EVENT NEWS: Screening of "Dalai Lama Renaissance" May 2, 2011

A screening of "Dalai Lama Renaissance" and live concert with the film's musicians, including sitar virtuoso Roop Verma, as well as Michel Tyabji and Tashi Sharzur, will take place on Monday, May 2 at 6:30 p.m. in the Wallace All Faiths Chapel, Fish Interfaith Center.

"Dalai Lama Renaissance" follows the journey of some of the world’s most distinctive thinkers – from nuclear physicists to self-help experts, with narration by actor Harrison Ford – to see the Dalai Lama at his Indian home-in-exile and discuss a way to freedom for Tibet and humanity. The soundtrack flows from the voluntary contribution of a diverse yet serendipitously harmonious group of musical fellow travelers brought together by percussionist and producer Michel Tyabji."

EVENT NEWS: Energy and You: Using various forms of energy for our wellbeing with Roop Verma, April 29, 2011

Roop Verma, internationally respected sitarist, composer and accomplished teacher of Indian classical and sacred music, will ponder various forms of ‘energy’ and explore a deeper understanding of energy as a process of ‘self inquiry.’ Some forms of energy are familiar to us: solar, wind, water, fossil fuel and gas. Roop will discuss additional forms of energy that nourish and soothe us on the deeper levels and direct us from the mundane to more sublime parts of our being, such as loving someone unconditionally or experiencing art, music or poetry. Finally he will discuss the energy often spoken of by the religions of
the world, such as compassion found through silence or meditation that can be experienced and directed into our ‘mind-body’ processes.
