Here is one more slide from the VALENTINE'S DAY show soon to be released on this blog -- a 4-minute YouTube video featuring 24 quotes on love (and vocals by Daya Rawat) -- something you can send to your loved ones on Valentine's Day. Our goal is for one million people to view the show and either make a donation to TPRF or commit to performing one act of kindness on Valentine's Day. We wlll also be sending the show to several charities, giving them the option of customizing it so it will serve as a fundraiser for THEIR charity.

We Are All So Lucky to Be Alive

You may not have seen this -- excerpts from Prem Rawat's event in Pasadena last year. Inspiring. A few minutes worth. (This is the style of what Professor Hoffman and I are creating for Valentine's Day -- but in the new show, the quotes will be from 24 different luminaries, including Eva Gabor, Lucille Ball, and Dylan Thomas.

Of course, this begs the question: "What is the self?" HINT: It's not your personality, possessions, accomplishments, style, karma, ego, ideas, or what other people think of you. PS: The above graphic is included in the Valentine's Day show that Stuart Hoffman and I are co-creating. Hoping to post it here within the next 10 days, so you have something inspiring to send to your loved ones on February 14th.

Kindness is Contagious

New Site Trailer from David Gaz on Vimeo.

Not all movies, these days, are about violence, corruption, and superheroes. Enter KINDNESS IS CONTAGIOUS -- a soon-to-be released exploration of what a difference "being nice" can make in the world. A crowd-sourced theatrical release of the movie is on it's way -- a new movie-going experience that allows you to literally "captain" the movie you want to see, where you'd like to see it, and who you'd like to attend. Then, in June, it will be released everywhere on DVD/Streaming and TV through Cinedigm. Stay tuned.

A Possible Valentine's Day Gift for You

RUMI VDAY.jpg

This is just one of 24 slides to be included in a VALENTINE'S DAY slide show that Stuart Hoffman and I are collaborating on -- great quotes on love and Stuart's music. We will be posting the show here for you to forward to your loved ones on Valentine's Day. Our hope is that at least some of the people who enjoy the show will be willing to make a small (or large) donation to our favorite humanitarian organization (TPRF). We want to see if we can raise $50,000 for TPRF using only our love, creativity, and social media.
