"Look Me in the Eye" was recently recorded by an impressive collection of singers, recording artists and studio musicians at the famed Boulevard Recording studio in Los Angeles, with lyrics that touch on the film's themes of civility, deep listening and authentic, compassionate conversations. Produced by Justin Stanley (Eric Clapton, Sheryl Crow, Jet), "Look Me in the Eye" features lead vocals from Phillips and Karaban and a band that includes fellow singer-songwriter Val McCallum on guitar, bassist Sebastian Steinberg (Soul Coughing), drummer Pete Thomas (Elvis Costello), and keyboardists Benmont Tench (Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers).
"I was truly inspired by the film and Glen felt the same way, so that made it easy to write the song," said Karaban. "It was really pretty special seeing all of these amazing musicians come together and lend their talents to the project. Seeing how happy everybody was to be a part of it was amazing."

IOC Interview with JOHN RAATZ
John: I founded, one of my functions is I founded a nonprofit organization called GATE, The Global Alliance for Transformational Entertainment. And the vision of GATE is transforming the world by transforming entertainment media from within. So the idea is to basically point people within. And transformation occurs and then that transformation is imbued in the work which then hopefully has the effect on people. So it’s really just calling the attention of people in entertainment media and the arts professionals to that kind of way of thinking, being, etc. in the world, because there’s a lot of dysfunction, obviously in any business these days. But certainly in entertainment media and the arts, there’s a lot of dysfunction that goes on. So this is our own little way of trying to heal that if you will.

Opening Our Eyes
A Conversation with John Raatz:
Something resonated with a teenager in Flint, Michigan in the late 1960s (along with countless others around the world) when the Beatles introduced the world to a cross- legged Indian guru named Maharishi Mahesh Yogi—and something called meditation. The impact on that teenager alone has been multiplied to a magnitude of millions. As a founder of GATE (Global Alliance for Transformational Entertainment), John Raatz has helped harness the power of America’s entertainment, arts and media industries to imbue its products with a deeper consciousness. “Behind what people pick up on when they appreciate a work of art is the fact they are always responding from and to consciousness.”
“Did I just kill this guy?” That was the thought I had while teaching meditation to a young man not so long ago. There’s a point at the close of the personal instruction where we say to the new meditator to open their eyes.
This young man would not open his eyes. I waited a little and asked him again. I gave the instruction again and again, perhaps 15 times, and then finally after about 10 minutes, he complied.
