Satyagraha is one of my favorite operas. It's on now the Met site for free! Don't miss it, it's up till 630pm.
I know the opera isn't very Buddhist, but the composer is influenced by Buddhism, and the Hinduism is Buddhist adjacent. Tolstoy wasn't a Buddhist but he is a great thinker. Tagor wasn't a Buddhist, but he is a great poet. MLK wasn't a Buddhist, but he is important in the history of America for his non-violent protests.
In other notes, I'm reading Heartwood by Wendy Cadge.
Diogenes looking for an honest man
