Amid TEDGlobal's talk of our global connection and interconnection, it's a fine time to present Bob Thurman, Buddhist monk and scholar, on the Buddhist view of the universe.

When we can know everything, we can see how everything is interconnected -- and we can begin to feel compassion for every living being.
