Video # 1 from the first set.
MVD is releasing a series of DVDs from the Dalai Lama. The first set comes out on August 23 and includes four titles; A Pratical Way Of Directing Love And Compassion, Contentment, Joy And Living Well, Interdependence, Interconnectedness And The Nature Of Reality and Facing Death And Dying Well.

The titles of the films are sort of self-explanatory but I suspect that his holiness goes into a tad more detail. Most of the DVDs are around three hours long or thereabout. The tapes are in a mix of English and Tibetan (with subtitles obviously).

Years ago I saw the Dalai Lama speak (despite a poor sound system) and the idea that compassion was our greatest human attribute and that we had a responsibility to the people around us made the biggest impression on me. Of course, I still got into a fight with my then-girlfriend right after his speech. It took awhile for it to all sink in with me as I am not terribly bright.

But even that is a lesson that even the thickest person can take such messages to heart and these DVDs are something any person of conscience, any person, open to other views should check out.

These four are the first in a series for more information head to MVD Entertainment.
