First Scientific Conference on Vajrayana Practices

This is the first scientific conference on Vajrayana pratices, bringing together psychologists, neuroscientists, and medical scientists together with Vajrayana scholars and practitioners to examine the effects of mind-body practices of Vajrayana – the Tibetan and Himalayan Buddhist tradition on enhancing human cognition and creativity. For a variety of political and economic reasons, these advanced Vajrayana practices are currently on the verge of disappearance.
