Buddhist Hip Hop Artist - A Cultivator

It's been a little while since I last blogged as I'm busy setting up a new business Low Cost Business Videos and a Low Cost Business Videos Blog and putting into practice what I have learnt whilst helping my mate Den build the Buddha's Face website. He recently sent me an email from a Buddhist Hip Hop artist called the A Cultivator. He is using his music and lyrics to help spread Buddhism in America and through the web to the world. Apparently he is a Raiders fan (being a Brit I don't quite get the importance but its probably like being a Man Utd Fan! -never mind we all have our crosses to bear - we ourselves must walk the path). Just listening to his track It's Not Easy and he is rather good -actually very good.

Respect to the A Cultivator from the Buddha's Face - long may his Buddhist raps reach out and move people's hearts and minds. In fact he's so good I'm listening again.

You can catch the A Cultivator Buddhist Hip Hop artist over at the Skillful Methods Website.

The Last Words of the Buddha -Wordle

Just over 2,500 years ago when the Buddha lay dying surrounded by his closest monks his last words were a call to action to his followers to remember and spread his message and it wasn't him that needed to be worshipped.There are no answers except the ones that you learn for yourselves but there are a few rules which if you follow you will have a better and more insightful life. Have a nice day.

“Do not say we have no master now. The message I have preached will be your master when I have gone. Listen, I beseech you: ALL CREATIONS ARE IMPERMANENT; work tirelessly for your liberation.”

The Buddha and Jesus - Sermon on the Mount by Wordle

In one of my previous blog entries I used the brilliant word visualisation tool Wordle to bring to life visually the top 50 quotes from the Buddha and I though whilst I was in Wordle mode to have a look at one of the great speeches given by Jesus - the Sermon on the Mount - some historians have speculated that Jesus may have been influenced by the teachings of the Buddha particularly the one of universal love - I like to think so anyway.

So here it is Jesus meditating like the Buddha and the Sermon wordeled !

Water in Buddhist Garden Design

At the Buddha's Face we have written a lot about Buddhist garden design - but one area we haven't written much about is the use of water in Buddhist garden design. A water feature or pond can be a stunning centerpiece of any garden and by including a Buddha statue can become a focal point and an aid to a serene and contemplative refection. Alongside the aesthetic is the ability of water to attract wildlife , and a garden's most useful friend the terminator of insects - the frog. In a new article over on our Buddhism 101 project we discuss the use and features associated with water Buddha gardens.

Wordle - Top 50 Buddha Quotes

At the Buddha’s face we love Wordle cloud pictures. This nifty website allows you to visualise words and represent them as a picture. I though it would be interesting to put the Buddha’s Top 50 quotes into the programme to see what it produced.
