Favourite Documentary – The Privileged Planet

Amazon.com: The Privileged Planet: John Rhys-Davies, Lad Allen: Movies & TV.

 

This is a great documentary which feeds into the Intelligent Design theory.  It explores how many factors affected our world becoming what it is and allowing us to be here.  Then, amazingly, it shows that not only is this world perfect for complex life, but it is also perfect for allowing us to understand natural law.  And this is supposed to have happened by chance?

I found it fascinating.

Favourite Documentary – The Big Silence

This documentary follows as Abbot Christopher Jamison introduces 5 ordinary people to silent meditation.  The result is fascinating.  Every time I watch this series, I am overwhelmed by a desire to go for a guided silent meditation retreat.  And I have tried to introduce more silence into my life, although I have found this to be very challenging.

Have you tried incorporating silent prayer into your daily life?  What have you learned?
