The Theological Education Committee of the American Academy of Religion invites you to attend a Webinar that speaks to the place of “Buddhist education” in contemporary society:
The Dharma and the Academy:
Buddhist Theological Education in 21st Century America
Wednesday March 15, 2-3pm PT
With Dr. José Cabezón, Dalai Lama Professor of Buddhist Studies,
UC Santa Barbara and Chenxing Han, Author
Moderated by Dr. Namdrol Miranda Adams, Maitripa College
Although it has arguably been in practice for at least the last quarter century or more, to date, consensus among academics and practitioners regarding the definition of Buddhist theological education in American culture has not yet been reached. This conversation between Dr. José Cabezón and Chenxing Han, moderated by Dr. Namdrol Miranda Adams, seeks to determine common ground, interrogate existing challenges and opportunities, and asks, with an eye to the context and settings of their institutions and others, what is “Buddhist theological education?” and whom and/or what purposes should it serve?
