Thich Nhat Hanh returns to Vietnam

01/08/2006 - Zen teacher Thich Nhat Hanh returned to Vietnam after 39 years of exile. National Dutch television showed an excellent film about his homecoming. We see Thich Nhat Hanh walking through the streets of Ho Chin Minh City, suspiciously followed by the Vietnamese police. This film is in English with sporadic Dutch commentary.

ICT sends out Greeting Cards

12/16/2005 - The International Campaign for Tibet ICT did it again! Today, I received two greeting cards (you can see one of them on the left), made by Tibetan refugee children at the Tibetan Refugee Reception Center (TRRC) in Kathmandu, Nepal. "Like hundreds of others each year, this child has recently made the dangerous crossing from Tibet through the high mountain passes of the Himalayas to Nepal", ICT says.

ICT sends out Freedom Bracelets

11/04/2005 - The International Campaign for Tibet ICT has been sending out Freedom Bracelets to their members! The bracelets are hand woven and made by "nuns, former political prisoners and recent arrivals from Tibet". Tibetan prisoners began to produce the black and white bracelets to show solidarity with their partners in distress. They are now worn all over the world, especially by the Tibetan exiled community in India and Tibet, but now by many ICT members as well! You can buy the bracelets here!

The Six Paramitas

09/30/2005 - The Six Paramitas now on DVD! The Dalai Lama himself teaches us on four DVD's all about the way to freedom, wisdom, joy & harmony in life. The Six Paramitas (the liberating actions generosity, ethics, patience, diligence, concentration and wisdom) is a basic Buddhist practice in order to achieve a deep quality and a genuine joy of life through unconditional love and compassion for others. It is a method to overcome the fixation of your illusions, thus liberating your mind from selfish and disharmonious thoughts and feelings. This DVD is available in region 1 as well as in region 2 format.

Buy a Tibet patch!

09/25/2005 - There are many ways to show your support for a free Tibet and the oppressed Tibetan people. One of the things you can do is to buy a great Tibet patch. I sewed mine on my backpack!

Edit: Unfortunately, the link mentioned above is no longer working, but we have now our own Save Tibet patch!

Why did Nick Middleton pick the black stone?

09/18/2005 - Answer: because he hadn't been listening to what the Tibetan monk had told him to do during his journey.

In a brand new series of National Geographic Channel's Going to Extremes, Nick Middleton is sent on a pilgrimage by his publisher. In two episodes, Nick follows the ancient Silk Road through Nepal and Tibet. At the end of his journey, almost dying because of a severe shortage of oxygen, a black stone advises Nick... to do it all over again.

Edit: I've put this documenary on Youtube now!


Was Kwai Chang Caine enlightened?

09/16/2005 - Kung Fu. Many of you will remember this great, great series with David Carradine, playing the Shaolin priest Kwai Chang Caine. Wandering through the Wild West, he practised buddhism on a high level, helped by the lessons of his Chinese masters. If you temporarily have enough of buddhist theory, watch this series on DVD and teach yourself and your children!
