See full film here: vodsite.journeyman.tv April 2008 Long thought of as a secluded paradise hidden deep in the Himalayas, and renowned for its pursuit of happiness over economic prosperity, Bhutan now struggles to accommodate the invasion of tourists, new media and western materialism in the twenty first century. As monks play with condoms, clowns offer advice on AIDS and farmers feed cannabis to pigs, we hear the thoughts of Government officials, Meditation monks, tourists and ordinary Bhutanese themselves, as they face up to the challenge to the underlying spiritualism of this mystical country and its rapidly changing identity in an internet shrunk world.

l like hearing deconversion stories. Deconversion, as I've noted, is as natural as conversion. Here's a tale that came to me in an email message. Jesse was pleased to let me share it with others.

These questions and more are commonly asked by OUR readers and subscribers, so if you've ever wondered the same thing, let's take a closer look below: Is God and the afterlife synonymous... or are they different things altogether? It's an interesting question. While 20 years of psychic research HAS taught me that most mediums DO believe in god, I've also found that what they actually believe in varies quite a bit from person to person. And while most certainly believe in a higher power or a universal energy that organizes all things, how that higher power is ...
