Awakening

Awakening
Synopsis by Amin Behravan

Nowadays humans are imprisoned with many information, not to keep them going but to keep them stuck in their life. He is deeply stuck in mundane desires, but light always shines in the darkness. A book of light (Awakening) wakes him up from his deep sleep, but to be awakened it’s not easy, and as soon as his attention wants to go towards the book of Awakening, everything wants to hold him back and drag him into other mundane tasks and goals. But as he is so fed up with all of them, he reaches to the book and can save himself from being stuck in his life.

Once he is unstuck he is moving with the car of science towards an unknown destination, and when the car doesn’t take him anywhere, he once again reaches for the book of Awakening to show him the path of truth.

By this realization, he steps into emptiness, into the void of stop doing what everything outside of him tells him to do. In this state once again the book of Awakening tells him that he is on the right path, the desire to understand the meaning of life, keeps him clear from spams in life. And he can be in the infinite present moment.

So he starts to dance and be in the present moment, and his soul flies up to the sky.
