σπίτι, Τεξανός πότε τεκμηριωμένος ταινία παραγωγόs- διευθυντής Khashyar Darvich was προσκάλεσα σε οθόνη δικός του βραβείο- νικητήs ταινία για the Dalai Lama, ‘Dalai Lama Aναγέννηση’ ( αφηγήθηκα από Harrison Ford www.DalaiLamaFilm.com), για τρόφιμος μέσα μέγιστος ασφάλειες φυλακή κοντά σπίτι, Τεξανός, αυτόs αμέσως είπα ‘yes.’
αυτόs προσφορά αγοράζω δικός του δικός έναs αερογραμμή εισητήριο, παρακολουθώ the screenings, και τότε μιλώ μαζί με τρόφιμος έπειτα.
“εγώ είχα ποτέ been σε έναs φυλακή πριν” είπα διευθυντής Darvich. “μα, εγώ είχα έναs βαθύς αίσθημα ότι the εμπειρία φιλόδοξος με νόημα και ισχυρός, για the τρόφιμος, μα επίσηs για me.”
“πότε εγώ αίσθηση ότι my καρδιά ανταποκρίνομαι σε κάτι, και αισθάνομαι ζεστός μέσα my στήθοs, τότε εγώ παίρνω this όπως έναs καθαρός υπογράφω ότι είναι το σωστό πράγμα για εμένα καταδιώκω ότι πορεία του δράση. The fundamental intention του making this ταινία was σε impact και μεταμορφωτήs ακροατήριο μέσα έναs θετικός way,” Darvich says,Β “ και εγώ thought του όχι καλύτερος γλώσσα σε οθόνη ‘Dalai Lama Aναγέννηση’ από έναs φυλακή”
μισό του τρόφιμος ποιόs παρακολούθησα the screenings μέσα στο δύο Τεξανός φυλακή, λυκάνθρωπος καταδίκασα του δολοφονία, μερικά του αυτούς για διπλός δολοφονία. εκεί λυκάνθρωπος μερικά μέσα στο ακροατήριο ποιόs λυκάνθρωπος καταδίκασα του απάτη.
οπωσδήποτε, Darvich was πολύ έκπληξη σε πωs insightful και ευφυής the τρόφιμος σχόλιο λυκάνθρωπος για the ταινία, και πωs the τρόφιμος έκανα αίτηση the θέματα και insights μέσα στο ταινία σε themselves μέσα έναs πολύ προσωπικό και διευθύνω δρόμος.
'Dalai Lama Aναγέννηση' παραγωγόs- διευθυντής Khashyar Darvich μιλώ με τρόφιμος από το ακόμα μέγιστος ασφάλειες φυλακή κοντά σπίτι, Τεξανός μετά the οθόνη του δικός του ταινία για the Dalai Lama σε τρόφιμος.
“έναs του κύριοs θέματα του ταινία” says Darvich, “is επιλύω αμφότεροι inner και outer conflicts, και κατανόηση ότι the καλύτερος δρόμος επιλύω conflicts μέσα στο κόσμοs και μέσα δικό σου κοινότητα is σε πρώτος επιλύω θέμα με εσύ ο ίδιος. εγώ was πολύ έκπληξη σε πωs the τρόφιμος understood this αμέσως, και έκανα αίτηση the μήνυμα του ταινία αμέσως και άκοπος σε themselves.”
έναs του τρόφιμος μέσα στο ακόμα μέγιστος ασφάλειες φυλακή μέσα Τεξανός, was ευσυγκίνητος και εκφράζω, όπως αυτόs έδειξα δικός του δάκτυλα σε δικός του στήθοs, ότι the θέμα του Θιβέτ και Κίνα ανέφερα μέσα στο ταινία και the πραγματοποίηση ότι εμείs όλος έχω δικός μας δικός “Inner Θιβέτ” αλήθεια impacted αυτόν.
“έναs του πραγματοποιήσεις ότι was κρύσταλλο καθαρός σε εμένα διάστημα εγώ was στο φυλακή” Darvich says, “was ότι μερικά του τρόφιμος θα ποτέ είμαι ικανός σε αποκτώ έξω, και λυκάνθρωπος ξοδεύω κάθε ημέρα του δικό τουs ζωέs μέσα φυλακή. για most άνθρωποι, this φιλόδοξος έναs καταθλίπτω και unfathomable thought. πριν εγώ επισκεύτηκα the φυλακή, μόλιs φανταστικός the thought του being incarcerated δημιούργησα φόβος και πανικός με me.”
πολλοί του τρόφιμος ποιόs παρακολούθησα the screenings έχω ζωή πρόταση, και είχα πολύ από ώρα σε λεπτός και αντανακλώ.
και ακόμα, Darvich says, έναs πρόσωπο ποιόs είναι αυτόs όχι physically μέσα φυλακή, μπορώ εμφανίζομαι έχω όλοι the ελευθερία μέσα στο κόσμοs, και ακόμα να είμαι imprisoned από δικό τουs thoughts, συνήθεια και the φυλακή ότι αυτοί δημιουργώ με δικό τουs δικός μυαλό.
“τρόφιμος ποιόs χάνω δικό τουs ελευθερία διαμέσου δικό τουs λάθος και ενέργειες” Darvich says, “ μπορώ επιλέγω σε βλέπω δικό τουs ώρα μέσα φυλακή όπως έναs ευκαιρία, και έναs γλώσσα για πνευματικός μαθαίνω και πρόσωπο μεγαλώνω”
Darvich was μιλώ μαζί με πρόσωπο ποιόs προσκάλεσα αυτόν σε οθόνη the ταινία μέσα στο φυλακή, Terry Conrad, the διευθυντής του‘προβλημένος καθαρός ελαφρύς’ (www.projectclearlight.org), για πωs the ζωή του έναs τρόφιμος is μάλλον αρέσω έναs καλόγερος ποιόs ζωέs μέσα έναs μοναστήρι.
υπερβάλλω μέσα στο περίπτωση του τρόφιμος, δικό τουs κόσμοs is συχνά περιβάλλον από βία, ο οποίος is έναs πρόσθεσα κίνητρο σε δουλειά επάνω εύρημα inner ειρήνη.
μετά the screenings και QA& συνεδρίαση, Darvich είπα ότι πολλοί του τρόφιμος ανέφερα ότι αυτοί κάνω όχι εμπειρία πολλοί θετικός ζωή- επιβεβαιώνω εμπειρίες μέσα φυλακή, και αυτοί τσόχα εμπνευσμένος και impacted με το οθόνη, και ακούω στο Dalai Lamas’ λέξη για compassion και προσωπικό ευθύνη.
“But,” Darvich says, “ αυτό τσόχα καλός σε my καρδιά και έναs του most με νόημα πράγμα έχω done μαζί με ταινία σε δείχνω τρόφιμος ότι κάποιος χάδι και θέλω σε δείχνω compassion…”
Darvich says ότι αυτόs θα αρέσω σε οθόνη the ταινία μέσα άλλος φυλακή, και έχω περισσότερο ανοίγω διάλογος με τρόφιμος.

Dalai Lama Renaissance Film chosen for special screening during the Dalai Lama’s Sept 25-26 visit to the Los Angeles area/Long Beach
Khashyar | August 23, 2009
‘Dalai Lama Renaissance,’ the award-winning documentary film narrated by Harrison Ford, has been chosen for a special screening during the Dalai Lama’s Sept 25-26 visit to the Los Angeles area, by one of the coordinators of the Dalai Lama’s visit.
The Tibetan Association of Southern California will screen ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ on the first night of the Dalai Lama’s public talk and teachings in Long Beach, CA on Friday September 25, at the Scottish Rite Cathedral in Long Beach.
Producer-Director Khashyar Darvich, as well as Tibetan special guests, will appear after the screening for a Q&A with the audience.
The screening of the documentary film, which Darvich has offered as a fundraiser for the Tibetan Association of Southern California, follows criticism of the film by the Chinese Communist Party, after ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ received front page press in Taiwan after it opened theatrically in that Chinese-speaking country.
In July, the Peopleβs Daily, a daily newspaper and media arm of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, quickly and sharply criticized ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance’ in an article in its online edition.
Darvich has offered to travel to Mainland China and screen ‘Dalai Lama Renaissance,’ with the intention of listening to the views of the Chinese People and Government, and to foster a constructive dialogue.

Harrison Ford Documentary, Dalai Lama Renaissance, Attacked by Chinaβs Communist Party
Khashyar | July 28, 2009
China's Communist Party has attacked the "Dalai Lama Renaissance" Documentary Film
Β
Chinese government reacts to successful theatrical premiere of Dalai Lama film and positive press in Taiwan
Los Angeles, CA (July 29, 2009) The Chinese government often has the clout and muscle to prevent Hollywood films from being released in Asia, and can even discourage films from having an extended release in the West if they are perceived to threaten Chinese policy.
Films starring such big name stars as Richard Gere and Sharon Stone were boycotted by China after the actors expressed support for the Tibet Independence Movement. After Disney released Kundun, Martin Scorseseβs 1997 feature film about the Dalai Lama, the studio incurred the wrath of the Chinese government, and Disney films were banned for an indefinite period of time.
Recently, after a theatrical documentary film about the Dalai Lama and narrated by Harrison Ford entitled Dalai Lama Renaissance (www.DalaiLamaFilm.com) was released in theaters in Taiwan this summer and received front page positive press in the Chinese language Taiwanese newspapers, the Chinese government took keen notice.
The Peopleβs Daily, a daily newspaper and media arm of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, quickly and sharply criticized Dalai Lama Renaissance in an article in its online edition.
The article, posted July 14th in the Peopleβs Daily Online entitled βWestern Movies Build Grand and Perfect Image of Dalai Lama,β argues that βin recent years, a wave of βDalai Lama feverβ has appeared in the Western movie industryβ¦ describing the Chinese governmentβs peaceful liberation of Tibet as βcruel oppression,β and depicting the Dalai Lamaβs life in India as difficultβ¦ Some movies even advocate the Dalai Lamaβs concept of [Tibetan] βindependence.ββ
Although the title of the article refers to βMovies,β the article exclusively focuses on Dalai Lama Renaissance. Referring to the film, which has been distributed in cinemas around the world, the article criticizes that βthe part of the movie related to the peaceful liberation of Tibet was filled with political bias, reflecting the directorβs ignorance and misunderstanding of Tibetβs historyβ¦ The movie transforms the Dalai Lama into an omniscient sage, reflecting a βmisunderstandingβ of the Dalai Lama’s image in the West… In fact, what these movies depict is just the βanesthesiaβ given by the Dalai Lama to the West.β
The fact that the Chinese Communist Partyβs main media organization has chosen to criticize the film may be a defensive reaction to the very positive press that Dalai Lama Renaissance received in the Chinese language media in Taiwan, where it premiered in front of sold-out audiences on June 1. And it may be an attempt to counteract any effect on readers in mainland China, who often have access to Chinese language news from Taiwan.
Taiwanβs best-selling weekly newspaper, E Weekly, gave the film a rating of 82, which is one of the highest ratings that a film has received in the past year in Taiwan. According to its Taiwanese theatrical distributor, Blockbuster of Taiwan (no relation to Blockbuster video in the United States), E Weekly regularly gives films far lower ratings. FTV, a television station in Taiwan, also reported that that the premiere of the film in Taiwan was very successful, with not an empty seat in the cinema, and that βmany people were touched after watching the film.β The Taipei Times wrote that βthe film rapidly grabs hold of youβ¦ an insightful documentary.β
Ironically, the Chinese Communist Party may feel most threatened by the idea brought up in the film regarding economic sanctions against China from the West. But despite this being a near unanimous suggestion by the Westerners in a scene in Dalai Lama Renaissance, the Dalai Lama discouraged the proposal.
The Taiwanese newspaper The Liberty Times points out that, in the film, βthe Dalai Lama thinks that humanity is the most important thing in the world and economic sanctions might affect many Chinese citizens, thus he is hesitant whether such an approach is right.β
The Peopleβs Daily also tries to discredit the producer-director of the film, Khashyar Darvich. In its article, the newspaper claims that the director is a βfollowerβ of the Dalai Lama, and supports this assertion by referring to an interview where Darvich mentioned that he produced the film party for the opportunity to spend time with the exiled Tibetan leader.
βItβs interesting that the Chinese Communist Party refers to me as a follower of the Dalai Lama,β Darvich responded. βAlthough I respect the Dalai Lama as a man of peace, just as the Nobel Peace Prize Committee did by awarding him the Nobel Peace prize, and as do most governments around the world, I am not a Dalai Lama groupie. When I began the film, I was not very familiar with the Dalai Lamaβs ideas. I think that his actions, and the respect that he garners around the world, speaks for itself.β
Despite the Chinese Communist Partyβs attempt to discredit the film, Producer-Director Khashyar Darvich states that his production company, Wakan Films, has just signed an agreement to release Dalai Lama Renaissance unofficially into China itself, under the radar of the Chinese Government.
βMy hope,β says Darvich, βis that the film will open a dialog between the Chinese government and the Dalai Lama, and that the average Chinese citizen will be able to see that the Dalai Lama is not such a bad guy and is interested in a solution to the Tibet issue that serves the highest good and benefits both the Chinese and Tibetans. I would be happy to attend a screening of the film in China and conduct a Q&A with Chinese audiences as a way to contribute to positive dialog.β

Techung, the Tibetan artist who is the featured musician on the “Dalai Lama Renaissance” soundtrack, has been making much news lately, including embarking on an international tour.
He also has launched his new website: www.techung.com
Here are some recent quotes about Techung from some notable people and in the press:
*******
I had the pleasure of working with Techung, the young Tibetan singer at a recent concert at Carnegie Hall(February 3,2009). He is a highly gifted singer, bursting with talent and personality. I think he is an unusually attractive performer and clearly has the potential to appeal to an audience far beyond the ethnic Tibetan community who already know him quite well. A young man of such talent representing the culture, as it were, of this exiled and oppressed community, could very well have the effect of bringing greater attention to the problems faced by Tibetans living inside and outside of Tibet.
I wish him and those who support him the very best success.
- Philip Glass, March 27, 2009
“Techung” (aka Tashi D. Sharzur) is an exceptional Tibetan musical talent: rigorously trained as an opera “star” by the grand masters of Lhamo, the traditional opera, at the Tibetan Institute of Performing Arts, and with the a life-long background in Tibetan folk music. In recent years, he has written and performed dozens of new songs. While each song appears unmistakably Tibetan and traditional, they are in reality modern compositions with contemporary lyrics, often his own. “Yarlung-Tibetan Songs of Love and Freedom” is an outstanding example of new Tibetan music that will reach a global audience.

former representative of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and “Kalon Tripa” of the Tibetan Government in Exile.

“His eyes are as hauntingly serene as his voice, singing of a homeland he has never seen. His call for courage Nying Thop cuts through the balmy night air and floats off, carrying the message to his countrymen scattered all over the world: “Never lose courage.”
Techung, a prominent Tibetan singer-songwriter, was one of the most anticipated acts in the recently concluded 2nd Penang World Music Festival, which …”

Khashyar | March 3, 2009
CLEVELAND,OHIO- Renown Tibetan musician Techung, who wrote and recorded all of the Tibet music for βDalai Lama Renaissanceβ, and who recently peformed at Carnegie Hall with Phillip Glass, will be joining βDalai Lama Renaissanceβ Producer-Director Khashyar Darvich for Q&Aβs at the Cleveland Cinemateque in Cleveland, Ohio.
Techung will join Khashyar at the Saturday 7:30 p.m. and Sunday 4 p.m. screenings of the film at the Cleveland Cinemateque.
Techung is one of the most respected Tibetan musicians in the world, with his music used in other films.
His biography is below:
Tashi Dhondup Sharzur (Contributing Music)
Techung is a prominent Tibetan singer/songwriter living in exile in the San Francisco Bay Area. He is best known for his performances of traditional Tibetan music, dance, and opera under the name Tashi Dhondup Sharzur. He uses his childhood nickname, Techung, when performing as a solo artist. Whether performing in traditional or contemporary styles, Techungβs dual goals are to revive Tibetan music in the Tibetan community and to expose the rich performing cultural tradition of his homeland to the world community. In addition to being looked up to as one of the key keepers of traditional Tibetan musical traditions, Techung is also respected for the original solo and collaborative music he creates by drawing on both his own heritage and his familiarity with other world music traditions. Techungβs voice and music have been featured on the soundtracks of the IMAX film βEverest,β the feature film βWindhorse,β the documentary films βStranger in My Native Land,β βTibetβs Stolen Child,β and βThree Days for Tibetβ (about a concert in Dharamsala with Joan Osborne, Zakir Hussein and other musicians). His music was also featured on PSAβs for the Milarepa Fund (promoting the 1999 Tibetan Freedom Concert), Studentsβ For a Free Tibetβs DVD demo βTibet Will Be Freeβ, and Amnesty International (soliciting support for the human rights case of Ven. Palden Gyatso), as well as on an audio book by Diki Tsering titled βDalai Lama, My Son.β His music is currently being used in the documentary film βWhat Remains of Usβ which was selected at 2004 CANNES film festival. His music will be used in the upcoming Tibetan feature film βDreaming of Lhasaβ (working title: Poison Charm) directed by Tenzing Sonam and Ritu Sarin.
