The story is every once in a while a member of the human race achieves another level of Divinity. Whether they’re called saints, prophets, or popes, the Messiah or the Dalai Lama—they are revered by huge populations as being Holy—having the quality of Godliness. Forget about attaining that level of righteousness in our real lives, what about simply trying to capture the essence of these sacred figures as a story-teller or actor? Today, we discuss “The Challenges of Portraying Holiness.” This is part 1 of a two-part series. In a companion episode we discuss “The Challenges of Portraying Evil” so be sure to look for that, wherever you’re consuming this podcast.
