OK, I don't get it. Keanu is one of the presenters in this 13-part documentary series on Buddhism, the other one being Richard Gere.

Now, Gere is known to be a Buddhist, but Keanu?? Didn't he say in interviews that he didn't convert? If so, then how on god's green earth did he get involved with this project?

BTW, hi Ani! Saw you in the comments. :-)

Just FYI there is no "conversion" into Buddhism unless you become a nun or monk. Many western practictioners of Buddhist philosophies/practices are trad judeo christians. The founder of one group I meditated with is a jesuit and they practiced zen buddhism the trad japanese way. It's all very inclusive and reeves lending his support to DB is cool like everything he does. Gere, not so cool...and he is clearly the poster boy. :)
