At dawn silence is broken by the steady peal of a wake-up bell that grows increasingly louder. Morning has begun for the monks of this Buddhist temple. Soon, the tranquility within these walls will give way to the sounds of urban living, as one monk makes his way through the city streets and beyond. He is on a journey that will bring him into contact with the many men and women around the world drawn to the Buddhist way of living. In this quietly engaging film, a Buddhist monk imparts the wisdom he has gained over the years through interviews and seminars with-among others-a lone reporter, a young couple seeking spiritual guidance, and a room full of inquiring journalists. As the monk addresses his audiences, he emphasizes, above all, balance. Between these teaching sessions, Buddhist Life captures moments of silent contemplation-from businessmen meditating in the middle of their work day to disciples taking part in an evening meal to the solitary monk engaged in the simple act of raking-moments that communicate the calming effect of balance.
