Era of Dance
From the foothills of the Himalaya in Nepal to Bodh Gaya in India, where the Buddha attained enlightenment, this documentary takes us on a vivid journey. We trace the path of compassion in action, as practiced by Karuna-Shechen, a non-profit co-founded by Buddhist monk Matthieu Ricard, and Tibetan Buddhist Master Shechen Rabjam Rinpoche. As we meet several women who share their stories of lives transformed through the organization's assistance, we discover how compassionate aid must intertwine with wisdom, which in Matthieu's view, means supporting women's empowerment and advocating voluntary simplicity. —Buddhist Tzu Chi Foundation
