Our host is a Tibetan monk at Emory University

Our host is in the Emory-Tibet Science Initiative, which is a landmark undertaking promoting the convergence of science and spirituality. An educational program specifically designed to teach modern science to Tibetan monastics, ETSI began when His Holiness the Dalai Lama invited Emory University to collaborate with the Library of Tibetan Works and Archives. The idea to create and implement a comprehensive modern science curriculum for use in monastic institutions in India was met with an enthusiastic response from many members of Emory's science faculty.
