Guest guest Posted February 15, 2002 Report Share Posted February 15, 2002 Dear Friends, I am putting together a proposal for a Public Access TV show here in Seattle. I don't intend, at least for now, to produce my own shows, but I would like to begin by broadcasting videos of talks by spiritual teachers in the nondual tradition. Besides needing videos, I also need written permission from the copyright owners of the videos. If anyone can loan me tapes to broadcast, please contact me. And if you are the copyright owner, or can put me in touch with the copyright owner, that would also be very much appreciated. I am facing a deadline (Feb. 27) for getting this proposal in. Thanks.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Hi Mark, That's a great idea!!! I wonder if possibly the people who are IN the videos wouldn't be glad to give you the video and permission and all, in exchange for your promoting it by showing it. At least the live ones. I know you are pressed for time, and pardon my butting in a new idea, but I also think a great angle for getting the idea approved is to throw in occasional interviews of people in the Seattle community..like yoga teachers, see what you have going on there in the way of Zen, alternative health providers, etc. Including the community of Seattle, say once a week, makes it appealing to Public Access concerns. The very groups you hope would want to watch your videos, your audience, so to speak..put them on! Also, any book promo type interviews might be done by borrowing tapes of those already done elsewhere, the book publishers might provide those to you. I say this because I wonder how soon you might run out of videos, just doing strictly nondual teachers. Jerry's list of teachers may make it seem there are tons of them...but how many have videos already made? Take a look at what wisdom TV station is doing for ideas you might borrow. They are really into a much more mixed bag, still good ideas and people are there. http://www.wisdommedia.com/default.asp?page=/tvrd/frames.asp?Media=TV Also, the place that already has contacts with almost everyone books, classes, seminars, satsangs, etc... is of course, Omega Institute. They might be willing to provide contact information, plus just looking at their list of offerings would give you more ideas. Just click under "knowledge base, faculty websites for a lst of dozens of famous AND lesser known people who could be teachers with videos. www.eomega.org Hey, I hope this can work out for you. It was just seeing a borrowed video of Thich Nhat Hanh that got me started into exploring Buddhism, and then one thing led to another.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Dear Mark, As far as I know, all the videos that Krishnamurti made, not UG, but J. Krishnamurti, are archived and available for public viewing at the Library that has been made out of his former residence in Ojai, CA. you've got a wonderful idea. Good Luck with it. yours in the bonds, eric Ps: As far as I understand it, all the videos, as well as the books, that my own Guru, Baba Muktananda made, are held very close to the vest by the current SYDA Foundation, which represents the intentions of Gurumai Chidvilasananda. This is obviously a matter of controlling rather than promulgating S. Muktananda's thoughts, but is not uncharacteristic of Gurumai's approach to things. , "Mark Hovila" <hovila@f...> wrote: > Dear Friends, > > I am putting together a proposal for a Public Access TV show here in > Seattle.

Guest guest Posted February 16, 2002 Report Share Posted February 16, 2002 Hi Mark, i live in the Seattle area and would be glad to help out in some respect, especially if the idea "flies" and subsequent videos go on to cover topics not directly related to "spiritual teachers" as a category. i have no automobile, but could assist with anything that could be transmitted over the Net -- fast cable connection here. Or anything else that might come to mind... however, i have no broadcasting experience per-se.
