Title
Luminous: The Spiritual Life on Film - Paperback
by Mike King (Author)
This book is a comprehensive survey of religion and spirituality on film, covering both popular and arthouse movies. It seeks spiritual and moral depth, finding filmic examples across the world's faiths and sometimes in surprising places where religion has no obvious presence. Over 400 films are drawn on to shed light on issues that confront us in the serious pursuit of spirituality, culminating in the "sixty must-see films for the spiritual life." The examination of spiritual and religious questions is divided across twelve categories:
- Spiritual Aesthetics, Nature and the Romantic
- The Esoteric, the New Age and Neoplatonism.
- Dying, Suicide and Bereavement
- Ghosts, Angels and the Afterlife
- Reincarnation and Resurrection
- Spiritual Chaos and Rubber Reality
- Wisdom, Teachers, and Disciples.
- Priests, Monks, Nuns and Spiritual Community
- Spiritual Practice, Discipline and the Martial Arts.
- Violence, Compassion, Forgiveness and Atonement
- East vs. West
- Secular vs. Spiritual
