MARSHALL ROSENBERG • Do conflicts end when needs are met? • from BEYOND BELIEF

The documentary film BEYOND BELIEF, directed by Jim Lemkin, explores the nature, uses and limits of beliefs and the consequences of unexamined beliefs. This heart-centered movie investigates real-life stories of people who, when they dared to question, discovered new worlds of understanding and common ground beyond their old beliefs. We go on a journey with wise ones and distinguish harming from healing beliefs. A compelling and open-minded film, BEYOND BELIEF asks what it really takes to fulfill our deepest and most sacred human needs beyond the realm of beliefs.

ABOUT HORSE MOUNTAIN INSTITUTE
HORSE MOUNTAIN INSTITUTE (HMI) is a non-profit public charity, 501(c)(3). Our mission is to engage in educational activities which promote holistic perspectives in health and healing of body, mind, spirit and society. Our goal is to help people embrace new paradigms of awareness, understanding and personal and social possibilities which can lead to enlightened action.
Since 1996, HMI and founder Dr. Jim Lemkin have produced communications that identify and uproot obstacles to our authentic human needs and potential. HMI produces, publishes and distributes visual, audio, print and other media both electronically and in material form.
HORSE MOUNTAIN STUDIO, a production arm of HMI, produces films and other media that are committed to healing and the human spirit from a holistic perspective. A goal of our production efforts is to reach and engage the widest possible audience.
One of our most recent films on the subject of healing and conscious dying, WALKING AT THE EDGE, aired nationally on PBS. We produced and disseminated an audio CD, NONVIOLENT COMMUNICATION AS A WAY TO PEACE, without charge to thousands of persons and groups nationally and internationally. It introduces practical ways for individuals, organizations and communities in conflict to communicate effectively, ensuring that all parties are able to express their authentic needs and feelings and be heard.
Currently a new film, BEYOND BELIEF, is in production. It asks, "Can individuals and communities with conflicting beliefs find meaningful common ground and human to human connection beyond the realm of those harming beliefs and belief systems?" It encourages open-minded inquiry into the causes and consequences of unexamined beliefs.
Another HMI project in production is CORPORATION AS HEALER, a book that introduces natural medicine's most time-tested principles of healing and applies them to corporate governance and consciousness. It is fundamentally a new cross-disciplinary model that creates healthy and profitable corporations using a holistic framework of wellbeing for all stakeholders in all ways.
HELP US GROW! Financial support helps further our work to remove obstacles that cause human suffering at all levels. Our goal is to elevate awareness of holistic thinking and to advance fresh and positive ways of creating a healthier world. You can help HMI with your creative contributions, suggestions, visions, and much needed tax-deductible 501(c)3 donations. 100% of HMI activities and projects are created and administered passionately on a volunteer basis.

Guess I've seen this before -- it still moves me and I appreciate that CNVC has made it available this way

I hope this video gets watched by many and the ideas taken on board.

Politicians and most men need this therapy of speaking with their needs and listening to our needs behind our words as women and children. How come this is still not done globally? All wars go back to violent actions started by aggressiveness and dominance. Cooperation will save us all. These skills need to be told on TV and other media in stead of stupid sitcoms. Mass education will save the Planet. #VPRO#CBS#EU#World. How come nobody is making programmes about this!??!!!

AMAZING. Thank you.

[@ruezart]

Are there any films like this (short and to the point) where Dr. Rosenberg and or others demonstrate how to apply Non Violent Communication in a high school to address conflicts such as bullying, students distracting others in a classroom, students harassing teachers in the classroom, sexual harassment, etc?

If you are looking, you surely will find..

[@amberlihartwell9stepstocloud9]

@@katarzynalindner594 You would thinks so - have you ever tried to bring anything into schools outside of thre curriculum? There are many violent people higher up who dont want resolution or empowerment - they want to keep their dominance and for others to beleive they are less than them. Their position is therefore threatened by anything that empowers others. Schools are perfect environment for this. They see leadership as being about who is best/fastest/strongest/most assertive/looks the part etc etc - zero place for heartfelt connection - if you try to bring it in you get shot down by flames! But I get your sentiment and in some countries they have made headway.
