In Spiritual Teachings of the Avatar, author Jeffrey Armstrong enlightens us on the real meaning of the word Avatar and its relevance today. Culled from Vedic spiritual traditions of India that can be traced back more than 5,000 years, Armstrong illuminates how contemporary cultural references to Avatars reveal their deep and enlightening historical roots. At the heart of these teachings is a respect for all life, the concept that we are each part of the same Ultimate Being, and where everyone is able to makes the journey back home to the Divine.

Blessings: The Tsoknyi Nangchen Nuns of Tibet tells the story of 3000 nuns living in the remote nomadic region of Nangchen in Eastern Tibet who practice an ancient yogic tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. Despite near extinction during the destruction of the Cultural Revolution, these remarkable spiritual practitioners have emerged to rebuild their monasteries by hand — stone by stone. Now, their tradition of wisdom and compassion is once again vital and growing.
In 2005, Tsoknyi Rinpoche III led a small group of western students to meet the Nangchen nuns. Blessings is the story of this extraordinary journey. A unique meeting of East and West, the film is an inspiration to anyone seeking a spiritual path through the challenges of 21st century life.
Directed by: Victress Hitchcock
Starring: Narrated by Richard Gere. Featuring Tsoknyi Rinpoche III, Jetsunma Tenzin Palmo, and Tsultrim Allione
