Rabbi Marc Gafni compares a person's individual spirit to the uniqueness of their fingerprint, dubbing the former a "soul print." In this 73-minute lecture, he describes the principles and practical applications of his philosophy culled from his study of many religious and ethnic traditions. The essence is to better appreciate the life you have and redirect your energy in the parts that make you unhappy. He promises the viewer "access to the precise and gorgeous nature of your spirit," suggesting exercises like making a list of the 10 most important things in your life. He offers mantras and stories from Buddhism, Russia, West Africa, and his own ministry--even singing a short "soul print song" a cappella. Much of his advice is common sense (If you treat the waiter badly, he will treat you badly), but he presents it in an energetic and inspiring manner. However, this PBS Special is interrupted so frequently with shots of an enthusiastically applauding audience that one might think he was selling a food preparation gadget rather than inner peace. Unfortunately, the effect is that of a hard sell for material that should speak for itself. --Kimberly Heinrichs

From the Back Cover
Using the power of ancient and modern myth along with the wisdom of his own personal experiences, inspirational religious leader and philosopher Marc Gafni reveals an extraordinary approach to living happier, fuller lives. Addressing the age-old desire to feel "connected," Gafni offers advice on how to form bonds based in truth and love by identifying our true, unique selves - what he call our "Soul Prints." According to Gafni, each person has a unique Soul Print, which, like our fingerprint, marks their individuality. Once you come to know your Soul Print, you will be able to connect on a far deeper level with yourself, other and the world around you. In this insightful program, Marc Gafni explains how to find your Soul Print, how to receive the Soul Print of another, and how to share your Soul Print with those you know. These life-enriching tools will empower you to overcome loneliness and enjoy life to its fullest.

4.0 out of 5 stars Life Purpose 101, August 16, 2006

This review is from: Soul Prints - Your Path to Fulfillment (DVD)

"Everyplace we've been, we needed to be." ~Marc Gafni

This is one of those DVDs you come across and wonder why no one ever told you this before. The beauty of Marc Gafni's teaching is in the truth of his observations. We are all seeking meaning in life and he truly uncovers our soul's main desire.

What is the primal force driving us towards our future?
How can we move from loneliness to loving?
What is soul printing?
When we connect with another soul, what is really occurring?
Why should you make a "Soul Print" box?

I'm about to refinish a box I had as a child, that my father passed down to me and I'm thinking it will be perfect as a soul print box. This is a box that reminds you of who you are and can be a place to store items of great value. This DVD put the entire idea into perspective.

Marc Gafni has some unique insights into why people become jealous. I had never thought of this in relation to our soul's story. He is also quite a comedian at times and tells some pretty good stories that can at times leave you either laughing or pretty close to tears. (Try to overlook the clapping and structured style and you will truly benefit from this teaching session.)

When are you at your best?

This DVD will show you how to get to the place where you are living your story and imprinting life with your unique soul signature. Marc Gafni's energetic style shows his enthusiasm for his message and by the end of the hour, I was ready to look for additional materials to see what this insightful spiritual teacher is bringing to the world today.
