"These stories shimmer and shine with insights on liberation from suffering. In this beautiful film, we enter sacred space and bear witness to the kind of personal and political healing that is possible."
- Stephanie Alston-Nero
Mindfulness is at the core of Zen Buddhist Master Thich Nhat Hanh's teachings. It is explored in this new film, through Dharma talks and interviews with practitioners during a special retreat led by Thich Nhat Hanh for people of color. The film is for everyone! The film's backdrop is the green mountain setting of Deer Park Monastery in California.
The film culminates in rare footage of a ceremony called the Five Mindfulness Trainings with subtitled verses to the "Heart of Perfect Understanding" sutra.
The DVD includes three special bonus features including an extended interview with Sister Dang Nghiem, author of Healing: A Woman's Journey from Doctor to Nun, (Parallax Press, 2010). Her story is compelling beyond words.
