Your Mind is Bigger than all the Supermarkets in the World : Some guidance for a lost Westerner Upplaga 1
"CECILIA: Oh, I have big questions for you! Shall I take the biggest one first?
UPUL: Yes, yes.
CECILIA: What is the meaning of life?
UPUL: Wow...! It depends on your point of view. According to a Buddhist point of view, to understand about the meaning of life is the great meaning. Life is a great laboratory for you to do your own experiments.
CECILIA: But why do we suffer?
UPUL: Because we don´t learn about it. Like if you drive a car without knowing how to drive, you are going to suffer, and the car is going to suffer, and others are going to suffer too..."
In 2004 Swedish film-maker Cecilia Neant Falk went to the Nilambe Buddhist Meditation Centre in Sri Lanka. During the retreat she met meditation teacher Upul Nishanta Gamage. Since then Neant Falk has returned to Nilambe every year, always bringing her camera and microphone. The continuous conversations at 4 p.m. in the afternoons between Cecilia and Upul takes us on an existentiai journey where a Westerner´s questions on time, memory, art, violence, parenthood, happiness, work and meaning are answered from a down-to-earth Buddhist philosophical perspective.
"Whether you start reading from the beginning, middle or the end, it does not really matter. Feel free to jump into our conversations wherever it suits you. This is a circular book." - Cecilia Neant Falk
YOUR MIND IS BIGGER THAN ALL THE SUPERMARKETS IN THE WORLD - Some guidance for a lost Westerner is also an experimental documentary, a meditative experience an art project.
