The Juneau Shambhala Center is hosting “Awakening on Film: A Festival of Buddhist Films” at the Gold Town Nickelodeon Theater Nov. 4-Dec. 2. The festival is a fundraiser for the Juneau Shambhala Center. An open house and meditation at the center, located above the theater, will follow each screening.<\/p>\n
Shambhala Vision is rooted in the principle that every human being has a fundamental nature of basic goodness. This nature can be developed in daily life so that it radiates out to family, friends, community and society, said a press release from the center.<\/p>\n
On Nov. 4 at 4 p.m., “Walk With Me” will be shown. It’s about Thich Nhat Hanh and Plum Village, narrated by Benedict Cumberbatch. On Nov. 18 at 4 p.m., “Dropka,” a documentary about nomadic herders on the eastern Tibetan Plateau by Yan Chun Su will be shown. On Dec. 2 at 4 p.m.,“One Mind,” a film that examines a Zen Chan monastery in China by director Edward Burger will be shown.<\/p>\n
