Tashi Delek !!!

-Buddha’s dhamma in ancient India and social transformation -Vicious nature of Indian society and the struggle -Social revolution to establish a righteous society -Buddhist roots of all the Indians need to be recognized -Good moral order to eradicate the suffering of the humanity

-The purpose of Buddha’s dhamma -Dhamma and religion- Differences and similarities -Sunnakhatta, Potthapada dialogue -The Law of Karma- Earlier fallacious views replaced by scientific ones

When we consider what religion is for mankind, and what science is, it is not exaggeration to say that the future course of history depends upon the decision of this generation as to the relations between them.

Why science and scientific approach? -Centrality of Mind -Dependent origination. Acceptance of the grand law of the cause and effect -Law of Impermanence -Sunyata -Interdependence, Descartes, Systems approach, both incorporated. Physics correlates.

How neuroscience correlates? -Neuroplasticity, third noble truth -Mirror Neurons, empathy -Lack of independent self -Buddha nature affirmation by neuroscientists -The relationship - Social, economic, political, medical applications - Buddha nature, affirmation by neuroscientists - Significance of convergences
