The Visit of His Holiness the Dalai Lama (2007)
Photos by Emory Photo-Video
Emory University welcomed His Holiness the Dalai Lama for a three-day visit to the university from October 20-22, 2007. His Holiness accepted Emory's offer of a Presidential Distinguished Professorship, and his visit to the university included his installment in this position and his inaugural lecture.
His Holiness's visit included his full participation in a one-day conference on science and spirituality co-hosted by the Mind & Life Institute with leading scientists and contemplatives from the university and across the country on Saturday, October 20, and an interfaith summit on religion as a source of conflict and a resource for peace-building on Sunday, October 21. His Holiness also gave a free public talk in downtown Atlanta at Centennial Olympic Park on Monday afternoon, October 22.
A more comprehensive online historic record is in progress. In the meantime, we hope that you enjoy these photos as well as the additional information and video links at our The Visit website (http://dalailama.emory.edu).
