Tibetan Film Series presents Wheel of Time - February 20

UNIVERSITY OF ARKANSAS TIBETAN FILM SERIES PRESENTS
WHEEL OF TIME
Wednesday, February 20, 2008, 7:00 pm
Giffels Auditorium, Old Main 

Internationally acclaimed film director Werner Herzog (Aguirre:  Wrath of God, Fitzcarraldo, Grizzly Man) traveled to Bodh Gaya, India, in 2002 to record the Kalachakra Ceremony, a tantric Buddhist initiation that drew 500,000 pilgrims, some of whom walked, rode, or prostrated over 3000 miles to attend.  The result is a stunning film, “a spiritual Woodstock,” as one reviewer described it, and an unforgettable testimony to the visual splendors of Tibetan spiritual life.  Geshe Dorjee, who appears in the film at the behest of the Dalai Lama, will be on hand to answer questions after the film and with his student, Rinzin Dorjee, to offer an introductory blessing.  Admission is free, and the event is sponsored by The Fulbright College Honors Program, the Religious Studies Program, and the Tibetan Cultural Insitute of Arkansas.
