Movie Night: "Peaceful Warrior"
Details
We will do a short sitting tonight, and then watch the movie: "Peaceful Warrior" followed by a short Dharma discussion as related to the movie.
Movie synopsis: A 2006 inspirational movie based on a true story. Dan Millman is a gifted young athlete bound for Olympic gold who will do anything to be the best. Driven by success, Dan has got it all: trophies, fast motorcycles, fast girls, and wild parties. But Dan's world is turned upside down when he meets a mysterious stranger in a gas station who holds the power to tap into new worlds of strength and understanding. The young man discovers that he has much to learn and even more to leave behind in order to master this new vision of greatness in this moving tale about the power of human will.
