Review: Karnamrita stirs the soul

Date: 11/07/2009

Ever wake up smiling? I went to see Dasi Karnamrita lead kirtan at the Ashtanga Yoga Studio and Ganesh Temple in New York City last night. In a word, the evening was magical . I can't quite put my finger on it, but there was something about the show that made it seem less like a performance and more like a shared prayer. Maybe it was the studio itself, which houses an authentic South ...

Michael Jackson Autopsy Pictures: Innocent Curiosity Or Ghoulish Obsession?

Date: 10/29/2009

I asked it before when people were searching for David Carradine's hanging photos . What makes people so crazy to see celebrities' post-mortem moments? Now rumor is spreading that Michael Jackson's autopsy photos are about to be leaked, and the internet is afire with the news. So, is it innocent curiosity, or... ...are people really sickos? Maybe there's a third option. Maybe, when s ...

My Halloween Video: I Miss You Michael Jackson!

Date: 10/30/2009

Halloween is an appropriate time to face one's fears. I have so many of them that I decided to do a fun video and entertain you with a freak show rather than candidly discuss all the things I'm afraid of. You already know about them. So, in the spirit of "The 12 (Bipolar) Days of Christmas," here's one that will hopefully make you crack a smile before the goblins get you. To view m ...

What Is It? 'This Is It'

Date: 10/29/2009

I had the chance to see "This is It" in Los Angeles this week. And I'm still trying to figure out how I feel about it. It seems like just a little while ago that I was watching news stories of Michael Jackson's passing and watching videos that he'd made long ago. His death had been sudden and shocking, followed by a remembrance process that was celebrative and winsome. But seeing a new film, with ...

This is It

Date: 10/28/2009

"This is It" is here to rescue us from the tabloids and remind us what true star power looks like. There are moments of aching sadness as we get a behind-the-scenes look at the concert tour that never happened, but it is the very intimacy of the preparation process that makes the film so enthralling. Jackson comes across as the consummate professional, always polite and appreciative but with a s ...

Date: 10/30/2009

Marriage, the death of a parent, the birth of a child: we here at Beliefnet pride ourselves on knowing what brings people back to a faith they've long ignored or to discover one they never had. But Jon Gosselin has a new one on us. The New York Post is reporting that the onetime star of "Jon and Kate Plus Eight" has been meeting with Michael Jackson's erstwhile spiritual counselor (and a Beli ...

A Kiss Halloween Contemplation! How Dressing Up as Paul Stanley Might Provide Access to Buddha Nature

Date: 10/30/2009

I'm dressing up as Paul Stanley this Halloween. My six year old son Eli's going as Gene Simmons , and my wife, Amy, as Peter Criss . Our nine year old daughter Lily is going as Hermione Granger . As much as we pleaded, she wasn't interested in dressing as Ace Frehley . Anyway, I've got myself convinced that Halloween festivities are an access point to Buddha Nature. Admittedly, I don't ...

Fearless Fridays: Death

Date: 10/30/2009

Aloha, I get so many e-mails from people who are afraid of death or who are dealing with the death of a loved one. Recently, my father died and I am still dealing with the aftermath of his departure. When someone has a close family member die, people are often unsure of what to say or do. Death is part of this journey we call life. Life is, after al,l a fatal disease; no one gets out of here aliv ...
