Have you ever wondered about trivial things like:-
* Life, The Universe, Everything?
* Who or what God is?
* Wondered if there’s ‘something else’ at all?
* Felt that blind faith has left you in the dark?
Many people have asked these and similar questions for centuries.
For you, here is a life changing film, that will help you expand your concepts of reality.
Big call i know. Who could argue from such positive feedback?
It’s a sweet soul songs from my inner most being
— C. Ibraham
The intention of the film is to leave the audience with a feeling sense of the subject matter not just the intellectual aspects.
We go on a search to find contemporary spiritual teachers who are perhaps in similar states or experiences to which I had read about. Ask them questions that come up along the way. Like, what is enlightenment and what purpose does it serve? How does meditation fit in with this and what does it do for us?
I was inspired to film my interviews and share them with other people.
Perhaps answer other’s questions maybe raise a few more.
Maybe shine a light on some new ideas?
Awakening NOW |
|
People from all walks of life are awakening. From the ‘Arab Spring’ to the ‘Occupy Movement’ people are waking up from the complacency and really asking the important questions. Is this really for me? Why do i do this every day? Why do people feel a sense of foreboding? Why can’t they be happy with life? So many people in the western world have consumed and performed because this was what was expected. By whom and Why? Do we do it out of a false sense of allegiance because that was what was taught to us as children by our parents and our teachers? Gautama the Buddha said to question everything! Question yourself. Question your teachers. Question you beliefs. Even question him! Do not accept anything as it is, use your gift of consciousness to be that Conscious. Are you ready to Awaken NOW? |
Many people have asked these and similar questions for centuries.
Well here is something that might help expand your concepts of reality.
Change your perspective of what it could all mean to you.
"the truth is without real spirituality, we’re probably not going to be happy."
We’ve ask six different teachers to reveal their experiences and understanding of some very ancient concepts. Getting new perspectives as interpreted by these modern spiritual teachers.
Teachers are as important as role models. When we listen to someone elses perspective it gives us an opportunity to learn and gain from someones elses experience without having to tread a path that is well worn. Sure we can learn many things by our own experience though through listening to another openly wisdom can be gained.

What a beautifully paced movie – it was clear that it was a project of love and I am grateful for you putting it out there in the world. A wonderful reflective experience
— D. Walkck, Walsh Bay
Hi, I’m Jerel Mani.
I’ve been on a lifelong spiritual quest to try and find answers about who, what and why we are.
My journey has taken me around the world giving me opportunities to meet with many amazing people who are different places on their path. I didn’t have the answers, so these peoples stories, experiences and state of being have provided me some guidance and helped me to understand a little more clearly.
I have talked with many people, much like myself, who opportunities have eluded them to increase their understanding seeking some sort of spiritual undertaking to push them through to a more satisfying life.
For others, they get closer to the moment, and with a little more time will come to know there is more to life.
This has led me to create Awakening Now. It’s a movie for anyone, at any level of their spiritual consciousness to watch, learn, meditate and ponder the questions that must have answers.
These are the questions that have answers you can feel. How can you access them and find truth behind existence? The people I have met can provide the guidance and within yourself you can begin to enjoy fulfilment on all levels of your life.
It’s as much my movie as it is yours. A documentary I feel passionately about and I invite you to being your journey for answers today.
Take the next step on the path to your spiritual awakening.
Many people have asked these and similar questions for centuries.
Well here is something that might help expand your concepts of reality.
Change your perspective of what it could all mean to you.
