LoveMovies! Seven Years in Tibet

Wednesday February 29, 2012

 

7:00 – 9:30 p.m.

Join us for our monthly LoveMovies! night matching a book, movie, and theme as we learn about overcoming ego. Feel free to read the book match A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle before attending, or just join us for the evening screening of Seven Years in Tibet and discussion afterwards.

In Seven Years in Tibet, Heinrich Harrer has fled his pregnant wife for a Himalayan climbing expedition, but ends up in Tibet instead. There his friendship with the Dalai Lama transforms Heinrich for the better. Overcoming ego involves a journey from self interest to one of service and compassion for others. Only then will you cease being preoccupied with your own needs and dedicate yourself to the wellbeing of the greater good.
In A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle warns it is impossible for any individual still driven by ego needs to find true and lasting happiness. Only by releasing self centered, personal ambition can you experience greater joy.
