How to find the music for this program:

1.) Google "Michael Bacon". He's the composer.

2.) His website should be the first result (michaelbaconmusic).

3.) Click on the music tab. He lets people download it free of charge. Awesome!

@Zeze80: The composer is, Micheal Bacon. He does all of the music for this documentary. I cannot, however, find his music on youtube, or itunes. But if you go to, Micheal Bacon's site, he has all of the songs posted in full there.

This is the most gorgeous feature on Buddha I have yet seen.

Bravo PBS. Every frame of ani mation is like some sort of surreal dream.

正宗的佛教？？？現在有多少人知道真正的佛教及夾帶其他雜質的佛­教！？？

真正佛教不是一個要你不要貪婪但是卻比你更貪婪！蓋大建築廟宇自­己享受在那當教主皇帝？？台灣的佛教就是這樣多數！這是金錢的宗­教！追求高級及享受！組織的擴大！土地的收購！很難讓人相信這些­人是不爭不搶不貪的！這與當時赤腳走路乞食為生的佛陀佛教差異太­大！他教你斷除煩惱及苦的因!真正享受快樂及遠離惡果的方式!及­道路!

所以真正的佛教的確可以改善自己的心及讓自己更平靜快樂！但是我­所見的大多是被催眠的信徒！因為他們所追尋的都是那種手拿錢財只­為自己享受卻口說為眾生的宗教！

太多這種亂七八糟讓人分不清的教授！他會代你到那裡？？佛教是要­自己不要懷疑自己能力及努力！但是絕對希望你去懷疑別人所說！不­要一因為人多或他身份不同就相信！對自己良知去自己證明及找答案­！這是佛所教的！絕對不是那些要你完全相信他不能懷疑他們的那種­教法！所以真正的佛法原始的教義及教團！對喜愛佛教的人來說才是­真正重要的事！因為他將帶領你到不同的方向！！

Here we go, finally, thanks to YouTube! (P.S. I'm actually not religious, but Buddha appeals to me the most)...;-)

Great presentation

[MrJustreason]

I am interested in the documentary and I like the attention this is getting. But I am started to get quite frustrated by what "Buddhism" has become. Tales of side births, dogmatic rituals and other tales to force the Buddha into some sort of holy figure. This is not what he taught. Such as the teaching of "dukkha" being falsely interpreted by many to mean suffering. That is not the full sense of the word, and takes away from the essential point, being Enlightenment can be achieved here and now.

[ChebregeDzRevolution]

Love it ...Can`t wait to watch it ...

[mech887]

Good

[NoRulesInNam]

Watching.

[M0U53B41T]

Very cool

[mikekrnboy]

@M0U53B41T hope they know buddha himself said he is a teacher not a God or prophet

[pajhlub]

@mikekrnboy

i agree, i think the buddha said something like he was to teach people to get out of samsara, the rebirth of life and death....i don't think that he said anything about being a god...

[MightySunTzu]

@mikekrnboy jesus said the same thing..... pretty much, christians dont fkin listen to that though... sorry that was a little negative.

[vinceo999]

@MightySunTzu

I think you're right. I think most of the world's religions say the same thing but humans have turned and manipulated these basic meanings for their own gain and power. It's a shame but, fortunately, Buddhism seems to have kept it's original message.

[TetsuDeinonychus]

This looks fantastic!

I think I'll watch it.

[teenzo]

This is beautifully presented. The animation is so engaging.
