His Holiness the Dalai Lama will release a new album that mixes mantras and chants with newly composed music, Inner World, out July 6th to coincide with the Tibetan spiritual leader’s 85th birthday.
The Dalai Lama previewed the 11-track album with “Compassion,” which is based on one of the most famous Buddhist prayers. The songs boasts a decidedly New Age flow with plenty of ethereal instrumentals, but it’s anchored by a steady bass and drum groove that the Dalai Lama rides deftly as he chants the Sanskrit mantra,...

Italian Film Festival In Scotland
The cream of Italy's recent output is served here, including a host of festival winners. Oscar entry Terraferma contrasts the stunning Sicilian landscape with issues of seaside poverty and immigration, while the latter topic also crops up in the realist drama Our Life, for which Elio Germano won a Cannes best actor award in 2010. The big winner at the national Donatello awards, We Believed, is a three-hour account exploring Italy's reunification, and for perspective there are classics such as Elio Petri's Oscar-winning 1970 thriller Investigation Of A Citizen Above Suspicion.
Dca, Dundee; Edinburgh Filmhouse; Gft, Glasgow; Eden Court, Inverness, Fri to 26 Apr

PBS announced a trio of new multipart religious documentaries that will explore faith in America.
"God in America," "The Buddha" and "The Calling" will look at different aspects of religious faith and air on the public-funded channel next year.
"For many Americans, exploring religion and faith is one of life's biggest and most central questions, and PBS offers some of the most compelling, wide-ranging programming on this subject anywhere on television," said John F. Wilson, PBS chief programming executive.
"God in America," produced as part of the channel's "Frontline" and "American Experience" documentary programs, is a six-hour film examining 500 years of American religious history from the voyage of Christopher Columbus to the 2008 election.
"The Buddha" is a two-hour documentary from Emmy winner David Grubin that details the life of the enlightened Indian sage and tracks his biography aided by paintings and sculptures.
