KLUTE...................................

1971-USA 114 MIN THRILLER

"TELL ME, KLUTE. DID WE GET YOU A LITTLE? HUH? JUST A LITTLE BIT? US CITY FOLK? THE SIN, THE GLITTER, THE WICKEDNESS?"

"JANE FONDA DOMINATES THE FILM FROM HER FIRST TO HER LAST APPEARANCE. IN A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE THAT ALMOST BURSTS THE CONFINES OF THE CHARACTER SHE PLAYS, SHE COMBINES SUBTLE EXPRESSIVENESS WITH INTELLIGENCE AND FEMININE SELF-ASSURANCE. YET SHE ALSO SHOWS THE SUFFERING AND UNCERTAINTY OF A LONELY HUMAN BEING"

THIS FILM BELONGS TO JANE FONDA. SHE PORTRAYS A PROSTITUTE WHO IS BOTH THE CLASSIC VICTIM AND THE CAPTAIN OF HER FATE.

STRAW DOGS

1971 GREAT BRITTAIN/USA 118 MIN THRILLER

"THE FILM IS A PROVATION AND A DIAGNOSIS. IT TAKES THE HYSTERICAL DEBATE ABOUT THE PORTRAYAL OF VIOLENCE IN THE MEDIA TO NEW HEIGHTS, THUS QUESTIONING ITS OWN RIGHT TO EXIST. WITHDRAWAL TREATMENTS OF THIS KIND ARE VITALLY NECESSARY"

"I CAN THINK OF NO OTHER FILM WHICH SCREWS VIOLENCE UP INTO SO TIGHT A KNOT OF TERROR TAHT ONE BEGINS TO FEEL THAT CIVILIAZATION IS CRUMBLING BEFORE ONE'S EYES"

God's lonely man

Martin Scorsese was the second great Italian-American director to make a breakthrough. In contrast to CAPPOLA, the son of established middle-class parents, Scorsese came from a poor family of Sicilian immigrants to New York. He grew up in Little Italy and had first hand experience of life on the mean streets: the claustrophobic narrowness, the co existence of the catholic church and the Mafia. The open and respressed aggression.

The black doors of Power.

The most important director of the decade is FRANCIS FORD CAPOLLA.

"VIDDY WELL"

The skeptical eye

The self UNSEEING..... T.H.

Here is the ancient floor,
footworn and hollowed and thin,
here was the former door
where the dead feet walked in.

She sat here in her chair,
smiling into the fire;
he who played stood there,
bowing it higher and higher.

Childlike, I danced in a dream;
Blessings emblazoned that day;
Everything glowing with a gleam;
Yet we were looking away!

I look into my Glass

I look into my glass,
And view my wasting Skin.
And say, 'would God it came to pass
MY HEART had shrunk as thin!'

For then, I, undistrest
By hearts grown cold to me,
could lonely wait my endless rest
with equanimity.

But Time, to make me grieve,
part steals, lets part abide;
And shakes his fragile frame at eve
With throbbings of noontide.

T.H

Nature's Questioning....?

When I look fourth at dawning, pool,

Feildm flock, and lonely tree.

All seem to gaze at me

like chastened children sitting silent in a school.

Their faces dulled, constrained, and worn,

As though the master's ways

Through the long teaching days

Had cowed them till their early zest was overborne.

Upon them stirs in lippings mere (as if once clear in call,

but now scarce breathed at all)- we wonder,

ever wonder, why we find us here!

has some vast imbecility,

mighty to build and blend

but impotent to tend

Framed us in jest, and left us now to hazardry?

Or come we of an Automaton

unconscious of our pains?....

or are we live remains

of Godhead dying downwards, brain and eye now gone?

Or is it that some high plan betides

As yet not understood,

Of evil stormed by good,

We the Forlorn hope ever which achievement strides?

Thus things around. No answerer I......

Meanwhile the winds and rains and earth's old glooms and pains

Are still the same,and Life and Death are neighbours nigh.

Thomas Hardy

Experience the BENEFITS of mantra meditation

Meditation on spiritual sound is known as mantra- MAN= mind TRA= to release. It is the most efective and easiest way of achieving lasting peace of mind and happiness.
Find a place where you won't be disturbed or distracted and sit comfortably. Recite a mantra,

Here the Hari Krishna Mantra

Hare Krishna

Hare Krishna

Krishna Krishna

Hare Hare

Hare Rama

Hare Rama

Rama Rama

Hare Hare

Focus your attention on hearing the sound of each syllable of the mantra. When you notice your mind wandering to other thoughts, simply bring it back to the sound of the mantra. Absorb your whole consciousness in meditation on this sound vibration and experience the joyous results.

A life worth living. "I am the supreme person"

The perfection of Yoga.

There have been many yoga systems popularized in the western world, expecially in this century, but none of them have actually taught the perfection of yoga.

It is certainly remarkable that the 'perfection of yoga' was taught in the middle of a battlefeild. It was taught to Arjuna, the warrior, just before Arjuna was to engage in a internecine battle.

"Why should I fight against my own kinsmen?" Arjuna thought. That reluctance to fight was due to Arjuna's illusion... Sri Krisna spoke the Bhagavad Gita to him.

What is yoga then?

Yoga is the best possible excercise there is for improving suppleness. However, yoga postures are more then physical poses; they work on the MIND and SPIRIT, and promote increased AWARENESS, VITALITY, and inner PEACE.

There are many forms of yoga. Astanga for example is flowing and dynamic, while Shivananda is very gentle. Iyengar yoga is the most precise method.
