The Meeting of Generations – Seminar: Buddhism and Education

22 August 2015 - 23 August 2015

Event Navigation

- With the participation of Lama Jigme Rinpoche -

Education is a fundamental part of life. We need to ask ourselves what values we choose to transmit to young people to help them in their development and allow them to become responsible and flourishing human beings. What can Buddhism bring to today’s youth? How can it be a concrete resource for their parents and their educators?
On the occasion of Dhagpo’s 40th Anniversary, two days will be consecrated to the theme of education and its foundational values, considered through the perspective of Buddhism. We will alternate between sharing experiences, personal accounts, and presentations of what Buddhism can offer to young people, their educators and the professionals who work with them.


This course is open to all, youth and adult alike.
Speakers: :
– Lama Jigme Rinpoche
– Various members of the coordinating team of “Living Free,” Dhagpo’s course for adolescents
– Lama Puntso will moderate the seminar
