“Dalai Lama Awakening” film screening

Hawaii Betsuin and the Buddhist Study Center are pleased to host a screening of Dalai Lama Awakening at the BSC on Saturday, February 4 at 4 p.m. Refreshments and discussion will follow the film.

Narrated by actor Harrison Ford, Dalai Lama Awakening presents the profound and life-changing journey of innovative Western thinkers who travel to India to meet with the Dalai Lama to solve many of the world’s problems.

The film features quantum physicists Fred Alan Wolf and Amit Goswami (“What the Bleep Do We Know”), Michael Beckwith (“The Secret”), Revolutionary Social Scientist Jean Houston, and others.

There is comedy and tension alike as egos emerge leading up to a session with the Dalai Lama.

Join vicariously with the participants on their transformational journey and then talk about it with your fellow filmgoers.
