Two Great Sites

by Danny Fisher

I discovered two great sites today that you ought to know about if you don’t already. The first is Open Source Buddhism, which is dedicated to “audio-visualizing Buddhism and Comparative Religion.” The brainchild of the Rev. Dr. James Kenneth Powell II (who earned his Ph.D. in Buddhist Studies from the prestigious program at the University of Wisconsin-Madison), Open Source Buddhism features lots of multimedia materials about specific topics of interest, ranging from Buddhist practice in various parts of the world to “Buddhism in Advertising.”

The other, which I discovered through a comment at this blog, is Buddhist Art News. The site “gathers and presents news items, reviews, resources, and sites related to Buddhist art, archaeology, architecture, music, film, dance, and many other pertinent topics.” And, boy, it seems like they never miss a trick. It’s now on my short list of resources for the blog. Don’t miss it.
