    Meditation Is Education

    Geshe Lobsang Tenzin Negi was born in a remote village in Kinnaur, India. He was selected to be in the first class of a school founded by H.H. the Dalai Lama, the Institute of Buddhist Dialectics. After that, he continued his studies at Drepung Loseling Monastic University in South India. In the 1990s he enrolled at Emory University as a doctoral student under Dr. Robert Paul, professor of anthropology and later Dean of Emory College. Following completion of his degree, he became a Lecturer at Emory University as is now a full Teaching Professor. In 1998 he became director of the Emory-Tibet Partnership, which in 2017 transitioned to become the Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics (or "Compassion Center" for short). The Center has three main programs: Cognitively-Based Compassion Training (CBCT), SEE Learning (Social Emotional and Ethical Learning), and ETSI (Emory Tibet Science Initiative).   Prof Negi serves as the Executive Director of the Compassion Center, and continues to teach courses for undergraduates at Emory and on Emory's summer "Tibetan Mind/Body Sciences" summer study abroad program in India.

    The Ethics of Forgiveness

    In this episode, Kitty and Brendan speak with Prof. John Lysaker of Emory University (Director of Emory University's Center for Ethics) about his recent book "Hope, Trust and Forgiveness: Essays in Finitude."  The conversation explores forgiveness within the context of ethics. Prof. Lysaker speaks about singularity: the idea that each situation is unique and requires improvisational thinking. We cannot simply create a rule that applies to everyone and every situation as if people were simply substitutable, one for another.  This episode delves deeply into philosophy and the ethics of forgiveness in a rich conversation that rewards close listening. A link to John's excellent book, "Hope, Trust and Forgiveness": https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/H/bo205547565.html Emory University's Center for Ethics has excellent year-round programming: https://ethics.emory.edu/ As does Emory's Center for Contemplative Science and Compassion-Based Ethics: https://compassion.emory.edu
