'On Life and Enlightment' explores Tibetan Vajrayana Buddhism in all its various manifestations. The concept of the liberated mind, through compassion and discipline, has created a maltitude of forms that resonate with the grandeur of the Karakoram Himalayas and the extreme of austerity and sacrifice.
Over a thousand years, the Tibetans have crystallized the ideas on non-duality and realized the pathways of the mind. They developed techniques and rituals, each of which was designed to bring the adept closer to the spirituals, each of which was designed to bring the adept closer to the spiritual heights held as the ideal.
This 5-part program takes you to the upper reaches of the Himalaya's and across thousands of miles to go inside of the thriving monasteries in Tibet and India. You will witness the spiritual journeys and that the thousands of Buddhist monks undergo in their rigorous training and spectacular ancient rituals. The path to enlightenment is presented through these insightful teachings and techniques
I'm grateful to have a choice like Vajrayana that we can put in place of religious traditions that instill fear, control, all-or-none thinking and behaving, denial --violence to the mind, body and spirit.

As a former Buddhist, I can tell you this I was saved by Jesus. Nothing else matters only your soul. Go to Him before it is too late. Stop worshiping other gods who can't answer your needs when you need help. Jesus is always ready for you; just call on His name! and you'll be saved from HELL! Please Be Smart for your own sake.
He is the Prince of PEACE, if you want peace then He is your answer. You don't have to meditate for hours & hold-close to the scriptures of Buddha-its all vanity(vain).
