The Subtle Art Of Enjoying What You Have | Ven. Geshe La Dorji Damdul | TEDxGGDSDCollege

Описание: Words fall short when we try to describe Ven. Geshe La's wisdom and his talks. His presence is one of the biggest motivating factors that anyone can learn from. His way of talking is simple yet worldly.

Ven. Geshe La Dorji Damdul is the director of Tibet House, New Delhi and he is also the official translator to His Holiness Dalai Lama.

His talk emphasizes upon oneself and how our aspiration is to seek happiness amidst of all the problems that surround us. He teaches us about removing the suffering from our lives.

His method of relating Buddhist philosophy with Quantum Physics enlighten us about the stark similarities between the two which we on a daily basis can relate to. Ven. Geshe La Dorji Damdul is the Director of Tibet House, New Delhi, which is the Cultural Centre of His Holiness the Dalai Lama and he is also the official translator to His Holiness (since 2005). The term 'Geshe' means "Doctor of Buddhist Philosophy and dialectics".
He has done his Geshe Lharampa Degree from Drepung Loseling Monastic University.
Geshe La Dorji Damdul has translated many texts from Tibetan to English such as the seminal works of Ancient Indian Masters Arya Nagarjuna's "Mulamadyamikakarika" (Fundamental Wisdom of the Middle Way) and Acharya Shantideva's "Bodhicaryavatara" (Wisdom Chapter). These works of the great philosophers of the Ancient Indian University of Nalanda composed in Sanskrit 1200 years ago, were totally lost in the Indian tradition. It is only through such translations from the Tibetan that the world, at large, has learnt of this philosophical culture. He has been serving as the Director of Tibet House since March 2011. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
