Rock And Roll Dont Worry
1,190 wordsDont worry, be happy. This phrase for the most part summed up the philosophy of the hippie culture. People were to love each other, and there was happiness and bliss. The hippie philosophy, though, didnt just create itself. The hippie movement was revolutionized by Eastern influence in the areas of spirituality, music, theater, art, and drugs.

The actual story describes the events taking place on Kurukshetra battlefield. This is the scene of spiritual awakening taking place in the edge between death and life, death an...
