Girl Rising (Official Trailer) *New*

Published on Jan 14, 2014

From Academy Award-nominated director Richard E. Robbins, award-winning Documentary Group, Vulcan Productions and Intel Corporation comes Girl Rising - an innovative new feature film about the power of education to change a girl -- and the world.



About:



Girl Rising is distributed by CNN Films and Gathr, an innovative demand-based theatrical distributor. Meryl Streep, Anne Hathaway, Selena Gomez and other A-list actresses contribute voice performances to the film, which features original music from Academy Award winner Rachel Portman, in collaboration with Hans Zimmer.



The film spotlights unforgettable girls like Sokha, an orphan who rises from the dumps of Cambodia to become a star student and an accomplished dancer; Suma, who composes music to help her endure forced servitude in Nepal and today crusades to free others; and Ruksana, an Indian "pavement-dweller" whose father sacrifices his own basic needs for his daughter's dreams. Each girl is paired with a renowned writer from her native country. Edwidge Danticat, Sooni Taraporevala Aminatta Forna and others tell the girls' stories, each in it's style, and all with profound resonance.



These girls are each unique, but the obstacles they faced are ubiquitous. Like the 66 million girls around the world who dream of going to school, what Sokha, Suma, Ruksana and the rest want most is to be students: to learn. And now, And now, by sharing their personal journeys, they have become teachers. Watch Girl Rising, and you will see: One girl with courage is a revolution.

Did Quantum Physics Just Prove After Life ?: Quantum Physics is now in ...

id Quantum Physics Just Prove After Life ?: Quantum Physics is now in the After Life Realm

The study of consciousness has gained a huge amount of attention over the
past decade as we begin to not only realize more about the true nature
of our world, but as the growing desire to truly discover ourselves
becomes something we cant ignore any longer. Quantum physics may have
just proven that there is an afterlife. Scientist Robert Lanza claims that the theory of biocentrism teaches that death as we know it is an illusion created by our consciousness.Professor Robert Lanza
claims that life creates the universe, and not the other way around.
Lanza is no newbie to controversy. He has been working with cloning and
stem cell research for over a decade and with his new book Biocentrism,
he is attracting even more controversy. While his ideas are ahead of
their time, it doesnt help that the current scientific community is very opposed to new ideas and change.

This
means space and time dont exist in the linear fashion we think it does
and he uses the famous double-split experiment to illustrate his point.

According to Lanzas study, if space and time aren't linear, then death cant exist in any real sense either.

When
it comes to these ideas, they are usually known on an intuitive level
and later move towards being proven at a scientific level. I personally
feel that we give so much weight to our rational, objective left brained
mind that we lose sight of a world that exists right along side that
one.

There is a whole other side to us and this world that we
close ourselves off to in order to stay as scientific as possible. This
is one of the greatest hindrances we can put ourselves through as one of
the most powerful tools we have, our intuition/heart brain, is then
cast aside. The same thinking that allows us to realize amazing
scientific discoveries can also get us stuck in scientific delusions
should we not stay open to change. We are seeing this in a huge way as
we look at the divides that are being created in the medical and
scientific fields. Some are holding onto old ways, while others see what
has been right in front of us the whole time, simply by thinking with
more than just the mind (with the heart.) Its important to note that
although these ideas seem and are profound, they have been known for a
long while but simply have not been accepted by current culture.

Kwan Yin ~ Lisa Thiel

This is a tribute to my favorite goddess, Kwan Yin. (I've also seen her name spelled "Kuan Yin", "Quan Yin", "Qwan Yin", "Guan Yin", and "Gwan Yin".) She's the Chinese goddess of kindness, compassion, and mercy. Her name means "She who hears the cries of the world". The song is by Lisa Thiel.
