Conscious Life Film Festival: February 13 - 15, 2009
We are now accepting submissions for the Conscious Life Film Festival, which is part of the Conscious Life Expo. The films that are selected will screen over three days of this Los Angeles based Expo. We will show shorts, feature films, and documentaries that are conscious, spiritual, metaphysical and/or visionary in nature. The festival is an extension of the expo. Please note that the LAX Hilton screening room is has modest projection facilities...it is not state of the art.
Award certificates will be given out to award winners. There will also be a reception to honor award-winning filmmakers as well as a panel on conscious filmmaking, moderated by Celeste. Films are currently being accepted for consideration.
Two copies should be sent, on DVD, to:

A $20. submission fee is required, with checks made out to:

Please include your name, address, email address, telephone number and carefully label your DVD. Include a three-sentence summary of your film and any other material that you feel is pertinent. You will be notified by December as to whether your film will be included in the festival.
Please pass this information along to those who are making films in this genre, who might be interested in having their film screened.

Lightning Dance Lessons - For the first time ever, the tradition of the Lightning Dance Pathway is being presented in written format, here at Creatrix Studio. This oral tradition is being presented by Choctaw shaman Bvshpo Lawa, aka Boe Many Knives Glasschild. We are very excited about bringing you this magnificent shamanic tradition.
The path of the Lightning Dancer is the path of walking through the maze of life on manual pilot. It is the decision to respond to life instead of reacting. The purpose of Lightning Dance is to give "the white eyes with split vision the keys to dancing in the center of the circle". Although the practitioners are referred to as shamans, traditional societies shun this word. In our nation, the Choctaw Nation, the word is Holhkunna, which means shaman or native curer, (pronounced hoth-koo-nuh). White Eyes is a term that describes people seeking the natural medicine as provided by Earth Mother. Until the veil is lifted, anyone can be a white eyes, but after answering the call to Earth Maker, and walking the talk on this behalf, one is on the path to becoming a Lightning Dancer. This is one of many pathways for Spiritual evolution, and the destination is as individually unique as the journey. When one begins to operate on manual attention, the personal gifts we carry in this incarnation begin to manifest.
No two Lightning Dancers have the same medicine, attitude, or spiritual energies, but all aspire to be an instrument of healing in their relative capacities. We become totally aware of the moment and create our actions that are most appropriate for the moment. Life is a relative engagement, and our physical bodies are just space suits containing the equipment we chose to attend the theatres of this life.

"A human being is a part of a whole, called by us 'universe', a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest...a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness. This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and to affection for a few persons nearest to us. Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole of nature in it's beauty." - Albert Einstein

| "One of the many things that's so wonderful about working with Celeste Adams is the vast filmmaking experience she brings to the very difficult and confusing process of making a documentary film. Her supportive insights and wisdom helped me find my path and kept me moving forward at a very critical point in the journey." |

| "Mark Twain once said that choosing the right word makes as much difference as fire and firefly. I use the same care in choosing a writing consultant. Celeste Adams is the only one I would choose for advice. I am almost deaf and have a gift of hearing angelic choirs and music of the spheres. Celeste's depth of perception enhances my concepts by shaping them into a more succinct form. Celeste's enthusiasm makes working with her fun. Currently, I am writing a book entitled "Living the New Song". It is my first book. Thank you, Celeste..I am in good hands with you as my guide." |
