PBS Documentry - The Buddha

You can watch the 2 hour documentary by David Grubin called The Buddha on PBS's Website.  It is narrated by Richard Gere for the most part and explores the life of The Buddha, the myths and some of the teachings.  Only wish it was on the PBS Channel on Roku so I could easily watch it on my TV instead of my computer.

Is that all there is? Never

"My friend, this life we live, it's not what we have, it's what we believe in.....There might be more then you believe and there might be more then you can see."  -- It's not my time, 3 Doors Down.

Compare the latter part to what Hamlet said in Shakespeare's play of the same name

There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio, than are dreamt of in your philosophy. -- Hamlet, Act 1, Scene 5

Peace Pilgram interview part 2

Peace Pilgram

There was a wonderful woman by the name of Peace Pilgrim. She walked for the cause of peace with nothing more then the clothes on her back. She gave away all of her worldly possessions. She walked until given shelter and fasted until given food. She did this for over 30 years. I will leave you with this video interview and will speak about her again later.
