For the first time, science, and clinical science particularly, is able to develop and embrace therapeutic techniques that really rely heavily on the person's own, you know, agency, helping the patients to turn their own mind into an ally towards promotion of their own mental well-being.
What if the wisdom of ancient Buddhist philosophy could help tackle some of today’s most pressing issues? In this episode of 'A Skeptic's Path to Enlightenment', host Scott Snibbe sits down with Dr. Thupten Jinpa, a renowned Buddhist scholar and the Dalai Lama's principal translator, to explore this fascinating idea. With a PhD from Cambridge and years as a Buddhist monk, Dr. Jinpa brings a wealth of knowledge to the table.
They dive into how Buddhist principles can offer solutions to the climate crisis, enhance our family relationships, and promote a more compassionate world. Dr. Jinpa discusses the powerful role of critical thinking and debate in Buddhism and how neuroscience can deepen our understanding of the mind. This episode is perfect for anyone looking to blend spiritual wisdom with modern science to lead a more fulfilling life.
