Response to the question can we have good illusions

Recently a got an iMac. The iMac has video recording and editing software capabilities and so I thought I’d give it a try by responding to a comment by Anwesh on the benefits of understanding Buddhist Epistemology and Psychology.

 I’m interested to know your feelings on whether video is a good communications medium to use in future posts. In other words, do you want more videos?

If you are reading this from RSS you may need to watch the video from the blog.

    Hi Loden Jinpa,

    Thanks a lot for your video response to my question.
    It was great to see and hear you.

    Video is a very expressive form of communication and it definitely helps in understanding subtle points, which sometimes are difficult to understand in print. It also adds a personal touch.

    Technology is such a wonder.
    I consider myself fortunate to be able to listen to you and clear up my ignorant view, sitting thousands of miles away.
    It felt like I was sitting in that room and listening to you.

    I think for subtle and important points, video will be a nice way of communicating your teachings and responses.

    Thanks again for your generosity.

    Warm regards,
    Anwesh

    Hi Anwesh,

    I hope you can understand my accent :) and I apologize if I pronounced your name incorrectly.

    BTW I have some good news! I got hold on a good video recorder. So I think I will be doing more short videos and perhaps some longer ones too…we will see

    Hi Loden Jinpa,

    I understood every word you spoke. The accent was perfect. Also you did pronounce my name correctly.

    I look forward to more of your video posts.

    Warm regards,
    Anwesh
