)

More inspiring stories of devotees of Ramana (check out great karma yogi Maurice Frydman in part 2, a real life Forrest Gump*

) and much more, on his both interviews with Rick Archer:

*) David on Maurice:
Maurice Frydman is one of most extraordinary people I�ve ever come across and virtually nothing is known about him. And because of his connection with Ramana Maharshi, Krishnamurti, Gandhi, Nisargadatta, the Dali Lama I kind of view him in my own mind as a Forest Gump of 20th century spirituality. He was in all the right places in all the right times to get the maximum benefit of interaction with some of the greats of Indian spirituality� He was a Gandhian, he worked for the uplift of the poor in India, he worked with Tibetan refugees, he edited extraordinary books [like] �I am That,� probably one of the all time spiritual classics.

This man for me a shining beacon of how devotees could and should be with their teachers. He was just absolutely an extraordinary man. And went out of his way to cover his tracks; to hide what he actually had accomplished in his life. So I�ve enjoyed the detective work of looking in obscure placers, digging out stuff that he personally tried to hide, not because it was embarrassing, but because he didn�t like to take credit for what he�d done. So I see this as an opportunity to wave the Maurice flag and say �look look, this is one of the greatest devotee, sadoc seekers from the West whose been to India in the last 100 years, and I think more people should know about him."

I hope I'll have a second chance to thank David for all the great work that he has done in past 40 years, by collecting and sharing these stories (on top of his books and translations of Tamil poetry). I didn't dare to disturb his peace, when I saw him chillin at Ramanasramam last year.

OM NAMOH BHAGAVATE SHRI RAMANAYA

Papaji and the Buddha

85 minutes long, very informative and full of beautiful details on Papajis lives around the universe.

Spoiler alert: We are very lucky!

There is also published 35 min.first part, out of three total, on Muruganar, great poet and devotee of Bhagavan Ramana.
