I could listen to Gelong Thubten all day. This is a wonderful video, and I love the science backing too. Incredible.

The monk seems to come across making more sense and seeing the world as it truly is. Even tho as a Westener, I would think science has all the answers and only things that are proven in experiments and studies should be taken seriously, I'm seeing sciences limitations more clearly now. A combination of the both has got to be the best way, psychology and buddism, to truly understand the world as best as we can right now.

The most interesting and fascinating clip I've ever seen thank you

Scientist is very restless. Whereas Buddhist monk is very calm and explanation has good clarity

Astute observation.

What a fascinating and beautiful interaction and discussion between these two men from such different fields! Loved it, thank you.

My dear Scientist, its time u self reflect on your advanced curriculum, reaserch u learnt in your university and take a moment to observe this Monk , who is a live example of Human sanity , who sees life jus the way it is and not frm a scientific perspective. long live the monk

Thank you both so much. Very intensive thoughts and communication. Was interesting. 🌿🌍

Fascinating talk. Thank you New Scientist for sharing it.

Next level of humanity coming through in this movement. Ty for content +rep

Saul Mackie agreed - after all, it’s a natural progression: the Buddha asked people to verify what he talked about with their own experience. After a brief detour science is finally coming back to the mind :)

Very interesting. I can continue listening for hours even if I dont understand all the concepts. Sending Love and compassion to the world ❤

Excelent video

Brilliant talk 👍 still training but still feeling like throwing that brick at people sometimes 😉

Forgiveness is the message of the book PROOF OF ETERNITY by Alba Monn. It's about a mother who has a near-death-experience together with her child. In this near-death-experience, her child asks her to forgive the person who has abandoned both of them after a life-threatening accident!

These two are like the moment I Want You ends and Here Comes The Sun plays on Abbey Road, you love both in a very different way.

Wow!

Interesting duo... Western fellow trained in an eastern ideology with a very calm presence and an eastern origin person trained in western science with a restless presence... Hmm... Both have interesting points to make, agree on the waves but disagree on the depths within the ocean.. 😊 Thought provoking!

I have no problem moving an individual finger....

It seems hard for the monk to calm this guy down. He will never be able to keep his mind calm.

It wasn't as woo-filled as I expected. I am relieved. At the very end where they 'break up', it sounds like they are discussing the concept of qualia, which, by its very nature, is specific to an individual.

Secondo le analisi statistiche di Ludwig Boltzmann (XIX secolo) l'Universo che conosciamo è destinato a dissolversi in un grande disordine omogeneo, sostanzialmente privo di fenomeni organizzati riconoscibili. Ma questo non è tutto. Sapendo che lo sviluppo entropico è solo un fenomeno statistico, Boltzmann sapeva che esistono sempre fluttuazioni, e calcolava che dopo un tempo eccezionalmente lungo si può verificare (anzi, è inevitabile) un ritorno alle condizioni originali. Cioè l'Universo dovrebbe riprodursi nuovamente. Anche Poincaré, grandissimo matematico, per altra via era giunto alla medesima conclusione. Secondo il suo teorema di ricorrenza sempre alla fine alla fine di un tempo sterminato, l'Universo deve ritornare allo stato iniziale, perlomeno entro la approssimazione di differenze infinitesime. Il discorso è applicabile anche a sottoinsiemi più piccolo. Ad esempio, se una bottiglia sigillata contiene un litro di gas, e la mettiamo in comunicazione con un'altra bottiglia che contiene un litro di vuoto, il gas si diffonderà uniformemente dal primo recipiente ad entrambi. Tuttavia è possibile calcolare attraverso continue trasformazioni, dopo un tempo enormemente lungo (dai miei calcoli universitari mi pare emergesse tre volte la durata stimata di questo universo) comparirà nuovamente tutto il gas in una bottiglia sola: dopotutto si tratta semplicemente di un caso di ordine spaziale equiprobabile a tutti gli altri, che sono in numero molto maggiore, ma la disposizione iniziale non può essere esclusa dagli eventi che dovranno manifestarsi in futuro. Date queste premesse, la possibilità che un singolo organismo umano si riproduca nuovamente così com'era è possibile. In tal caso, mutantis mutandis, non può essere escluso pregiudizialmente il fenomeno della reincarnazione, che, anche senza prevedere la ricostituzione del medesimo corpo materiale trascorso, consiste nella riproducibilità di una certa coscienza di fondo, cioè una struttura psichica, che è sempre una forma di organizzazione con un suo ordine.

He is talking about modern buddhism which adapted with all modern knoweldge and psychological knowledge Original and true buddhism is a religion by which people are suppose to let go on their ego and simply be, waiting for the moment of their death But buddism evolved in different branches, depending people beleives and nations where it spread..that's why we talk about buddhismes in plurial

The doctor talks like David Cross lmao

The neuroscientist suffers from some hyperactive disorder. He needs some serious medication practice if he wants to be more effective in his craft.

Scientists try to learn about humans, by performing cruel experiments on innocent animals in a lab. Like that they will never ever understand compassion.

A word to the neuroscientist...please keep sentences short and put in more quality into your sentences else the interest in the conversation for the listener fades. One more thing..the more time you take to make your point and put forth the question, the lesser the time for the other person.

I have meditated for years. Reading Buddhist self help philosophy is beneficial, particularly when related by a western neuro specialist. The religious element is, not unlike all theocracy, is nonsense. New Scientist is a rag. Western science has vindicated meditation as a health benefit. Don't let these two put you off.

I seriously didn't liked the neuroscientist here. He speaks too much and he is disturbing the monk. Don't listen to this interview if you're sleeping and listening to get a good sleep. Better listen other videos of this monk.

When he says that Buddhism is no belief system it means exactly that. Buddhists don't do anything because Buddha said. We don't lie, steal, kill, intoxicate ourselves, indulge in adultery or use our words to hurt people because we know how we feel and how these things affects us. Buddha said don't follow me blindly just because I said it. If it agrees with you factually then accept it. It's like using your coon sense. See things as they really are. The yellow robes are for simplicity. Non attachments for worldly things. Monks wear yellow robes to show humbleness or grounded. You can leave the monastery anytime you want.
