A DVD or film you bought or saw that inspired you.

I recently saw "Tibetan book of the Dead"which I must say was beautifully narrated by Leonard Cohen. Even though I am far from convinced with regard to the Deity issue I loved this movie.
It was extremely moving, comforting and informative, well worth a look.
Do you yourself a favour and check it out.

    I agree, this is a really excellent film (it's a two parter, BTW). I particularly liked the part where they're reading the Tibetan Book of the Dead to hospice patients waiting to die from AIDS. Nothing like death staring you in the face to focus your attention! But Leonard Cohen does a really excellent job of narrating, and the animated deity visualization at the beginning alone is worth the price!
