Dusk. Palm trees and weakening sunshine. A pink sky. Camera pans and rests on a building, THE GOLD COAST, a dive gay bar, situated right on Santa Monica Blvd. Camera begins to zoom into doorway. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" by Nirvana starts to play. CUT TO: INT. THE GOLD COAST - NIGHT A typical gay bar scene. Darkened room, loud music, a moderate amount of flashing lights. Loud laughter and the occasional crack of the pool balls can be heard over the din. Various shots of the action: men playing pool, men at the bar drinking, guys along the wall chatting and/or looking standoff-ish. One final pan and the camera rests on RICHIE HAMILTON, a lanky, long-haired white male in his mid 20's. He’s standing along the wall, observing the crowd. It’s his usual tradition. Maybe spot a familiar face, maybe meet someone new, who knows. Richie tilts back his glass of bourbon for the last sip, drinks, then heads to the bar for another cocktail. Just as he crosses the doorway, he almost bumps into PRESTON, who’s entering the establishment. Preston, also in his mid 20's, is dark-haired, slightly rugged and drop dead gorgeous.

  • TO HEAR the ANGELS SING DOROTHY MACLEAN Dorothy Maclean Is One of the Three Founders of the Findhorn Community in Scotland
    TO HEAR THE ANGELS SING DOROTHY MACLEAN ANGELS SING DOROTHY THE TO HEAR Dorothy Maclean is one of the three founders of the Findhorn Community in Scotland. Following her inner contact with the Divine she came to communicate with the devic or angelic realms that To Hear over-light all aspects of existence. The success and subsequent fame of the Findhorn gardens arose in part from Dorothy’s telepathic contact with these kingdoms. She now travels the world giving workshops and talks about her own inner practices The Angels Sing and attunement to the Beloved. Many of the messages she received are included in this book. Their simple wisdom cannot fail to quicken an awareness of our birthright as conscious partners with all the evolutionary streams of life. “Yes, I talk with angels, great Beings whose lives infuse and create all of Nature. In another time and culture I might have been cloistered in a convent or a temple, or, less pleasantly, burnt at the stake as a witch. In our skeptical time and culture, such a claim is more likely to be met with scoffing disbelief or as the ramblings of a dreamy female. Being a practical, down-to-earth person, I bad never set out to learn to talk with angels, nor had I ever imagined that such contact would be possible or useful. Yet, when this communication began to occur, it d id so in a way that I could not dispute.” From wartime employment with the British government to co-founding the Findhorn community, and later the Lorian Association in the United States and Canada, Dorothy Maclean’s life-story is an inspiring account of a journey through self-discovery to an awareness of those forces which overlight and give order to creation — the angelic kingdoms.

Creative workers like actors, producers, and writers come to L.A. to pursue dreams of stardom, especially in the Hollywood film and television media industries. For most, a “big break” into their chosen field remains perpetually out of reach despite their constant efforts. Expensive workshops like acting classes, networking events, and chance encounters are seen as keys to Hollywood success. Within this world, rumors swirl of big breaks for devotees in the city’s spiritual and religious organizations. For others, it is in consultations with local spiritual advisors like professional psychics that they navigate everyday decisions of how to achieve success in Hollywood.

  • Many Ways, Middle Way, No Way
    Praise for Many Ways, Middle Way, No Way Hollywood Buddhism Sizzles! Michael Attie knows his dharma, and understands show-biz, and he puts the two together in this profound, lighthearted and often touching book. Attie will take you with him to visit the esteemed Zen master Sasaki Roshi or the Hindu saint Neem Karoli Baba, and then to meditate in his ‘Don't Worry Zendo’ or at the Playmates lingerie meditation hall. Can you find universal consciousness through the Feather Boa Dance? Read this book and find out! You'll have a good time on the way. —Wes Nisker, author Crazy Wisdom, (Ten Speed Press) Michael Attie’s Many Ways, Middle Way, No Way examines Buddhism’s many facets—its principles and practices, its lineages, and its consonance with other disciplines—all the time reminding us not to take anything too seriously. Attie’s approach is encyclopedic, thoughtful, compassionate, and best of all, gently outrageous. —Jeff Kane, author The Healing Companion, (HarperSanFrancisco) A witty, compassionate, reverential and wise description of meditation and ordinary spiritual practice by a wandering pilgrim whose understanding matured immeasurably at midlife when he became the owner of “the world’s largest lingerie store.” Based upon his personal experiences, Attie describes an unconventional, self-authenticated, non- authoritarian spiritual practice drawn from Eastern devotional traditions and meditation techniques that embraces everyday life and promotes relationship and the collective experience. Attie’s romp through Eastern mysticism and practice illuminates, instructs and celebrates life’s juxtaposition of chaos, passion, music, poetry, art, travel and people with spiritual practice. His world is a warm place filled with love, humor and appreciation.

  • Le Hurlement Du Papillon Performance Poétique
    performance poétique un projet du collectif de création Piment, Langue d’oiseau le hurlement du papillon performance poétique Le hurlement du papillon est une exploration poétique et musicale de l’univers de Patti Smith. Une comédienne, une musicienne et un musicien se proposent de faire découvrir à travers ce spectacle, une des facettes moins connue public francophone de Patti Smith : sa poésie. Le parcours retrace une œuvre littéraire de 1970 à aujourd’hui, dans la pure inspiration de la poésie happening américaine, mouvement initié dans les années soixante par des personnalités telles que John Giorno, William Burroughs, Alan Ginsberg, Brion Gysin... Photo Robert Mappelthorpe (1974) Comme elle a souvent l’habitude de le faire lors de ses récitals poétiques, ses poèmes, ici dits en français, seront accompagnés d’univers sonores et musicaux originaux, joués en direct par les musiciens. Le hurlement du papillon est aussi un voyage survolant sa carrière musicale par la reprise d’une chanson de chacun de ses albums de « Horses » (1975) à « Trampin’ » (2004). Le parti pris de sobriété de sa forme en fait un spectacle s’adaptant aussi bien aux théâtres ou aux festivals de rue, ainsi qu’aux petits lieux insolites. Photo Annie Leibowitz (1995) Poète, auteur, compositeur, photographe, peintre, Patti Smith, née en 1946 est une artiste, un esprit libre qui fascine par la multiplicité de ses moyens d’expression, par la pureté de son parcours artistique sans concession. Ainsi traverse t’elle les courants, les modes et donc le temps. Les poèmes interprétés dont « le hurlement du papillon » seront choisis dans les deux recueils parus aux éditions Tristram : « La mer de corail » & « Corps de plane » qui regroupent des textes parus entre 1970 & 1979 ; ouvrages édités en France en 1996 & 1998.
