Ramachandran of UC San Diego and Jennifer Thomas of San Diego State University in a scientific and philosophical discussion of human consciousness. This is the final event of the Dalai Lama's "Compassion Without Borders" tour sponsored by San Diego's three largest universities.

Prof: VSR can't thank you enough for bringing to our knowledge the varied views on brain science. Watch all your videos and reading all your books. Thank you. HH made the concepts so simple through his stories and examples
I love the honesty of the Doctor in the center.
I happen to have Extreme empathy. I often literally feel the other person's (animal and human) suffering. This is a very painful existence. But I would not trade it for less compassion Ever. This heightened compassion makes me one with my dog and the Infinite Cosmos. This is Love. I care More about the other being than myself and I would give my life to save him or her.
I could sit and listen to V.S.R. talk about the brain all night. Come to think of it, I have done that a time or two.
Long live His Holiness The Dalai lama to sake for world peace!!
Oooph, the conversation is amazing. Beside even the content, it gives hints to the ideas that give you insights that change your approach to very general things in life like thoughts, feelings, relations and self-positioning.
The question about reincarnation from Rama was probably the most interesting. Meditation is the must to answer all these questions. Ancient texts like Upanishads are teaching about inner science. Education should be the mixture of both. Adlai Lama is right saying that “problems are our own creations”.
Seemingly divergent viewpoints trying genuinely to communicate ... not necessarily easy to listen to, but a worthwhile effort for humanity.
great work..My lama
Very interesting. Loved it.
outstanding conversation. Great respect.
Interesting to see so many different views on the same supject,
It really give you the complete idea of compassion.
I noticed that too, I think the language barrier between them and the fact the Dali Lama sort of brushed his question aside led to that. Mostly based off misunderstanding. I mean V.S could have understood him more clearly then I and it translated to him being insulted.
Nice... be truthful. Satyameva Jayate.
His Holiness Dalai Lama is the real buddist monk unlike some buddist monks who took up politics as in recent times in some parts of asia.
Interesting to see these different perspectives coming together.
Shame that the language barrier gets in the way so much, as scientists questions seem to be not quite understood.
The marriage of spiritual, introspective insight and scientific approach is fascinating - they can guide and refine each other.
good point. knowing the guy a little better I would not be surprised he cracked a joke about it before the filming started.
For your reference: Enlightenment Education Foundation. thank you !
It is completely unfactual what the Dalai Lama said. It has been scientifically proven that animals have compassion beyond their own species. This has been Observed for thousands of years that animals will rescue an animal from another species other than their own including a human. That is the mother instinct which is Love and which always exceeds one's own species because compassion does not draw a line. Compassion is non dual.
Did anyone notice at the very end that Prof. Ramachandran didn't applaud the dalai lama. I wonder if it has anything to do with what the dalai lama said about hindouism and his belief system?
I believe what was said in this video specifically was, "He has been CALLED the... but he himself claims himself just a simple man."
It has been 10 years
Karma:whatever goes around comes around Newton’s second law:for every action,there is an equal and opposite reaction. Coincidence?
Emily The Weirdo totally. Newton’s law of action and reaction talks about bodies interacting by forces. This karma formulation talks about humor, emotions, empathy and perception of external events.
Two very distinct objects. The supposed similarity comes only because of the poor formulation, causing confusion and creating the illusion of similarity.
Karma is more like general relativity, even quantum relativity.
It is because we do not know ourselves that we get into trouble in our society because if you have control of your emotions you will never get angry or break the laws or fight with your wife or steal of rob anybody because when we know ourselves we become masters of our ego and the spiritual abilities will be manifested thru the real self and not the ego or evil in us.
I empathize when someone spills a pitcher of beer,I feel the pain
I would have a lot more respect for the Dalai Lama if he had insisted that everyone in the panel can sit on a comfortable chair as he got. Yes I know that''s envy and being picky. But if most of this is about symbols: This simple symbol for equality is in fact also a symbol that helps mutual compassion.
It is interesting the point of the physics of the mind, because we only know the effects of those emotions but we do not know how they are manifested but we know of the existence of those attributes of the human consciousness. Moreover, his scientific religious beliefs are focused in the self control of those emotions just like the great master Jeshua said, " know yourselves and you will know my father" In other to know myself I need to have control of my emotions and master them to a degree.
good comment
Thanks for that pcuimac. Your sententious doggerel repeated from the writings of others has opened my fucking eyes and changed my life forever. I am in your debt, sir.
Did you get all of that?
may i ask why?
The Dalai Lama is a master's of his own self or the real which is the invisible or the spirit and that is everlasting because its regenerative and mutable. Moreover, he is saying that science and the scientific community is only focusing in the material or the ego which the physical manifestations of the innerself. Therefore, we should have emphasis in that what we cannot see or touch which are those things that are created by the mind, eg emotions, compassion, anger, happiness ect...
Living Budha 💘 💜 💛 💚
Does anyone know the name of the intro music?
caprichi arabe
I find their conversation very interesting; better than most dinner parties.
Don Wesley or chats at the dance club ^_^
how do you know he didn't?
I've read many of the Dalai Lama's books, and I like him much better through the paper. This video was quite a dissappointment, although Ramachandran was the most interesting to listen to.
It's interesting to note that the philosopher is from a Roman Catholic institution, claiming that science and religion can be friends. I don't agree, and especially not Christianity or Islam.
Jennifer Thomas didn't discuss one single point that she said she wished to discuss during the introduction.
A sun visor cap doesn't really suggest divine wisdom to me, but hey, what do I know? Seriously though, a sun visor? Is there no-one in his entourage savvy enough to keep that off his dome?
THE PROCESS!
Nice hat.
To understand this type of conversacion,you have to see beyond words, and tink as like they do,mirrorneuron? Being alert.of you true main,is realy difuclt,therefore meditacion aplly with the logic of are life style,time, I just meditacion by reading and puting my mine and to studying,as writhgenow.youare being part of my medation.
True, but I managed to get through it. Did you?
In regards to the Holly Dalli Lama he can only tell us what we can understand because there are occult sciences that even the most renown occultist like Alister Crowly and John Dee did not understood and they were outstanding people of science. Anyhow if they and others like our own scientific community cannot comprehend then we will not have a clue of those hidden pathways of wisdom. However, even Jeshua said, "milk for the kids and meat for grownups. So it is the path to enlightenment.
hmmm.... well, if they are not Buddhists because their actions in your understanding do not reflect the Buddha's teachings, then neither are the monks in Burma or any of the Catholic authorities, who are supposed to be servants, but in reality act as lords. Am I right? Is that your point?
This is actually funny. Sometimes it feels like hearing a person who sees explaining to a person who has never seen what color and seeing is.

Dalai Lama observation about world totalitarian leaders 🤣🤣
I feel like the language barrier really hindered the quality of a talk that would have had great potential.
one consciousness
so whst compssion conscious ...those individual matter...let one be callibrated with...thing is how...how one can do with this calibration respective of the world...human being needs musics to...
I sure wish somebody would help me become a neuroscientist.
Good stuff, but the panel needs a child to bring some perspective.
Here UCTV $$$ Take all my money xD
Buddhists most certainly accept that last claim. I'd remind you that the first tenet of Buddhism is that all of this is suffering. The entire point of the religion is to *stop* being reborn. In fact, Buddhists should be the first to celebrate the news that people aren't reborn. There would be celebration in the Buddhist world if that were true. Don't assume that Buddhism is anything like Abrahamic religion -it isn't.
AnyOne Else have a slight-suspicion that Some of The `Scientists` are missing The Passion in Compassion...?
Peace and Love-be X:)
Hinman needs to shut up an study the Mental Alchemy movement. To take things like negative emotion and convert them into a positive until you only feel positive. That there is not a matter of who you are compassionate with because you are compassionate to everything. This is possible because in Quantum theory everything is connected and a part of each component.
Funny how Ramachandran Is the only one not clapping at the end... I feel the dalai lama expresses superiority in attitude/body language (contrary to the values he expressed) and gets the attention because of more simplistic/ morally soothing blabing, a croud pleaser, whithout answering much of the questions really. Shame the woman didnt talk much about her subject also...
In summary, before watching this presentation I very much liked the Dalai Lama, now I like him a little less. I am now beginning to wonder if this will deteriorate further upon watching further such presentations.
Man, it's such a shame neuroscience is so new. I'd PAY to watch a younger His Holiness engage in dialogue with the findings of neuroscience research. Now THAT would be a conversation. Nonetheless, this is still great material. I rememebr when I first discovered Buddhism. It's as if I'd been a poor homeless person all my life and someone showed me the way to food, water and shelter. True story, but only Buddhist practice will make one find out.
Neuroscience is the most rapidly advancing area of science. The existence of great spiritual masters, yogis who have spent 60 years in a cave, and all of our research concerning their brains allows us to leapfrog what would have taken many decades to discover otherwise. Many labs are working on reverse-engineering enlightenment right now, and some methods are in Phase II and III trials. Basically, can we get done with the push of a button what these yogis have spent a lifetime actualizing?
Pschedelic therapy also holds huge potential for spiritual practice. If used wisely, psychedelics can provide deep authentic insights and they vastly increase neuroplasticity, making it much easier to change embedded patterns in your brain, as the brain tends to ossify after about the age of 25.

You guys need to get to a place of being able to scientifically determine where the root cause is in the body- meaning if karma is cellular based on consciousness giving rise to a body appropriate to its karmic learning. I need to know where this is setting up. I know it is in the body. Please increase your field quickly on these matters. Please determine pointedly really how this works. We know the body is a heap of elements and spaces My opinion is it is in the cells and DNA- that is where karma is stored or that is what cells are. I need to know so can start figuring some things out. Thanks. Long life holiness.
For your reference.IF you have some interests in the true Buddha dharma. please visit the '' religious section '' of FORUMOSA titled '' The Bodhi way '' or ''Tibetan Buddhism is not Buddhism.Lamas are not Buddhists. thank you !
Let´s test how good your german grammar is, will we?
Interestingly, there is lot that can be learn in You Tube and the science of the Yoke or Yogui is what Jeshua was speaking about when he was referring to hidden path ways and that is the art of the Kundulini or the science of the serpent that is the mystery of ancient times. Moreover, it consist in raising the seven chakras or glands in our bodies like the pineal gland, the thyroid gland and all other glands to make them function in conjunction to a point when the electric charge goes on top of our heads and then we will get direct knowledge or gnosis from the universe itself which the Hindus call Prajna. It is the ultimate baptism of fire and water it is statel of being and the ultimate degree of spirituality.

在台灣達賴喇嘛與喇嘛們不敢與我們舉行真正的佛法辯論，因為我們可以真正的佛法將他們的法義完全破斥。佛法修學是要能證實 2550年前 釋迦牟尼佛的佛法完全正確。阿彌陀佛！

I think your argument below is a poor one, but I agree that religion is not compatible with science in any shape or form. It is a bit disappointing to watch, and I'd like to have seen the Dalai Lama allow Ramachandran's question on reincarnation.
the trolling is real
And how do they conduct that "science of mind"? By sitting for hours on one spot and meditating. I wouldn´t have got any degree in physics by using that method at the university. I would have been expelled by my Professor.
pcuimac The Dalai Lama has never expressed an intention to rule Tibet again. He doesn't 'rule' the Tibetan government in exile, it is elected and he is the spiritual head only. He doesn't even want independence for Tibet, recognizing that goal is unrealistic, but wants a form of limited autonomy to give Tibetans some degree of control over their own culture. The Chinese are engaged in a policy of settling Tibet with Han Chinese in a less brutal attempt to dilute Tibetan culture and identity than the mass murders and wholesale destruction of the 1960s.
science and beleif and morality are all linked yet religion is speculations on the reasons why of feelings or perceptions we have but are not yet explained in detail by science due to the bariers of size and physical limits of our sensorial absorbtions
Were I the Dalai Lama (an absurd notion admittedly), these guys would have put me to sleep with their blather.
no, i did not!
It's too bad that some philosophical notions have to be regurgitated in a currupt way.
Brain= growing "hardware" Mind = software ??
Send on the goose chase 😈😈😈😈😀😁😯😉
Reincarnation . once upon time Itoo was ridiculing this. but after learning,reading yoga specially Vethatri maharshi who esttablishe sky yoga after his research on Manikkavasagar,Patanjali he hypothesised the genetic centre in the body that is' 'Mooladhara center' where a seed of your next generation comes are your reincarnation. permutation' of combination of your, youwifeand your ancestors are distributed inthe nex generation of your children,grand children brothr sisters who all share the genes.
He even hypothsised your ambition,unfulfilled wishes are registered in yourgenes and carried over to the next generation. May be your 4thor 5th generation child may get that gene and will have that wish and pursue it. I am very much impressed. physicallywe see the same reseblences of people in far off places,mannerism or tastes or wishes. I am broughht born and brought up in a South Indian brahmin family with beliefs like reincarnation (you die aand reborn from your ashses.)
Why can´t we heare just scientists and not always what wackos from beyond think about a topic without any knowledge about it? It´s ridiculous to see professionals sit on the side of the Lama like some "Comparsa" and the Lama in a distinguished position like he is the center of wisdom.
:-p
Never use the word bloody .
So what i learned from this, among other things, the dalai lama beat a parrot with a stick when he was young. Shit son.
Doing cruel tests on animals in order to "find the compassion center in the brain". Something sounds off with that endeavor.
Hahaha !
compassion for a bunch of neurons and chemicals is a waste of time, nature itself has no compassion for the body which ends up dead for instance eaten by worms or vultures and turned into stool. Its the person in the body we have compassion for, This person is Atma, the soul. Reincarnation is taking place based on the survival after death of the person in the form of the eternal element know as the Atma, or atomic particle that is not changing as the body decays and changes. The neurology department is still yet to identify the conscious entity that commands the neurons to move the limbs of the body because the Atma is an atomic particle that is undetectable using modern technology or sense perception. The material world as a whole is 90% dark matter so this should be no surprise to us. Dark matter is not out their somewhere, its everywhere, its the 90% of all things we can't register with our instruments, this discussion was somewhat disappointing to watch due to the fact, that these people are meant to be both spiritually and materially the leaders of millions, and yet have very little to say outside of their institutional repetitive chirping's.
Make threat of pain , with anger you put bigger threat of pain , demon psychology.😀😀😈😈😈😉
you gotta be fucking kidding me
Neuron is pain receptor or pleasure receptor😈😈😈😉😀
Dr.Rama is much more intelligent and interesting than Dala L.
I feel there is something fishy going on here. I personlay don't trust Dalai Lama.
Are you talking about CCP Neo faschism princlings?
toooooooooooooooo long introduction!!!!TOO LONG! TOO LONG! TOO LONG!
For you reference ;
Dalai Lama Cult : Postmodern Neo-feudalism and the Decline of the West.
Thank You !
They find neurons on fire in Varanasi😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😈😯😉😀
Tibet Dharma Kings decided to invite direct from Nalanda instead China. Chinese buddhism is incomplet so you better study deeper and stop acting agent of CCP. The law of karma will turn against you !
What a parody, even if I am important I wouldn't like to be introduced that way, it's too much for me, I am shy.
First! BWAHAHA
Aristotel was awful biologists..
These people are the modern manisfestion of the flim flam man. The entire human body is still not understood, let alone our brain. The Dali Lama has no idea what is being said. What's with the visor.
He plays the meek guy. But he wants to rule Tibet again. Not a task a "simple person" would try to accomplish.
Hysterical- I mean it was a joke wasn`t it? spurious burbling...etc etc...
This kind of CCP propaganda, Dharma should be tought only who seeks for, you make a fool out of Chinese Buddhism so first dimminish your ignorance.
The woman talks too much
