A Buddhist Scientist
A Buddhist Scientist is part of the Compassion Revolution documentary film series by Tibet TV, Department of Information and International Relations, Central Tibetan Administration produced in honor of His Holiness the 14th Dalai Lama’s 90th birthday and the Year of Compassion celebration.
This short documentary highlights His Holiness the Dalai Lama’s groundbreaking efforts to bridge modern science and Buddhism, driven by his inquisitive mind and commitment to world peace through inner peace.
For over three decades, he has engaged with scientists to explore how Buddhist inner knowledge can support healing and wellbeing, viewing Buddhism not just as a religion for saints but as a practical philosophy for everyday life.
Among his key achievements is the introduction of modern science into Tibetan monastic education, fostering mutual learning between these traditions in their shared quest to understand reality. Initiatives like the Mind and Life Institute and Science for Monks and Nuns showcase his lasting impact.
Featuring interviews with his closest aides, the film explores his vision, legacy, and the ongoing benefits of this collaboration. Today, his message of compassion and interconnectedness remains essential amid global challenges.
