nalanda institute for contemplative science

If you’re in the neighborhood Wednesday evening (June 9)—and the interface of Buddhism and psychotherapy is your thing—Nalanda Institute for Contemplative Science is hosting a panel discussion, “The Confluence of Two Streams: Buddhist Psychotherapy in the West,” at Tibet House in New York City. Participating are Nalanda’s founder and director, psychiatrist Joe Loizzo, and two other big names in the field, Paul Fulton, PhD, president of the Institute for Meditation and Psychotherapy, and psychoanalyst Jeffrey Rubin, PhD, author of Psychotherapy and Buddhism. The conversation should be lively: moderating is Robert Thurman, the charismatic Columbia professor and president of Tibet House US. The event is a benefit for Nalanda, a non-profit that supports educational programs, professional training, and clinical research integrating meditation, yoga, psychotherapy, and medicine. Nalanda’s latest project is a four-year program in “Sustainable Happiness.” For more information, click here. -Joan Duncan Oliver
