Recalling A Buddha: Memories of the Sixteenth Karmapa (Movie, 2009)

This is a movie about the life and death of an awakened being, the Sixteenth Karmapa, who was the leader of one of Tibetan Buddhism's four major schools of spiritual teachings: the Kagyu lineage. How he lived and how he died gives us the example of an awakened being, a person with a noble heart.

It is a magnificent presentation of the life of His Holiness the 16th Karmapa. This is a wonderful production filled with amazing photographs and interviews of eminent meditation masters from across the Tibetan pantheon.

It is a beautifully presented story of an incredible and inspiring person. And this is the first time I felt so close to His Holiness.
