The Hidden Story of Jesus

Theologian Dr Robert Beckford investigates amazing parallels to the Christ story in other faiths, some of them predating Christianity by thousands of years. The Hindu god, Krishna, was conceived by a virgin and his birth was attended by angels, wise men and shepherds. Buddha was also the result of a miraculous birth and visited by wise men bearing gifts. Beckford attempts to unravel the mystery of why there are so many versions of the Christ story across the world and asks which is the real one.

Maurice Béjart, January 1, 1927 - November 22, 2007

Maurice Béjart était un grand ami de mon oncle et ma tante. Je l'ai rencontré chez mon oncle en 1974, à l'époque où il était fraichement converti au Soufisme. Je fus fortement impressionnée par sa personnalité, bien qu'elle irritait beaucoup ma tante.

Repose en paix, Maurice.



Maurice Béjart was a close friend of my uncle and aunt. I met him at my uncle's home in 1974, at the time he had newly converted to Sufism. His personality impressed me enormously, even though it annoyed my aunt to a great degree.

Rest in peace, Maurice.




































Bob Thurman and Deepak Chopra - Buddhism and Vedanta

Received from a dear MySpace friend:

"In contrasting Buddhism and Vedanta (Hindu philosophy), Bob Thurman, a former Buddhist monk and Deepak Chopra find there are more comparisons than differences, and both agree that, more and more, scientists are showing that quantum physics and spirituality (awareness, consciousness, the soul) are the nature of true reality. A must-see."

From "The Real News" - Interview with Dr. David Suzuki

"The award-winning environmentalist and broadcaster speaks of climate change as a slow motion catastrophe.

"He states that the media has to take responsibility for the fact that there is a notion that the issue of climate change is still controversial, even though the vast majority of climatologists in the world say something must be done."
