The collected short film clips were shot around the time period of the Unity of Man Conference (Feb. 1974) and include images from the conference, Sawan Ashram, Manav Kendra and a couple of other outings. It was added to our collection due to the better than average quality of the conversion to DVD. (A main menu and several "chapters" have been added.) The talk "Man!

Comments on the Windows Media Player:  although the size of these video frames is relatively small (typically under 300 pixels wide) you can enlarge the video in a couple of ways. First, if you change screen resolution on your monitor to a lower resolution such as 800x600 then the apparent size of the video increases. A free useful utility which can change screen resolution "on the fly" is Multires which can be downloaded at http://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/multires.shtm. The WMP will also resize the display if you "drag" a corner to make the player's window larger or if you click the player's maximize button. Current versions of the media player offer a 200% (2x larger) option.
