Shia LaBeouf found God on Fury set

Shia LaBeouf found God on the set of new war movie Fury and credits co-star Brad Pitt and director David Ayer with helping him achieve a new level of spirituality.

The actor is trying to get his life back on track following a series of bizarre incidents and alcohol-fuelled bar fights and legal issues, and he insists his new-found love of religion will help him get past his troubles.

In a new Interview magazine expose, the Transformers star calls himself a "Christian man", insisting he's serious about being a man of God.

He says, "Not in a f**king bullshit way, in a very real way. I could have just said the prayers that were on the page. But it was a real thing that really saved me. And you can't identify (it) unless you're really going through it. It's a full-blown exchange of heart, a surrender of control. And while there's beauty to that, acting is all about control. So that was a wild thing to navigate.

"I had good people around me (on the set) who helped me. Brad was really instrumental in guiding my head through this. Brad comes from a hyper-religious, very deeply Christian, Bible Belt life, and he rejected it and moved toward an unnamed spirituality. He looked at religion like the people's opium, almost like a Marxist view on religion.

"Whereas David is a full subscriber to Christianity. But these two diametrically opposed positions both lead to the same spot, and I really looked up to both men. It was nice to have conversations with Brad about the family he came from and what he was using to get through the day."

On a spiritual odyssey

The rich Indian culture and spirituality has cast a spell on a four-member foreign delegation. Alice from Taiwan, Helen from Malaysia and Moon and Theresa from China, who were on a four-day visit to West Godavari district in pursuit of spiritual knowledge, were overwhelmed by the local temple architecture and rituals.

The grandeur of the Sri Chennakesava Ramalingeswara Swamy Temple at Sanivarapupeta and its imposing Rajagopuram, dating back to the East Chalukyan era, left the delegation awe-struck. They spent time on the temple premises doing meditation and learning about the design and history of the Rajagopuram, which is under renovation. Helen, the team leader, said the team would also visit Dwaraka Tirumala, the abode of Sri Venkateswara Swamy.

They were also drawn towards Sri Sri Ravi Shankars Art of Living Foundation. Helen said she had been a messenger of the foundations guiding principles of love and peace for the last three decades.

Moon and Theresa said Sri Sri Ravishankars message of universal love had helped them transcend all barriers to remain united with people across the globe. After all, love knows no colour, race, religion and frontiers. We are trying to take it to people all over with all the warmth, Helen said.

The team visited villages such as Ammapalem, Ankannagudem and Chodimella and mingled with the rural folks, while language failed to be any barrier. India is a great source of spiritual knowledge. Dont go out to seek it out elsewhere. It is very much here only, within your doorstep, the team said.
