that's your interpretation of religion. what connects all religions though is the creation of a way to find meaning in life. To create a healthy environment for all. That's what is in the message of many of the prophets. it is those preachers that find this essence of truth and healthy society, and changed the world around in this way who have made religion worthwile. i think for instance about tenzin gyatso, the fourteenth dalai lama talking about the way each religion can be of benefit.

There is very little in this lecture that isBuddhist teachings, e.g. no self. Everthingelse is his creativity. One importnat pointto remember, Buddhism does NOT talk aboutthe outside world (multiverses, etc.). According to Buddhism "you" are the universe.When you understand "you", you understandthe universe/multiverse.

This was a FANTASTIC lecture, one of the BEST I've heard on Buddhism in my life. In addition the monumental work he has done and still doing for the cause of sharing the "KNOWLEDGE" with the rest of the world,using modern technology of the 21st century is the continuation of what the Buddha himself started more than 25000 years ago with 60 of His deciples who were asked to " go far and wide and share this knowledge out of compassion for the benefit of many beings in the world". - Bandula.

Thank you for discussing these points and going a little farther into the topics. I especially like the approach of taking a historical view and showing it's influence on others.

Buddhism is a way of life, not a religion. It is a awakening of the mind, a re-awakening. Religion was invented to control people, to form invisible borders between people of the same blood. You my friend, are an unfortunate victim of Religion. I pity you.
