"Meditation: It's Not What You Think." This is how Rinpoche introduces his lecture, in which he will discuss meditation practices—in a unique way—that are rooted in the past yet culturally relevant to modern life.
In recent decades, science and medicine have come to recognize the importance of the mind-body-energy connection, referring to meditation even as a form of complementary medicine and using it to treat a wide variety of conditions, including anxiety, depression, heart disorders, and cancer.
Rinpoche will give a talk addressing the potential of the mind and how everyone can learn to counteract life’s stress with calm, balance, compassion, and clarity.
Rinpoche holds a degree in Electrical Engineering from the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro. He is a renowned Buddhist teacher.
The event, organized by the CIE, is open to the public and geared toward the entrepreneurial community.
