- On June 18th 2015 the Dalai Lama Centre for Compassion hosted the distinguished Tibetan philosopher and chief English translator for His Holiness the Dalai Lama, Thuptem Jinpa to speak about his new book A Fearless Heart. In this book Jinpa shows us how compassion can reduce stress and lead to a greater sense of wellbeing and happiness. This event will took place at Trinity College, Oxford in the Danson Room, and was chaired by Alex Norman, and Kerry Smallman.

Living example of compassion. In person but also in his writing. This book is realy clear and easy to read. I realy recomend everybody.
Thank you so much dear Thupten Jinpa for all your speeches, books and translations for his holiness the Dalai Lama.
, many thanks for sharing this wonderful video! 🙏🏻🌹❤️
Before discovering this talk, I found and listened to Jinpa's "A conversation about Buddhism and science" interview on TH-cam, uploaded five months ago, which I would recommend listening to. There he speaks of the limits to integrating Buddhist principles with science and Western psychology. Two differences are critical: that feelings of empathy are not compassion. And that American mindfulness teachers have removed principles of mindfulness and compassion from the ethical framework of Buddhism. Buddhism has altars, god images, and religious rituals as well as sitting meditation. Proponents such as Kabat-Zinn and Sam Harris have dumped that ethical framework to reach a generation which prefers to label itself as "spiritual-but-not-religious" and rejects formal ethics. Mindfulness is now something to market, not a way of ethical living, but another technique to remove oneself mentally from FEELING suffering, rather than facing its sources within us. To Buddhists mindfulness cannot be an isolated technique.
He has a similar clarity and strength of augment to Sam Harris. But his ideas comes from a place of, well, compassion. Thanks for posting!
Great lecture, brilliant, deep and clear. Well done! Thank you 🙏
No nurturing, no cooperation = no evolution, no life!
I wish he'd been around and it was acceptable to think this way when I studied philosophy. It was hard headed heartless competitiveness mostly. Anything like this would have been thought to belong somewhere else, if anywhere at all. Better late etc.
Such a wonderful presentation. I wished I was there at that time!!
Thank you beautiful composition Joe on auspicious day. Wish you health and happiness :)

compassion benefits the compassionate. That proves the theory of psychological egoism.
Not only! That's too simplistic. It seems you didn't listen to the whole lecture, or missed essential points 🙏🌺🌼💕
Don't really expect you to read a reply four years later, but anyway:
Being selfish and living a purely hedonistic life will most likely make you suffer more than being selfless. But only through being genuinely selfless will you actually benefit yourself. I don't think you will ever succeed in achieving anything resembling "inner peace" or "nirvana" through being "selfless" for your own good. You may start that way, but ultimately it will have to turn into genuine selflessness. Not because you want what's best for you, but because it's simply logical to go against what our evolutionary, self-preservatory instincts tell us, and act in a way which will benefit everyone (including yourself). Because we are all of equal value, even the people we may hate, and putting yourself above anyone else is simply delusional and will inevitably result in suffering: for yourself and for other beings.
I tried to construct a good answer, but I am not entirely sure it is 100 % coherent.
@@vinofiloblado1618 it is a good answer indeed and coherent too. I agree completely.
Trying to be spontaneous is obviously an oxymoron. There it gets complicated.
