@jigmesam Richard Gere converted to Buddhism in his mid 20's he has been a practicing Buddhist for the majority of his life, he was borne in 1949 so he has been practicing for over 30 years. Research what I say, it is true.

Is there anyone "enlightened" in the world right now? Just a question because I'm interested in this.

The song on the beginning is Tribute to Tsurphu II by Chris Hinze. Richard had been a buddhist practitioner dirt many years and is very active in voicing the injustice that has befallen the Tibetan people by the Chinese occupation. Check up on his credentials if you like. I am so thankful for these videos and online resources that help bring the Dharma to more beings.

@C0C0nutFace Some people have these addictive personalities, and they just go totally hardcore with everything they do, and Buddhism gets these people sometimes. Give him time, the Dharma honeymoon won't last forever. Either that or he's a genuinly amazing practitioner - give him time to adjust and level out with it.
