[sfoto100]

Hi CSers,

I would like to share with you the works of Matthieu Ricard. I met him in 1995 in Nepal and he help to translate some Buddhist teachings for me.

You can go to his website and look at his photographs.

oh.. i didn't know he appeared on TV before..

i am quite interested in one of his books, The Quantum and the Lotus.. which is about Science and Buddhism (he forsake his scientific career and became a Buddhist monk).. but i guess i will have a hard time understanding it... haha...
