    This lively conversation between Deepak Chopra and Robert Thurman explores the points of contact and of conflict between Vedanta and Buddhism -- India's two great philosophic traditions. Taped in 1999 at New York's Tibet House, before an audience of religious and spiritual leaders, the dialogue encompasses everything from the Rishis' teachings about Brahman to the speakers' personal experiences of each tradition. Chopra, a physician and bestselling author, outlines the teachings upon which Vedanta rests; Thurman, Professor of Religion at Columbia University and an associate of the 14th Dalai Lama, offers the Buddhist counterpoint. A historic and enlightening event, ideal for students, educators, and devotees of Eastern philosophies. ~ Sarah Welsh, All Movie Guide All Movie Guide

    October 31, 2004: An excellant program if you want to learn more about enlightenment, the levels and meaning of Buddhism. I watched this video to gain a clearer explaination of what I am learning in my collage class about eastern religions. Whether you are taking class or just want to further your knowledge, this is an excellant tool. One of the things you will learn is how western religions have taken the teachings of Buddhism and Hinduism and incorporated them into Judism, Chistinanty and Islam. Dispite the perceived differances in religious practice, you will find how much alike they all are and how everyone is seeking the same thing, just under differant names.
