Wisdom Podcast 001 - H.H. Karmapa: Vegetarianism, Online Education and Nuns’ Ordination

H.H. Karmapa: Vegetarianism, Online Education and Nuns’ Ordination. For our debut episode, Daniel travels to Dharamsala, India, to interview His Holiness the Karmapa, Ogyen Trinley Dorje. His Holiness talks about the efficacy of listening to Dharma classes, receiving empowerments, and taking ordination vows online, touching on the differences between Tibetan and traditional Western education and how each benefits from dialogue with the other. He further shares some thoughts on how Western Dharma centers could be improved; he talks about vegetarianism, including anecdotes from his own and his previous emanations’ experiences with vegetarianism; and he discusses his recent involvement planning to re-establish the tradition of full ordination for Tibetan Buddhist nuns. http://learn.wisdompubs.org/podcast/k...
