want stuff cinema
I turn a lot of stuff down - big, big movies, the kind I wouldn't want to go to the cinema to see.
order awareness should
Work should be in order to live. We don't live in order to work. That shift in awareness is necessary.
way world function
The system is not working. That is how a paradigm shift begins: the established way of seeing the world no longer functions.
spiritual healing self
Political movements for justice are part of the fuller development of the cosmos, and nature is the matrix in which humans come to their self-awareness of their power to transform. Liberation movements are a fuller development of the cosmos's sense of harmony, balance, justice, and celebration. This is why true spiritual liberation demands rituals of cosmic celebrating and healing, which will in turn culminate in personal transformation and liberation.
movie character actors
Filmmaking is always sort of building a mosaic of this arc of what the character is going through.
grace sorrow way
Humor and paradox are often the only ways to respond to life's sorrow with grace.
life sweet people
Soul is our appetite, driving us to eat from the banquet of life. People filled with the hunger of soul take food from every dish before them, whether it be sweet or bitter.
letting-go fighting space
Healthy mysticism praises acts of letting go, of being emptied, of getting in touch with the space inside and expanding this until it merges with the space outside. Space meeting space; empty pouring into empty. Births happen from that encounter with emptiness, nothingness. . . . Let us not fight emptiness and nothingness, but allow it to penetrate us even as we penetrate it.
party ends great-experiences
I directed an episode of 'Party of Five' toward the very end of that show. It was a great experience.
islands space four
I enjoy a four-seasonal climate and wide-open spaces, so being on an island 2,500 miles into the South Pacific made me feel a little claustrophobic.
spiritual art believe
I consider Otto Rank to be one of the great spiritual giants of the twentieth century, a genius as a psychologist and a saint as a human being. Though vilified by his original community of Freudians, he never became bitter. He died a feminist and deeply committed to social justice, in 1939....His deep understanding of creativity makes him a mentor for all of us living in a postmodern world....I believe that Art and Artist, especially chapters 12 to 14, may well emerge as the most valuable psychoanalysis of the spiritual life in our time.
beautiful pain illusion
Pain destroys the illusions of false, that is, elitist pleasures. It burns from the inside out. It, therefore, sensitizes us to what is truly beautiful in life.
rivers path needs
To connect with the great river we all need a path, but when you get down there there's only one river.
spiritual journey essentials
Big-heartednes s is the most essential virtue on the spiritual journey.
