In the Buddha's footsteps.  A pilgrimage to Northern India, the land where the Buddha lived and taught, is represented in this short documentary. Although pilgrimage is not easy, pilgrims speak candidly about their experiences walking with friends on the path, meditating at the sacred sites and reading about the Buddha's extraordinary life and qualities. Organized and sponsored by the non profit Pariyatti, the tour lasts 21 days and continues to be offered to old students of Vipassana as taught by S.N. Goenka several times per year.

Teach us pāli by the river. This is the story of a group of people who took two weeks to study Pali, the ancient language spoken by the Buddha.

A Sangha Dana (the formal offering of food to Buddhist monks) at the Fiberglass Pagoda Factory in Yangon, Burma. 

At this factory, the team is building pagodas out of fiberglass, instead of bricks or stone. This is just a small video taken out of footage I am collecting for a larger documentary about the innovative fiberglass counterpart to the ancient Burmese design. Jim Kahn is the American born building project manager leading the effort and has spent years studying and perfecting this new design based on ancient Burmese drawings with his amazing Burmese team. More to come.

Seeds of Awareness. Shot for the California Vipassana Center. A short film illustrating the immense benefits for children and teenagers who learn to meditate by observing their incoming and outgoing breath.
