Tibetan Buddhism and Common Law (The Search for Meaning in these Difficult Times)

Описание: Tibetan Buddhism and Common Law; How we Understand the World (The Search for Meaning in these Difficult Times). The hosts for this show were Jay Fidell and Chang Wang.

The discussion was: Drawing on the Tibetan Buddhist tradition of Prāsaṅgika Madhyamaka debate and the common law tradition of Socratic reasoning, this episode explores surprising parallels between two intellectual worlds that seem radically different. Through reflections on logic, interpretation, responsibility, compassion, and the limits of language, the discussion examines how both Tibetan Buddhism and the law train the mind to confront suffering, question assumptions, and live with complexity. Rather than placing religion and legal practice in separate compartments, the episode considers how both can be consistent disciplines of inquiry into reality, justice, and human experience.

The takeaway was: Law and Tibetan Buddhism, though culturally distant, share a common commitment to rigorous questioning, ethical responsibility, and the pursuit of clarity in an uncertain world — revealing that the roles of lawyer and Buddhist can be mutually enriching rather than conflicting.
