Speaker Bio: Matthieu Ricard, a gifted scientist turned Buddhist monk, is a best selling author, translator, and photographer. He has lived and studied in the Himalayas for the last 35 years...

Stating that meditation sounds like crap does not help your cause. Try outlining the benefits in future and people might warm to it a little more easily :)

Anyone can upload on YouTube a video past 10 minutes. There's no time limit, though a file size limit I believe. But everyone can upload the same high amount (Up to 1 GB I Think?)
You just have to use a separate uploader page.

Thank you for posting this. Matthieu Ricard has the ability to talk about buddhism without talking about buddhism, and that is great, because it's not important if it is a buddhist, christian, hinduist, muslim, etc., the important thing is the meaning of the teaching in our own life.
I whish there were more videos like this with spanish subtitles!!
Thanks again!!
