While addressing definitions and philosophical underpinnings of loving kindness and compassion the seminar will also consider historical and hermeneutical issues in the interpretation of compassion in abhidharmic, Mahāyānist, and tantric modes of Buddhist thought.
Dates: Nov. 2 – Dec. 4, 2009.
Time: Tuesday and Friday, 1.00 - 2.30 pm
The seminar is open to the public. However, preregistration at the RYI offices is required.
