COMPASSION MEDITATION- Part One of Full Program

Mapping Current Research and Charting Future Directions

Spend four hours with the Dalai Lama. This all-day conference will bring leading scientists and educators into dialogue with His Holiness the Dalai Lama to discuss the state of current research on empathy and compassion, the scientific study of meditation practices for cultivating compassion, and the implementation of such meditation programs in various clinical and educational settings. The importance of empathy and compassion for human flourishing is being increasingly recognized in the fields of psychology, neuroscience, medicine and contemplative science. Participants will include speakers from the three North American universities that are conducting on-going scientific research on compassion meditation (Emory University, the University of Wisconsin at Madison, and Stanford University). All three of these universities draw their inspiration from His Holiness's leading role in the study of compassion and work closely with traditional Tibetan contemplative scholars as research collaborators.

I get the point that this is copyrighted material, no need to flash it every 20 seconds and burn it into my retina. Irritating to the point I stopped watching after the first ten minutes.
