About The Event

About A Quest for Meaning
A Quest for Meaning tells the story of two childhood friends and their life-changing journey around the world. Equipped with nothing more than a tiny camera and a microphone, Marc and Nathanael will attempt to uncover the causes of the current world crises and discover a way to bring about change. Through the messages of environmental activists, philosophers, biologists, and guardians of the ancient cultures, they invite us to join their adventure and partake in their questionings of the world.
A quest that gives confidence in our ability to influence things for the better. Change is at hand all over the world – a change in consciousness, motivated by our need to live in harmony with ourselves and with the world.

My understanding of compassion is that one lives it 24/7, regardless of circumstances. I attended this event and realized that the place was just pack with perpetrators, continuing with their obscure agenda of making themselves feel good when harassing others. For instance, the lights technician, after the auditorium was dark and the movie was just starting decided to turn on the side lights of the place creating a bothersome lighting effect that prevented from the full enjoyment of the film. Then Dr. Doty and the filmmaker decided to enter and stationed themselves in the back of the auditorium, next to their technician friend, talking and laughing without thinking of how much their actions could bother the audience and prevent people around them from fully enjoying the film. Then, the perpetrator photographer showed up, clicking his camera like a mad person during the Q & A session. Compassion means that we CARE about people and our environment, ALL the time, not only when we feel like it. It seems counter intuitive and on the verge of hypocrisy that after having had deep experiences these individuals with even shamans, their understanding of ONENESS still hasn’t sank deep into their consciousness and hearts. Living compassion out of only intellectual understanding allows darkness to advance their agenda. And I know this because I have been a targeted individual for 12+ years, my identity has been stolen to use it to harass me wherever I go, to create stories about me so that others can insult me and, especially, to create these “harassment theaters” to cause some negative emotional response from me I believe. And in spite of all this, I maintain my same reality of LOVE and COMPASSION even for people like you. I try to understand that perhaps you also have so much pain in your lives and that you allow darkness to make you nothing more than bothersome mosquitoes at this time in life. Your obscure agenda will not advance. Just be sure that Brothers and Sisters united in LIGHT are continuously working to prevent it from advancing!
