Buddhist Prayer for Animal Liberation

Written and directed by Oliver Benjamin & Jon Grode in 2002

Douglas and Wilson have gone to Thailand to pursue their dreams. Wilson is seeking enlightenment, but Douglas has darker ambitions. One of   more...them will find redemption, but who? Things are not always what they seem at the Nice Illusion Rasta Cafe in Chiang Mai. Wake up and smell the karma.

A short film about two different types of tourist in Thailand: a drugged- out sleazeball and a preachy amateur Buddhist, both trying to find redemption in this very libertine country, where nothing is what it seems and everything is possible.

The result: Nice Illusion. A rushed two week shoot and continual casting changes resulted in a pretty enjoyable 25-minute flick. It's a great little window into what certain lost souls are doing in strange, semi-lawless places around the world.

It also offers a great slice-of-life of Chiang Mai, showcasing a variety of the natural surroundings, markets and cultural aspects of the area.

These are photos of the dismantling ceremony for a Tibetan Buddhist sand mandala. The mandala was made over several days by one monk, with some help from others (I was fortunate enough to participate   more...briefly). Each color is layed onto the image by tapping colored sand out of a funnel a few grains at a time.

This is a briefly narrated version of the finished mandala and dismantling.  less

I examine faith, what constitutes it and what doesn't.

A ride with my Club to my favorite place in Korea at my favorite time of year. Haeinsa Temple in Autumn. It is absolutely gorgeous this time of year, as all the leaves have changed colors, but have   more...not yet fallen to the ground. My leg still isn't strong enough yet to take the 1.5km up the mountain to the temple and back. So, there are no shots of the actual temple.. but it is gorgeous there. That gives me an excuse to go back in the spring. Haeinsa Temple is one of the most important Buddhist temples in the world.  less
