This post was inspired by and includes the words of my friend Tony Hogan, The Acoustic Guitarist. Men have argued about the nature of God and life after death since the beginning of time. The next time someone asks you if you believe in life after death please consider this:
On June 24, Iranian Superstar Andy Madadian went into an LA recording studio with Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora and American record producers Don Was and John Shanks to record a musical message of worldwide solidarity with the people of Iran. This version of the old Ben E. King classic is not for sale - it was not meant to be on the Billboard charts or even manufactured as a CD…..it’s intended to be downloaded and shared by the Iranian people…to give voice to the sentiment that all people of the world stand together….the handwritten Farsi sign in the video translates to “we are one”. If you know someone in Iran - or someone who knows someone in Iran - please share the video after the jump.
As I view and read what’s happening in Iran my heart sinks to the bottom of my feet. Iran has around 21 million internet users from a population of 70 million people. Persian bloggers are frequent participants on online social media sites, and are well represented on sites such as FriendFeed.
Iran has blocked access to more than five million Internet sites, including Facebook and YouTube as part of a crackdown on content perceived to be immoral and anti-social.
The Buddha, Siddhāttha Gotama civilized half the world with his teaching. These are a collection of his wise quotes. It doesn’t matter which faith you follow or if don’t particularly consider yourself a religious person, you will find truth in his words. The video is after the jump.
