Each year, His Holiness the Dalai Lama travels the world offering teachings and public talks to individuals from many different faiths and backgrounds. While His Holiness will also often bestow empowerment and initiations to coincide with these teachings, he continues to stress the importance of one attending teachings in order to provide practitioners with a better understanding of Buddhist philosophy.
On May 20th, 21st, 22nd, and 23rd, 2010 Healing the Divide and The Tibet Center are honored to host His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s return to New York City.
His Holiness will impart three days of teachings on Nagarjuna’s Commentary on Bodhicitta, and A Guide to the Bodhisattva’s Way of Life, by Shantideva.
On May 23rd, His Holiness the Dalai Lama will give a public talk entitled Awakening the Heart of Selflessness. His Holiness will discuss the process of realizing true selflessness and how this realization awakens a genuine caring for others. This is how we achieve inner peace for ourselves, a feeling of responsibility for the happiness of others, and ultimately a more compassionate world for everyone. The public talk will conclude with a short question and answer session.
Both events will take place at Radio City Music Hall in NYC
