“I would like to share my experience of spending the last 5 days with the New York \/ Woodstock tour for Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> and MSIA. I have seen Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> at least 20 times, but this was the first time I brought friends to view the movie and have them have the opportunity to follow up with experiencing John-Roger and the energy and teachings of MSIA. My friends viewed the movie on Friday evening and then attended the book signing and workshop the next day. In particular, my friend who was on her third month of Discourses was extremely grateful and deeply moved by being able to meet J-R in person and take part in the teachings that J-R, Jsu and Paul presented. Such a wonderful gift!!!”<\/i>

“The house was full for the second annual screening of Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> in Woodstock, New York, at the TALEO Arts Center. It was a pleasure to again host the film and crew that made this wonderful film. Warm spirits abounded and the audience reacted with enthusiasm and support for the film with plenty of thoughtful questions during the Q&A with Jsu Garcia, the co-writer and star of the film. The whole experience was wonderful and look forward to seeing them again next year with this film once again or their new venture. All the best.”<\/i>
– Michael J. Brody, Director of TALEO<\/p>\n

“Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> was a perfect companion to the idyllic forest-like serene surroundings of Woodstock. Once again, we rejoiced as John-Roger accompanied this masterpiece, spreading his joy and Light.”<\/i>
– Heide Banks<\/p>\n

And the official commentary from Jsu …<\/i><\/p>\n

Jimi Hendrix is what I think about when I think of Woodstock. But now John-Roger takes the place of Jimi because I grounded my experience with J-R (John-Roger) in Woodstock and the Screenings of Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b>. <\/p>\n

Michael Brody and his Taleo-Arts Center is the shell of an old Bapist Church including original pews left from the last congregation. With his center. Michael Brody has infused art, a screening room, and love all in one. <\/p>\n

John-Roger and his bus full of friends arrived just in time to begin the second screening of Spiritual Warriors<\/a><\/b> in Woodstock. We found the church full of new comers and regulars. Melba Alhonte, Deborah Kovitz and Marc Alhonte worked the town; promoting with flyers, ads and spreading the word to the locals. It’s clear after being there last year, J-R did some magic because it was so easy. After the screening we headed to a dinner with 40 people. New and old friends of J-R, all sat around wanting to grab any chair close to J-R. We ended the night with full stomachs, and full hearts. <\/p>\n

As I write it’s late at night, very late and am about to smash my face into the pillow to sleep, and as I try in this moment to capture, to be aware of what has happened on this awesome trip with J-R and friends and our screenings going so well … it just slips out of my mind like a vapor … Spirit-filled air. What happened? Where did it go?
\nLove ya John-Roger,
Jsu<\/p>\n
