This is my final post on the topic, mainly to refer you to other
sources.

Do you realise that the whole film is an excuse to promote her
doctrine? That two of the directors are her "students"? That a
professor of philosphy of physics featured prominently throughout the
film is "outraged at the final product"?

"
By the end of the film, during the credits, she is identified as the
spirit "Ramtha" who is being "channeled" by "JZ Knight.". Knight was
born Judith Darlene Hampton in Roswell, New Mexico. The spirit, Ramtha,
whom she claims to channel, is "a 35,000 year-old warrior spirit from
the lost continent of Lemuria and one of the Ascended Masters."
"

That quote is from the Wikipedia entry for the film, which I suggest
anyone considering watching it reads beforehand:

No argument there.
