John Bush’s “Journey Into Buddhism” trilogy — which includes the films Vajra Sky Over Tibet, Dharma River (which takes us to Laos, Thailand, and Burma), and Prajna Earth (Bali, Cambodia, and Java) — has been playing on PBS.
“Journey Into Buddhism” still, by John Bush
Tonight, the latter two will be showing on Boston’s WGBH; as Bush says, “This is a rare occasion, having a three-hour block of Buddhist film in primetime.” Indeed! Lion’s Roar is proud to be a sponsor of these airings of the films, and we encourage you to check your local listings so you don’t miss them.
Click through here to watch the trailers for both Vajra Sky Over Tibet and Prajna Earth, as well as an excerpt from Dharma River.

I have searched PBS under Journey Into Buddhism and Vajra Sky and did not find it? Did anyone find it showing in their area?
The films are downloaded through PBS satellite tomorrow to over 125 PBS stations who are then free to schedule them anytime as they choose. It will vary in each city and state. For example, here are the Colorado PBS statewide broadcasts in primetime next week: http://www.cpt12.org/tv_schedule/program_details…. http://www.cpt12.org/tv_schedule/program_details….
Check local listings – but know not every city is represented http://www.directpictures.com
These are fantastic!
I'm looking forward to these programs.
It is a lil odd that Japanese, Korean and Chinese traditions don't seem to be represented at all….. this needs to be a bigger series. : )
