What Buddhism Reveals About the Universe and the Mind | University of Toronto
How does Buddhism understand the universe—and what does that mean for the mind? In this lecture at the University of Toronto, Khenpo Sodargye explores Tibetan Buddhist cosmology in dialogue with modern science. From countless worlds and vast galaxies to karma, perception, the Kalachakra Tantra, and the inner world of the mind, this talk invites us to look beyond a purely material view of reality. What you will discover in this lecture: ① How Buddhism views countless worlds and vast cosmic systems ② Where Buddhist cosmology and modern astronomy may meet ③ Why karma and perception shape the world we experience ④ What the Kalachakra Tantra says about time, planets, and the cosmos ⑤ Why exploring the outer universe should also lead us inward 👇 Check the timestamps below to follow the teaching step by step. 00:00:00 Welcome at the University of Toronto 00:03:11 Why Tibetan Buddhism Matters Today 00:05:15 Buddhism, Science, and the Vastness of the Universe 00:08:00 Countless Worlds in Buddhist Cosmology 00:10:00 Formation, Existence, Destruction, and Emptiness 00:13:20 Ancient Cosmology and the Shift from Earth-Centered Views 00:18:00 The Avatamsaka Sutra and Infinite World Systems 00:20:00 Karma, Perception, and the World We Experience 00:23:00 Spherical Worlds and Early Buddhist Astronomy 00:26:00 Kalachakra Tantra, Time, Planets, and the Cosmos 00:30:00 Knowledge, Practice, and Inner Transformation 00:32:00 Why the Inner World Matters Most #KhenpoSodargye #TibetanBuddhism #BuddhistCosmology #Vajrayana #Kalachakra #BuddhismAndScience #BuddhistWisdom #UniversityOfToronto #Cosmology #MindAndUniverse #Karma #Perception #AvatamsakaSutra #EasternPhilosophy #InnerWorld
