Yarborough Branch Library
“Dragon Heart” by Will Langley
What’s love got to do with it? Everything!
Join us on February 14 to celebrate Valentine’s Day and the Year of the Black Water Dragon, connect with members and friends, and discuss the controversial documentary film THRIVE.
“I truly believe that aligning consciously with the fundamental life energy pattern at every level—physical, emotional, mental, interpersonal, and environmental—is ultimately the art, the science, and the celebration of love.” —Foster Gamble, THRIVE, 2:01:03
Excerpts will be shown at the meeting. The full movie can be viewed instantly for $5 on the THRIVE website and is occasionally posted on YouTube.
Truth or Disinformation?
Attendees may also wish to read the thoughtful review by Steve Bhaerman (aka Swami Beyondananda’), “On Thrive and Thrival,” who says in regard to the film’s passionate fans and critics:
“I recognize that conflict necessarily provides the energy for change—provided that conflict is “held” in the appropriate container. And that container is love and respect, and the understanding that while we may be separated by the beliefs in our head, our heart is the source of unity.”
See also Bhaerman’s page on “Heartland Security,” about which he says, “What’s clear to me is that the heart—the power of love, coherence, connectedness, health, sanity and goodness—is the prime human resource to cultivate right now. As the Swami has said, “Our true security is in the land of the heart.”
