Award-winning Dalai Lama Renaissance Film, and its Director, Appear in Bloomington, IN for Special Screening on Oct 24

Khashyar | October 16, 2010

Dalai Lama Renaissance, and Director Khashyar Darvich, will appear at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater in Bloomington, Indiana on October 24 at 4 p.m.

Narrated by Harrison Ford, the film and Director Khashyar Darvich travel to Bloomington for a premiere special screening and filmmaker Q&A in Bloomington, Indiana at the historic Buskirk-Chumley Theater

BLOOMINGTON, IN – After winning 12 awards, and screening in hundreds of cities around the world, the ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ Documentary Film and Director Khashyar Darvich travel to Bloomington on Sunday, October 24 for a special film screening and Director Q&A at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater at 4 p.m.

There will be a public reception with the filmmaker after the screening.

Featuring the Dalai Lama, and narrated by actor Harrison Ford, the film tells the story of 40 Western innovative thinkers who travel to the Himalayan Mountains of India to meet with the Dalai Lama to solve many of the world’s problems. What happened was powerful and unexpected, and was captured by a five camera, 18 person crew.

The film features two of the starring quantum physicists from the hit theatrical documentary ‘What the Bleep Do We Know,’ Fred Alan Wolf and Amit Goswami. Also appearing in ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ are Michael Beckwith (who appears in ‘The Secret’), radio host and author Thom Hartmann, revolutionary social scientist Jean Houston, Vandana Shiva (social activist, “The Corporation”), and other prominent thinkers.

Amy Wong of LA Yoga Magazine writes: “it is a stunning tour-de-force [and an] intimate glimpse into the Dalai Lama’s life.”

Film Critic John Griffin of the Montreal Gazette calls ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ “a provocative, even enlightening film… fascinating, ravishingly beautiful and sonically soothing.”

Film Threat Magazine’s Rick Kisonak said “Dalai Lama Renaissance” is a “comedy sensation,” adding, “I can’t remember the last time a movie made me laugh so hard.”

“I look forward visiting Bloomington,” says Director Khashyar Darvich, who grew up nearby in Oxford, Ohio, “to share the film with audiences in Indiana, as well as speaking with them about the inner journey of personal transformation, in the presence of the Dalai Lama, that was captured in the film.”

The tour is being hosted and organized by the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Center (TMBCC – www.tmbcc.net ), who hosted visits by the Dalai Lama in Indiana.

After the Oct 24 Bloomington screening and Q&A, Darvich travels to New York City and New England in November for several screenings, and then to Australia on November 24 for a five week multi-city Australian tour.

About the Visit

Arjia Rinpoche, Director of the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center, is pleased to announce that His Holiness the 14^th Dalai Lama will return to Bloomington, Indiana to give teachings on the Womb of Buddha: “The Heart Sutra” at Indiana University Auditorium May 12 and 13, 2010.

The teachings will be translated in Chinese, Vietnamese, and Mongolian. Please bring a small FM radio and earphones

His Holiness will give three teachings: on May 12, in the morning from 9:15 to 11:15 a.m. and in the afternoon from 1:30 to 3:30 p.m. On May 13, the morning teaching will begin at 9:15 and end at 11:15 a.m. There will be no afternoon teaching. Tickets will go on sale through IU Auditorium on January 15, 2010. Contact IU Auditorium at 1-812-855-1103; tickets@indiana.edu.

The topic of the May teachings is “The Heart Sutra.” This sutra (teaching of the Buddha) is a member of the Perfection of Wisdom (Prajñāpāramitā) class of Mahāyāna Buddhist literature. The Buddha gave this wisdom teaching at Rajagriha Peak in India after he reached enlightenment. It expresses the “heart” of the Buddhist religion as it expounds the importance of compassion and wisdom.

The TMBCC will present cultural programs at IU Auditorium on the evening of May 12. His Holiness will not be present at these events. Detailed information will be presented on the TMBCC website at a later date.

His Holiness will give a Public Talk in Indianapolis, Indiana on May 14, 2010 at Conseco Field House entitled “Facing Today’s Challenges with Wisdom and Compassion.” This talk is being sponsored by the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center (TMBCC), the Interfaith Hunger Initiative in Indianapolis (IHI), and the Indiana Buddhist Center of Indiana (IBC). Please click on Public Talk for more information about this event.

This will be the Dalai Lama’s sixth visit to the TMBCC. He first visited Bloomington in 1987 to dedicate the Janchub Chorten when the center was known as the” Tibetan Cultural Center.” In October 2007, he changed its name to the “Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center” to broaden its mission by including the Mongolian Buddhist culture. At that time, he gave teachings on Atisha’s Lamp to the Path to Enlightenment at IU Auditorium and a Public Talk at IU Assembly Hall entitled “Compassion, the Source of Peace.”
