Technology and Buddism
I've been following the very good TEDBlog's coverage of TEDGlobal 2007 this week. Well worth reading. Powerful information.
A few days TEDBlog posted an earlier video of Bob Thurman's talk (taken on 12/06) about how an all connected world, delivered by technology means that we can know anything at anytime. From TEDBlog:
"And this mass enlightenment, says Thurman, is our first step toward becoming Buddha. When we can know everything, we can see how everything is interconnected -- and we can begin to feel compassion for every living being."
Wow.
Here's the video. Hope you like it as much as I did.
This talk reminded me so much of the talks by Alan Watts, the great Zen Buddhism scholar. You may wanna Google him and download free samples of his audio talks from his website www.alanwatts.com and also checkout the Alan Watts Podcast.

I really enjoyed this video and your blog in general. I have been trying to learn more about Buddhism just for personal enrichment if nothing else. Thanks for the great blog and keep up the great work!
