  • Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom London United Kingdom (map)

ONLINE on the 29th October - Science Day IV

A collaboration between the Foundation for Developing Compassion and Wisdom (FDCW), Jamyang London Buddhist Centre, and Science & Wisdom LIVE.

Body, Mind, Consciousness: Perspectives from Scientists and Contemplatives

With: Prof. Anil Seth, Prof. John Vervaeke, Hilary McMichael, Mabel Odessey, Prof. Marjorie Woollacott, Geshe Tenzin Namdak, Swami Sarvapriyananda, Alison Murdoch, and Scott Snibbe

The relation of the mind to the body has been a topic of debate in both the sciences and philosophy of the East and the West for over 2000 years.

During this fourth Science Day, 3 scientists will go into an open dialogue with 4 contemplative practitioners to discuss the relation of mind to body, and consciousness. They will touch upon the many questions around consciousness in our culture, share their knowledge about contemplative tools that might help us in making the connection between our body and our mind, and discuss the far-reaching debates about what (and if!) consciousness actually is.
