Thurman On Buddhism

March 28, 2010 Leave a comment

Via the magical low cost and high quality combo of Roku’s hardware and Netflix‘s “instant watch” feature, I just watched lovable Robert Thurman give a passionate and endearing talk on Buddhism. If you’re not into spiritual “stuff”, then don’t bother watching it cuz you’ll be bored out of your gourd after two minutes. However, if you are interested, please watch it because I think it may put you in a peaceful and wondrous place for its duration.

I first discovered Mr. Thurman a couple of years ago when he gave this moving TED talk. He’s a talented story teller and a tireless promoter of compassion in the true spirit of Buddhism. If you do watch him, be sure to note the gentle passion he exudes. I think it’s quite contagious.
