The Gurusharananda Scene in Enlighten Up! The quality of this youtube clip is poor, but I think the content is amazing. The filmmaker, Kate Churchill selected a subject, Nick Rosen, who agreed to be immersed in yoga for six months, visit several teachers, and be followed on camera. The journey to enlightenment does not go as expected (as the journeys we place upon others, or even ourselves, rarely do). In this clip Nick meets with Gurusharananda at the Karshini Ashram in Northern India. The conversation is golden.
Be yourself. Be your true self.
As much as possible try to get rid of what you are not and you are unnecessarily wearing on yourself. Try to get rid of it. Happiness is not outside. It is within us...it is ourselves.
The film is now streaming on netflix and hulu if you wish to see this scene and the rest of the film in better quality.
