It was held at the Raleigh Studios in the Charlie Chaplin Theater.  I believe Chaplin and a lot of the greats films were made there back in the day.  <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.spiritualwarriors.com\">Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> was invited by Jennifer Corinna, USM Graduate and now our good friend, to be the film shown at the Premiere of the whole festival.  <\/p>\n<p>The seats were the most comfortable I&#8217;ve ever been in at a theater and I had so much fun meeting new people and introducing them to our beloved <b><a href=\"http:\/\/www.j-r.org\">Dr. John-Roger<\/a><\/b>. J-R, as we affectionately call him, was sitting for quite a while out in the foyer before the film began and giving a lot of us lucky Souls darshan and satsang &#8230; and lots of profound loving.  Like J-R has said, no matter how many times you have seen the film, each time you see it has a new spiritual blessing for you.  That was definitely my experience that night.  <\/p>\n<p>Before the show Jsu Garcia introduced David Raynr as the Director and they spoke eloquently about their experience making it and promised to speak more at the Q&amp;A after the screening.  After the film I joined them also for the Q&amp;A &#8230; it&#8217;s always so amazingly exciting for me to speak about my honor in being part of Spiritual Warriors, particularly in front of the love of my life John-Roger.  I got so high and then the high of introducing some of the fellow filmmakers in attendance to John-Roger and to feel their joy at both the experience of the film, and of course meeting J-R.<\/p>\n<p>Jsu and David were funny and enlightening as they talked about their processes with the film; the sandpapering, the lessons, and the joy.  I piped in about the phone calls I would get as an acting teacher from David about how to get Jsu off the phone with J-R long enough to cry on cue for the character in the film.  His love for J-R is so phenomenally demonstrated through the Light action of the film, as is David&#8217;s and all the MSIA family involved.  I&#8217;m so proud to be part of this magical adventure, and to have felt the Light at the Brilliant Light Film Festival.<\/p>\n<p>Much love and Light,<br \/>Sally Kirkland<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What a blast to be part of the &amp;quot;Spiritual Warriors&amp;quot; cast and crew in attendance at the Brilliant Light International Film Festival last Friday night.
