Acclaimed filmmaker and spiritual activist Velcrow Ripper, director of Fierce Light and Scared Sacred discusses the global zeitgeist of compassionate action that is exploding around the planet today - "humanity’s immune response to a planet in crisis". It is the power that is released when spirituality is combined with activism, a transformation that is both inner and outer. Gandhi called it "soul force", Thich Nhat Hanh calls it "love in action", for Ripper it is "Fierce Light." It is the force of the Sacred Warrior, heart centered and fierce at the same time. A dynamic, engaging exploration of the world of spirit in action.
