Acclaimed Buddhist scholar, author, and principal translator for H.H. the Dalai Lama, Thupten Jinpa, Ph.D., sits down for an in-depth interview with Laura Chandler (Foundation of the Sacred Stream and Sacred Stream Radio Podcast). In this engaging conversation, they cover a wide range of topics, including the relationship between science and consciousness, the conflict between faith and reason in the west, and the challenges of preserving Tibetan culture in a changing world. Jinpa offers his thoughts on the ways he sees Tibetan Buddhism evolving, how it addresses issues like gender equality, and the many places it is having a positive impact on individuals and contemporary society as a whole.
