Description

Come and join our weekly journey on Buddhism and Eastern Religion hosted by filmmaker Yujiro Seki. Carving the Divine TV Podcast is a series of Q&A sessions with Buddhist scholars and practitioners. These Q&A sessions explore the basic concepts and history of Buddhism. The show may not turn you into a self-actualized spiritual guru but it will open the door into this beautiful, profound spiritual tradition. We will start our journey from India and make our way to Japan, covering a wide range of topics in an easy-to-digest style! Each show is between 10 - 30 minutes long. On top of that, we will give you special episodes on Japanese Buddhist sculptures (known as Butsuzo) and Buddhist practioners' episodes. Yes! This series is made to be a supplemental material for the up-and-coming documentary film "Carving the Divine - Buddhist Sculptors of Japan" but you can take your new knowledge with you anywhere in the world to enhance the quality of your life!
