Geshe Dorji Damdul on how to master the mind (Part 2)

Waking Up Closer To Tibet

Mental health issues are one of the leading challenges in the world today. We live in an age where hustle culture is touted and mental well-being is severely ignored. It is imperative for us to take care of our body and mind. To gain more insights on how we can master our mind for happiness, Tenzin is in conversation with Venerable Geshe Dorji Damdul. He is the director of Tibet House, New Delhi which is the cultural centre of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama. He has been the official translator/interpreter for His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama since 2005. As assigned by the Office of H.H. the Dalai Lama, he visited the US in 2008 to work with Prof. Paul Ekman, a world-renowned Psychologist, one of the pioneers of the science of micro-facial expressions, on H.H. the Dalai Lama’s book “Emotional Awareness” which is co-authored by Dr Paul Ekman of the University of California Medical School. He was one of the chief editors of the textbook on Buddhist Science and Philosophy. This textbook is to be used for Centres and Institutes all over the world to study more thoroughly on Buddhist philosophy, metaphysics, epistemology, and science. He was also assigned to work on H.H. the Dalai Lama’s book “Ethics for the New Millennium – part II, which later came up with the title Beyond Religion,” and the series of “Art of Happiness” book which was jointly written by H.H. the Dalai Lama and Prof. Howard Cutler. He is actively involved in critical editing works with other books of H.H. the Dalai Lama like “The Graded Path.” Tune in now to listen!
