Films
Curious about the need to add "Spiritual Emergency" to our understanding of mental health?
1. "Crazywise" (trailer) follows two people with serious disturbance who appear to be in spiritual crisis and may have been mishandled by the conventional mental healthcare system. We must ask: what would have been better for them?
Curious about the notion of reincarnation and karma--and how that impacts on our lives?
1. "Yesterday's Children" (full film for free) is based on a true story of family love. It's a feature length film with excellent acting.
2. "I Origins" (trailer) a love story involving a scientist and his more spiritual lover. A story of transformation.
3. "The Fountain" (trailer) Another love story with excellent acting...this one about eternal love.
