These comments were offered following the premiere in San Diego, CA:

This movie was unbelievably amazing! Swami Satchidananda was a great visionary with a big heart and astute mind. What a wonderful blessing for us to have had this master in our presence. I recommend this movie to everyone who wants to experience a greater knowledge from a real ecumenist! — Kamala

A generous contribution to our understanding of Yoga and it’s tremendous impact on our culture. I strongly recommand getting a copy of this film. — Yunjana (on SanDiegoReader.com)

I didn’t know anything about the yoga movement and after seeing the film, I wish I had known about it earlier and could have known Swami Satchidananda. I have little kids and I want to introduce yoga into their lives. Thanks for the awakening!! — Beautiful_Goddess (on SanDiegoReader.com)

A Report from the Delray Beach, Florida Screening

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

For those of us who were blessed to find Sri Gurudev many years ago, Living Yoga, the movie is a trip down memory lane.  Somehow, these talented filmmakers were able not only to capture our beloved teacher but also to place Him in the times that indeed “were a changing…”    As a student and teacher of Integral Yoga for the past thirty years, I was amazed at how much I didn’t know or maybe remembered.  The movie layers so much information that it educates the beginner, as well as the advanced yogi.  It reminded me of so many fabulous moments in Gurudev’s presence.  His sense of humor, His love of fun and always His gentleness as He reassured us that we only need to do our best.  Embracing His teachings changed the course of my life and continues to guide me on a daily basis.  I am forever grateful and thank the producers, especially Prem, who, for decades, literally followed in Gurudev’s footsteps, camera in hand to bring Him to life on the big screen.   I think He would laugh and say “So, now I am a movie star, a yogi movie star!! You see, anything is possible, have faith!!”   Anandi Annechild
