Thank you, Senthil.

Ah, you’ve said it wonderfully. The Path is about attainment and what we can get for ourselves, while liberation is beyond that self-centered movement.

And by the way, thank you for your continued involvement in the comments. It is great to have you here.

It’s beautiful the way you expressed it. The spiritual path is about trying to attain the truth, trying to seek it, trying to see it and it finally ends when we realize there is nothing to grasp or seek. It’s always here.

You are so simple in your expression, and you have a way with words. Really appreciate it.

Beautiful words. At first, we don’t know there is a simpler way, and when we do, we chase the complexities of spirituality and beliefs. When we stop chasing, there it is!

The US $ is worth slightly more than the Canadian. This gives budget films an advantage shooting here. Also subsidies and tax advantages, etc. The advantage is less these days, but still there. Some big budget things too – always amusing to see US post boxes on a Vancouver street for a shoot. (ours are red) And the ever present sea of trucks.

Several large studios and experienced crews have developed here since the ’70′s. They call us Hollywood North. Third largest for features in N America, behind LA and NY. 2nd in TV.

These days, much of the obvious action is Olympic. Saw a Russian crew interviewing team members in front of the totems in Stanley Park today. And had to go around another interview underway earlier. And some very fancy dual camera shoot by the water.

Thank you, Uzma.

It is a subtle – or even ‘invisible’ – difference when one is numb. But the difference is obvious as you move delicately. Maybe sensitive is a good word for that movement…

Nice to see you again, Uzma. I hope you’ve been well.

Thank you very much, iamasimpelman.

It certainly has been awhile… It is always wonderful to hear from you, and I hope you’ve been well.

The Sakura have not quite hit here in Tokyo…not yet. But I’ll be out there taking pictures – along with everyone else – same as last year.

I’ll make it to Vancouver someday. (I’ve also heard it is a great place for American filmmakers to shoot. It saves quite a bit of money. Don’t know if that is true, though.)

Thanks takuin. Was not at your side for a long time. I looked in at the right time and so I got the answer I already know but did not answer myself in words but in daily doing it, so the circle ist closed. Tanks again.
