Comment by Donna Joy Ruhling on January 4, 2010 at 12:53pm: I recently finished reading Dan brown's latest novel, The Lost Symbol. I could not help but to see the many similarities- I was waiting for him to state, "Buddhists call it the Mystic Law".

Comment by Michelle Lee Cheu ee on June 19, 2009 at 12:24am: Hey guys, I know this award winning documentary's called "The cove". If you love dolphins and care about them, this is a great documentary to start with.

Comment by Michelle Lee Cheu ee on May 15, 2009 at 6:49am: Benjamin Button is a great movie!

Comment by D'sh on March 17, 2009 at 7:59am: Hiya doing all.

I got the book 'The Secret' before I started practicing this Buddhism.
I decided to read it again - and this time I read it through a buddhist eyes!
And I go like - yeah - just had chanting NMRK to that and you're ALL good to go!

Awesome stuff!

Keep loving!!!

Comment by Ms M on February 27, 2009 at 1:56pm: Hi Patrizia,
It was a superb film and there were some Buddhist undertones in it too interms of karmic retribution. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did :)

Comment by Patrizia on February 27, 2009 at 1:48pm: I am glad to have found this group. I am all about the Art no matter what. Marcy, I can't wait to watch Benjamin Button.

Comment by Ms M on February 15, 2009 at 10:24pm: Never thought I would say this, but "The Curious Case Benjamin Button" has knocked my all time fav film "Imitation of life" to #2. Great movie!

Comment by Ms M on February 5, 2009 at 10:07pm: Hi Claudia,

I love all the artists you mentioned especially Jill Scott and Eryah Badu. I thoroughly enjoyed both their concerts last Summer. Jill Scott was in South Africa not too long ago, I hope you had a chance to see her live.

As for Erykah, you have got to love her she is amazing! Let's not forget my girl India Arie, now that's a bad sistah!

Comment by D'sh on February 4, 2009 at 3:12am: Music...music music...

I adore D'Angelo's music. He is amzingly talented! I am awaiting his next album to be released this year... patienly waiting.

I am also a fan of Maxwell, Erika Badu, Jill Scott, Finley Quaye, Bob Marley, 340 ml, Sade, The O'Jays, Marvin Gaye,Meshel Nde'geocello, Macy Gray...

Comment by Ms M on January 19, 2009 at 8:50am: One more thing, for those who are interested, I have posted a video of the group of Fertile Ground in the video section of this site. Enjoy!
