Gere meditates at Indonesian Buddhist temple

Hollywood star Richard Gere meditated Monday at Indonesia’s Borobudur temple before touring the ninth-century Buddhist monument with his wife and son.

“He meditated for 20 minutes this morning at the top platform and made a 45-minute tour to admire the details of the temple’s reliefs,” temple manager Purnomo Siswo Prasetyo told AFP.

He said the star of “An Officer and a Gentleman” and “Pretty Woman” was “astonished” with the grandeur of the so-called temple mountain, which lies between two volcanoes about 40 kilometres (25 miles) northwest of Yogyakarta.
