On September 9th, Princeton University announced that October 28th 2014 they will be hosting His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama to address students as well as the community about kindness, compassion, and intellect. In his talks the Dalai Lama will stress the importance of developing these attributes in an academic environment.
His Holiness will be addressing a small group of students and faculty during an afternoon conversation engaging participants to discuss the school's informal motto “In the Nation’s Services and in the Services of all Nations.”
The Dalai Lama is believed to be an enlightened being who takes rebirth instead on nirvana to serve humanity, to embody the compassion of all Buddhas and to be the patron. His holiness goes through years of training, learning subjects such as logic, Tibetan art and culture, Sanskrit, metaphysics, and the perfection of wisdom.
The Dalai Lama now travels all over the world teaching and giving talks. He speaks about topics such as Buddhism, Compassion, World Peace, and Religious Harmony.
The talk at Princeton will be free to the public and is titled “Develop the Heart”, it will be held in Jadwin Gymnasium at 9:30 am.
