Movie Reviews of Discovering Buddhism
Movie Review: Only One Presence matters: YOU
Summary: 5 Stars
How does one talk about the myriad of thought this DVD provides?
I at first was interested in how the Hollywood people presented themselves and what the knowledge was they were to impart.
Soon, as I realized the scope of the teachings was so encompassing nothing but that mattered.
Soon, as each chapter was complete, nothing mattered other than what was the next thought to absorb.
Coming from the Soto Zen discipline, that mattered not, as each chapter of thought was presented.
I'm attempting to impart the point that 'all that other stuff' matters not, once one is absorbed by the teachings.
This is an astounding assemblage of one view of Buddhism, as It encompances and explains both sides (now).
Don't let my flawed view of reality distract you. This DVD is well worth the price.
If you want to learn what Buddhism encompasses, don't hesitate.
Movie Review: Simply AMAZING teaching!
Summary: 5 Stars
After reading all the great reviews on this DVD, i decided to get one for myself in Jan 08. Wow, these DVDs are really amazing. I have watched it for more than 4 times and it is really a pleasure to watch these DVDs again and again. The teachings are fabulous, especially topics like "Mind and its potentials", "Presenting the Path", "How to Meditate", "All about Karma", "Wisdom of Emptiness", etc.
You don't require any knowledge on Buddhism to appreciate these DVDs, cos every teachings is explained in the simplest form and logical way. The topic "Mind" is simply impressive and it really "open" your mind to understand its potential. I can't really speak high enough on these DVDs, it is really a "Must Have".
Look no futher, I STRONGLY recommend these DVDs to anyone who seek for Buddhism teaching, cultivate inner peace, understanding of life and its meaning, etc.

Movie Review: Fantastic Overview of Entire Path to Enlightenment
Summary: 5 Stars
I first watched these DVD's during my exploration of Tibetan Buddhism a few years ago and immediately became hooked by the wonderful presentaion and summary of the key points of Tibetan Buddhism practice.
I found the DVD's extremely useful in outlining the entire scope of the Buddhist path from the first chapter on the Mind right through to the Introduction to Tantra. I personally really enjoyed seeing Lama Yeshe explain Tantra in that chapter making it sound so wonderful and relevant to helping overcome all our problems and it inspired me to do further study and to read more on all these topics to try and gain a deeper understanding.
Even now I still find it a joy to return to the DVD's to rewatch them again with some new insights obtained each time.
Movie Review: Marvelous Refresher Course
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned this 2 disc DVD set for several years. Because I have been traveling a lot, I found it difficult to find qualified Buddhist teachers. This series allows me to always have great teachers to take with me. Whether I was snow bound in Michigan or in a remote area in New Mexico, I could pop one of the DVD's into my laptop and hear a remarkable teaching. I have watched each episode many times and I still learn something new. Also, the quality of the production is very high. This DVD set has been invaluable to me as a constant resource of one of the most profound subjects.Movie Review: GREAT INTRODUCTION TO THIS COMPLEX SUBJECT
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD is a great place to start if you are curious about Tibetan Buddhism. The teachings are clear and easy to understand. The presentation of the topics is very informative. As a result of watching this, I have embarked on the Discovering Buddhism at Home series of 14 modules on different topics prepared by FPMT. This distance program allows those who do not have access to a Tibetan Buddhist center, study this topic using audio teachings, readings and excellent email support by qualified teachers.
