Are there any movies about the life of Siddhartha Gautama (aka, “The Buddha”)?

Movies 7 Comments »

eroticohio asked:


There are several movies about the life of Jesus, but I don’t know of any about the life of the Siddh?rtha (except for a documentary). Perhaps there is a foreign film I have overlooked? India has a major film production industry (”Bollywood”), so it seems odd to me that there wouldn’t be some dramatic feature film portraying the Buddha’s life.

By the way, I think the Buddha’s story could appeal to a large Western audience. He was the son of a king and as a child was raised in a life of total luxury. (For example, he several palaces and had innumerable beautiful women attending to his every need.) He married a beautiful girl and they had a son together. But at age 29 he kissed his wife and kid goodbye then wandered off into the forest to seek enlightenment. It seems to me that this has the basic elements for a great dramatic story.

What is a hotel near the NRT airport in Tokyo, Japan?

Japan 7 Comments »

Madi asked:


What are some hotels within 10 minutes of the NRT airport(airport code) in Tokyo, Japan? I’m staying in Japan for a week and I need a nice hotel to stay in. Money is no problem. I want some hotel suggestions with good service, dining, swimming, and some other luxuries. It would be nice if the hotel also had a spa. I would also like to make sure the hotel is within 30 minutes of the airport because I will be traveling and exploring the city during the day.

Jon B asked:


Im planning a trip to Mexico next year and I really don’t want to pay $250 + for a hotel room when Im only 24 and really dont need that type of luxury. Ive researched a few of them online but I wanted some opinions if anyone has stayed in one before and how safe it is?

In doing all of the below and more, have we erased that special time of life known as childhood?

Psychology 6 Comments »

clinton j asked:


In 1982 Neil Postman claimed that we are losing our stage of childhood by the lives we are constructing for our children. For example, many children need appointment books to track daily/weekly activities they are involved in. Also, tv, cable, and internet has exposed children to ‘adult’ topics and forced them into the adult world. In the media, children are portrayed as little adults, and in many cases portrayed as smarter that adults (I call it the “the Home alone” phenomenon). As far as popular culture, children have designer cloths, equipment, accessories, and luxury items, etc.

WW3 (or 4): Luxury that will be lost by you to preserve what makes it possible?

Politics 6 Comments »

egoist_capitalist asked:


It seems likely that we’re on the front of a decade-long world-war. Over the recent decade, fantastic luxury is commonplace: 3-car garage (not big enough to hold all of the cars), cell-phones, high-speed always-on network connected PCs, gigantic TVs, so much food that most of us are way too fat… You get the idea.

If a world war really breaks out, and I think it has, what luxuries [if any] may be lost?
Mr. Spin: France has already caved - it’s demographically doomed to be out-bread.

Mikew: Please clarify; how did this happen?

Why does my wife toy with my emotions? She wants a divorce?

Marriage & Divorce 11 Comments »

Fred Y asked:


I’ve been married for only 5 months. Several days ago, my wife told me she wanted a divorce. She told me she is still very much in love with me, but marriage life is not for her. I asked her is there is another man, she said no, there is nobody else, and no, she’s not a lesbian, she just needs her space.
Before we started dating, she asked me to buy her lots expensive stuff, jewelries, clothes, shoes, designer handbags, expensive make ups, luxury trips, etc. I didn’t doubt her intention, I bought everything she asked me to, because I love her with all my heart. She has suffered from anxiety attack, (many many of them), depression, and she is very addicted to food. She’s overweight, but I have accepted her for who she is. I have been cheated on and lied to by many women in my past, so when I met her, her honesty touched my heart. I gave her 110%, and I devoted to her completely. Since I traveled a lot, I have many many chances to cheat on her, but I didn’t and I had zero intentions to.
But now, after only 5 months, she wants out. She said she’s frustrated because I don’t show emotions anymore, I don’t spoil her as much as I used to. Well, how do I know what she wants me to buy. I cooked her dinner (spent whole afternoon in the kitchen), and when she came back from work, all she could say is “I am tired, don’t feel like eating.” (then got up in the middle of the night snack on junk food) She let me sleep in the other room for 2 weeks straight, and walked in front of me naked, got me hot and bothered, and then told me I better go jerk off in the shower since that is what I am going to do anyway. Why does she toy with my emotions like this? What’s going on here?

what coatings on windows will help:luxury home has has high air conditioning costs and sun bleaches floor?

Maintenance & Repairs 2 Comments »

Grasshopper asked:


Living room 4 double rows of windows facing east and two facing north [each has 2 windows one above the other], metal frames,85″ high 45″ wide; dining room has 4 single window rows facing east. We have very high energy bills because of air conditioning and the sun bleaches the wooden windows. We do not want to replace the windows but we would consider a coating or even motorized storm windows that we could leave down during the day or half=way down.
