Easter, April 20(th); Passover, April 15(th); and Vesak May 13th (commemorating the Buddha's birthday) are celebrated each spring. At the heart of each religion's Spring Holy Day is the acknowledgement and faith of the presence of The Spirit of the Creator that imbues all existence with life and renewal.

At the core of all faiths lies the same belief and experience of the "Source of Existence," filmmaker Catherine Corona surprisingly discovered as she interviewed worshippers of the 6 major world religions: Judaism, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam and Lakota Traditional Spirituality (representing the 6(th) largest Spiritual tradition: indigenous faiths).

"Compassion, understanding and peace thrive when we embrace our similarities and understand that no matter what faith tradition -- we all are born and come from the same Spiritual Spring," says Corona, writer/producer/director of "The Great Mystery."

"There's a Great Mystery out there. You can open yourself up to it; experience some of it. But you'll never understand it. But you don't need to understand it. You just need to relate to it," explains Vine Deloria, Jr. in the movie (considered one of the leading theologians in the past hundred years).

That is what the Spring Holy Days are about, preparing the fertile spring ground and continuing to renew our relationship with the Divine. Awareness and mystery are revealed through the many fascinating voicesin "The Great Mystery."

In acknowledgement and celebration of these Holy Days, Corona Films is presenting a FREE online screening of the award-winning Feature Documentary "The Great Mystery," an exploration of the 6 major world religions.

"Combining her curiosity about God with a quest to contribute like her uncle, Corona embarked on a road trip through western America. In the film she visits a Lakota holy site, Tibetan Buddhist temple, Islamic mosque, Catholic church, Jewish synagogue and Hindu temple to inquire about perceived divisions among religions." - Chicago Tribune Review

"[The Great Mystery is] a noble effort in acquainting people with the similarities among the world's different religions and poses commendable hope in their ability to work together to produce everlasting peace. Overall, it does a great job of promoting interfaith tolerance and coexistence, as well as launching a plea for interreligious cooperation in order to solve the world's many problems today." - Islamic Insights Review
