Adam West Posted April 7, 2009 Yeah, I've seen it. It's really quite good. Gives a good glimpse into the lives of genuine hermits. I wrote to the producer-director-commentator to ask him if he would teach me the traditional method of meditative cultivation the hermits speak of and recommend that apparently generates heat when practiced correctly, but unfortunately he didn't write back . Definitely worth a look! In kind regards, Adam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
evZENy Posted June 5, 2009 (edited) http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=59...mp;client=opera I am watching it right now (half the way through). Starts with the statement, that this is a hermits' way of life in China for more than 5000 years. But obviusly because of the inclination of the author, it talks about Buddhists. Interesting people for sure. Reminds me of the saying, "it's not as easy to be a Buddha in the village market as in the forest". Obviously only in the forest not quite easy either. P.S. Enjoyed the silver watch and the soda bottle. It's hard to hide from civilization nowadays.... Edited June 5, 2009 by evZENy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
