When I go to air, I breathe
When I go to water, I drink
When I go to earth, I die

When I am there, I try to get here
When I realize, I am reborn

So everything is more beautiful
than everything else
And everything I'm telling you
I'm telling myself

She's been my guru for maybe 15 years now - though she doesn't know it - yet*. This documentary, with the lovely Bill Moyers , will tell you much about her, AND, much about Buddhism. But remember, we don't proselytize. Well, in general we don't, but me, I'm a radical Buddhist . So there. Here's the doc ... sorry about the poor video quality, but the sound is good.
