Recenzii

"Photographer's Mission of Calm: A compelling new book on photography by a reclusive Buddhist, an author and photographer known as just Simhananda, explores images of Buddha around the world and throughout time. The author traveled the globe and searched for The Buddha, whose image and likeness is found throughout the world in thousands of statues and paintings. No matter what your religious or spiritual views are, knowledge of Buddhism can help to elevate the mind to a state of healing and comfort. ...with messages of love, peace and enlightenment, the photographs of the Buddha and accompanying sayings by Dadi Darshan Dharma invite curiosity and engender soulful introspection." -- Alysha Sideman, ImagingInfo, September 2007.
"The photography of Simhananda - a mysterious, reclusive avid world traveler - captures the spiritual essence of the Buddha like perhaps no book ever has. Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Khadromas and the Way of the Pilgrim is a 'universal' book; a work of art designed for people of all levels of spirtual understanding, all religions, and all who enjoy beautiful photographs." -- The Buddhist Channel, September 2007.
"It is a tool which opens the door to a journey of awareness, love and peace. In a world mired in turbelence, war, and fear, the book is an oasis which has arrived at the ideal time." -- American Buddhist Net, September 2007.
"Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Khadromas and the Way of the Pilgrim ... is a stunning photographic journey which reveals the changing face of Buddhism, with inspirational, spiritually uplifting (and sometimes humorous) sayings accompanying each photograph." -- TravelVideo.Net, September 2007.
"Buddhas, Bodhisattvas, Khadromas and the Way of the Pilgrim is a beautiful book. from the moment I picked it up I was spellbound by the amazing photography of Buddha. ... In the Way of the Pilgrim these photos capture the creativity and spiritual understanding that everyone will enjoy. While Simhananda prefers to remain in the shadows, he photography speaks clearly of the passion and heart of this reclusive avid world traveler. In this wonderful book he steps aside to allow the photos to speak for themselves and draw the readers in to discovery the underlying messages of love, peace and enlightenment." -- Melody Schubert, USA Travel Magazine, October 2007.
