Anne Blanchard has prepared this playsheet for contemplative movie watching:
Join us on Sunday, January 23 at 8 pm ET/6 pm MT for a discussion of this month’s movie, Becoming Nobody that will be facilitated by Anne Blanchard.
Becoming Nobody is a documentary chronicling the life and work of the famous spiritual teacher and yogi, Ram Dass (1931-2019).
This movie dovetails with all of Awakening Together’s core values and the thrust of Regina Dawn Aker’s teaching that, if there is any particular goal on the spiritual path, it is to become nobody, to see through the illusion that we are separate, individual people and go about giving up day-by-day all habits which arise to reinforce the illusion.
This quote from the movie illustrates the movie’s message: “My wish for people watching this film is to realize that there is a path to love without cause — both for oneself and for everyone we interact with on a daily basis. You don’t have to go to India to find it. It’s all sitting right in the middle of your chest. It is what I call Loving Awareness. We are loving awareness. We are truth. We are capable of putting our small selves aside to serve others.”
Becoming Nobody is available on Amazon, YouTube, and iTunes.
