"Dharma River delights: a flaming stream of fascinating imagery - lyrically poetic and visually stunning. Don't miss this dazzling glimpse of a sacred world."
Daniel Goleman, author of Emotional Intelligence
This timeless journey along the celebrated rivers of Southeast Asia explores the universal ideals of wisdom, compassion, and inner peace at the very heart of these ancient Buddhist cultures. In dozens of temples, caves, and shrines, the Buddha image reverberates continually, yet it is never the same.
"Visiting the vanished civilizations, legendary sites and living wisdom traditions of Laos, Thailand and Burma, DHARMA RIVER powerfully conveys their continuing relevance for contemporary audiences." PBS
"Dharma River carries us along in the stream of spiritual blessings and delight. This visual feast transports us into the ancient yet timeless mystic East in a way that goes beyond place and time to touch the eternal."
Lama Surya Das, author of Awakening the Buddha Within
