Film Screening, Q&A Session with Director Dawn Engle, and Buddhism and science of mind workshop with John Bruna

Saturday, February 27th

The Dalai Lama engages with leading scientists in the fields of Cosmology, Quantum Physics, Cognitive Science / Psychology, Neuroscience, Molecular Biology, and Genetics to illuminate the inseparability of science and Buddhist philosophy. From the time he was a child, His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama was fascinated by mechanical objects and how things work. As he got older, this interest was directed toward science and technology, with a particular interest in how scientific theories and findings can work with Buddhism to address the world’s fundamental problems. “The Dalai Lama: Scientist” follows His Holiness throughout the decades as he partakes in critical analyses with leading scientists, discovering shared wisdom, insights, and compassion. Building a foundation of understanding the universe and the mind, the Dalai Lama works to help dissolve a sense of separation and cultivate compassion for all beings in a way that’s practical to advancements in science.
