Angel? Demon?

Went to watch Angels and Demons yesterday. I read the book quite sometime ago, so I don't really remember the details of the storyline. But I prefer this book over Da Vincci's Code as I think it is more interesting. Movie wise is okay, at least one can follow the storyline quite clearly. There were some adaptations in the movie that differ from the book which I've forgotten but only realised when I searched for the book's original plot (You find those yourself, hehe). On overall, it's a good movie with actions, plot, visual satisfaction (those architecture and arts pieces) and Tom Hanks. But probably having some history background on Renaissance and Reformation eras will aid in understanding the story better. My reflection after watching this movie: 善恶在一念间

Hello from Yorkshire England. I think your blog is both thought provoking and very interesting - beautifully put together. The 'conversation between science and faith' was enlightening indeed. Please tell me what the lovely music is that plays over your blog? I meditate and this music would make a perfect accompaniment.

Peace.

Kind regards,

Rarelesserspotted: Thanks for your compliment. The music is 'The Wisdom of Manjusri Bodhisattva' by Imee Ooi. Manjusri Bodhisattva is the goddess of wisdom in buddhist religion. 'Om Ara Pa Ca Na Ti' is the chant that you hear. More info about the singer can be found here --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imee_Ooi
There's another famous piece by her 'The chant of metta' that is always use for meditation.
