Join Marieke van Vugt, University of Groningen member of TECT, and expert monks of Sera Jey monastery for an online winter school from January 25-29, 2021 on Nalanda Debate.

​In an era where new knowledge is produced at unprecedented rates and at every stage of its production is challenged by misinformation, skills of critical analysis have never been more valuable. Nalanda Debate provides a formal structure for researchers to engage in a constructive dialogue which brings an extra degree of clarity to an investigation into any given aspect of our world. 

Utilized by Tibetan scholar-contemplatives for the past thousand years to investigate the functions of cognition and perception, and to ultimately probe the very nature of reality, it is a tried and true method of enhancing our critical thinking capacities.
Guest lecturers include Jeffrey Hopkins and Jose Cabazon.

‘One unique thing about the Nalanda Tradition is that we extensively use a logical approach… Single-pointed meditation is good, but it is even better to do analytical meditation and engage in discussion, debate.’

​- H.H. the Dalai Lama, Dharamsala, Dec. 9, 2020
