The light of consciousness has no mind to change or alter anything. When you start to see the light that you really are, the light waking up in you, the radiance, you realize it has no intention to change you. It has no intention to harmonize. It has no agenda.

AdyashantiWhen I say corrupting, I mean taking over and politicizing them for the express purpose of advancing the leftist agenda.

And they try to explain to their people why they should take one side or the other side. But in the movie its doing the opposite. It allows you to have a Universal Experience.

The language of cinema is a world language. With the Hollywood movie, it brings about the same reaction wherever it goes.

Jaron LanierI think one of the great strengths of Americans United is that it has such diversity. That it has not only people who have no religious belief, but lots of people who do and who take that belief very seriously.

We just have a commitment to the Constitution.
