Khyentse Foundation is pleased to welcome Dr. Catherine Dalton of 84000: Translating the Words of the Buddha and Rangjung Yeshe Institute on Saturday October 5, 2024 at 10:00 am Eastern Daylight Time.
In contemporary academia, the study of Buddhism and the translation of Buddhist texts are often treated as disciplines separate from the practice of Buddhism as a path to awakening. In this talk, Catherine will explore how integrating the study of Buddhism and the translation of its texts with committed experiential training can lead to a more effective and fulfilling approach to both learning and translation. She will discuss how, by following her teachers’ guidance and drawing inspiration from both ancient and modern scholars and translators, she has personally benefited from approaching the study and translation of the Buddhist teachings as an integral part of her own Buddhist practice.
