Overview

AWAKE & AWARE is a conscious cinema program that presents opportunities to see and understand the relations between things, people, and processes, things that we usually cannot see completely because of our perception or circumstance.

THE SCHEDULE:
• 2:30pm – Doors Open / Brunch Served
• 2:45pm – Guided Meditation with Katog Miami

• 3:00pm – Film Starts
THE FILM:

WISDOM OF HAPPINESS shows us a timeless truth: happiness is still possible, even in the midst of chaos and uncertainty. This powerful message of hope is delivered as a personal audience with one of the greatest living thinkers, Nobel Peace Prize winner Tenzin Gyatso, known to billions around the world as the Dalai Lama. Speaking as a member of our single global community, he shares practical wisdom for finding peace, compassion, and hope in the midst of chaos. With disarming clarity and deep humanity, he invites us to imagine — and help create — a world where compassion is activated as our strongest force for change, and happiness is within reach for everyone.

GUIDED MEDITATION:

KATOG MIAMI - 'Katog Tingzin Ling' is a Buddhist group in the Tibetan tradition via the 'Nyingma Lineage' located in Miami, Florida, USA. Khentrul Lodrö Thayé Rinpoche​, a Tibetan monk, teaches here about once a year and under his direction, they hold weekly practices open to all, and other workshops, retreats, and special events. Khentrul Rinpoche, one of the only 'khenpos' in the world to hold three 'khenpo' degrees, (the equivalent of three PhDs in Buddhist philosophy), oversees more than twenty meditation groups across North America, Canada, Australia, South Africa and Tibet. Tony Rocio will lead the guided meditation. Duration: 10 mins.
