Bringing the Ancient and Modern together
Review by Dorsey on 02/13/22 review stating Bringing the Ancient and Modern together
Not an in-depth study of Buddhism, but rather an invitation to enter into its world briefly through images of its monuments, comments on its history, and through following present day Buddhists in their search for enlightenment and peace. I felt refreshed after watching this program.

"Prajna Earth is a visual pilgrimage of the heart of stunning intimacy and beauty." - Krishna Das ("Chantmaster of American Yoga", NY Times)

"Beautifully shot footage, Sharon Stone's melodious narration, and background chanting imbue this soothing, meditative program." - Booklist

"Prajna Earth is a film I will come back to time and again.  Like the spiritual wonders it so beautifully brings alive, Prajna Earth takes us on a journey into our own potential.  It is a pleasure at every level." - Mark Epstein, MD, author of Open to Desire

"Prajna Earth is no ordinary travelogue.  It is a serene cinematic pilgrimage pervaded by a quiet energy.  The gentle rhythm of overland travel is replicated in the deliberately languorous pace, which allows you to be both steeped in the richness of the landscape and to absorb the significance of the symbolism." - Tim McHenry, Director of Programming, Rubin Museum of Art, New York
