For sale in U.S. and Canada only-- Discover the history behind the philosophy that has led millions of followers on a quest for spiritual enlightenment. Through the epic story of Siddhartha Gotama, learn why Buddhists believe the key to "Nirvana" lies within themselves, accessible through thoughtful meditation and prayer. From its origins in central Asia, see how different Asian cultures have adapted the teachings of Buddha over time -- from the Mahayana Buddhists of China and Korea to the Dalai Lama and the Buddhists of Tibet. Narrated by Academy Award winner Ben Kingsley. Part of the Religions of the World Video Series. Includes a Teacher's Guide.

 

"Thought-provoking and highly recommended for most school collections as well as general religion collections in public libraries." - Video Librarian

"Each of these informative and interesting productions factually, and without judgment or bias, explicates the history, founding leader(s) and cultural influences of these religions…While intended for high school and college students, teacher explication and classroom discussion before and after viewing will make these videos accessible to middle/junior high school students." - School Library Journal

"This series provides an excellent introduction to the major world religions…Recommended."- Library Media Connection (Feb 2004)
