Dalai Lama's visit starts with focus on Emory-Tibet Science Initiative

His Holiness the XIV Dalai Lama began his three-day visit as Emory Presidential Distinguished Professor with a press conference on Sunday, Oct. 17. President Jim Wagner presented the Dalai Lama with four new English/Tibetan science textbooks.

 

The textbooks are the latest milestone of the Robert A. Paul Emory-Tibet Science Initiative, which pairs Emory faculty with Tibetan Buddhist scholars to create a science curriculum for Tibetan monastics.
