1. The reason why I chose this movie Buddhism because the book was interesting so I thought that watching a video on it would further my liking of this art culture. I think it is so fascinating that he sat under a tree and when he stopped meditating that he became an enlightened one. The Hinduism video is also an interesting time because of it exotic forms.

The keys concept that I learned in the Buddhism movie were as follows torana, the door to understanding the gateway to the temple. Sanchi which was the center of the art and architecture for Buddhism. Every stone is like thestupa has a story to tell. Buddha is all symbolism he is never see in human form. In the Hinduism video the key concepts are Artti which means the removal of pain, which is ceremony for mothers that bathe in her waters. Cave art is very common in India. Architecture went from wood to stone.

The chapter relates to this movie in Buddhism was all about the beginning way in which it was created to who the people of India followed Buddha even after he passed away. It gave a more in depth look on how on pilgrim would go through finding enlightenment. The Hinduism relates that the gods and goddesses are the same as Christianity but the elaborate decoration is what they love doing the most. The temples are a something to worship as well that is why they are so decorated. That everything is symbolism in Hinduism.

My opinion of these videos are I really like the Buddhism video it put to the fact that Buddhism is also found in upstate NY. Hinduism is also just interesting and I learned even more of the why this art culture was formed. Also how the art has transformed over time.
