Spiritual Cinema
The cinema is one of the most popular forms of human entertainment, and major movie stars comprise some of the best known and highest paid people on the planet. But movies can also serve to inspire as well as entertain. This life imitating art sometimes gives cause for concern, eg where on-screen violence is blamed for its real world equivalent. However, it can also be highly valuable, eg where movies bring viewers closer to their Spiritual essence.
