    Sedona AZ (September 9, 2013) – Filmed on location at the Ananda communities in California, Italy, and India, Finding Happiness follows a young woman as she spends a week with the residents of Ananda, who answer her questions and welcome her to a reality she had never imagined possible. The documentary film will be shown at Unity of Sedona on September 19 at 7pm.

    20130909_findinghappynessWe meet a group of people who, in their own unscripted words, have journeyed from idealism, to inner transformation, using practical, viable solutions for a sustainable, harmonious, fulfilling way of life. In talking with the residents and especially those with Kriyananda, she comes face-to-face with her own odyssey through life and her own quest for happiness. His answers lead her to discover not only the facts about the community, but the universal truths that hold the power to transform her own life.

Second, our environment greatly influences our search for happiness. Yogananda envisioned places where people could put high principles into action – “world brotherhood colonies,” he called them. In 1968, Swami Kriyananda founded the first community near Nevada City, California, in the beautiful foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

The beating of Tyre Nichols at the hands of the police preceding his death at the hospital could have been avoided if only he had the sense to not resist them. People fail to understand that on the streets, cops are basically “God.” You can’t fight them. If it takes one, two, five, ten or twenty officers they will eventually put you down and hurt you if they have to in the process of detaining or arresting you. In the Bronx we would fight amongst ourselves but when the cops came it was “Yes, officer. No, officer,” and do our best to look as innocent as possible. People need to understand that cops on the street represent the full power of the state and government. Read more→
