Tibetan Buddhism and Modern Physics
Toward a Union of Love and Knowledge
By Vic Mansfield; Introduction by Lama Dalai
Templeton Press
Tibetan Buddhism and Modern Physics: Toward a Union of Love and Knowledge addresses the complex issues of dialogue and collaboration between Buddhism and science, revealing connections and differences between the two. While assuming no technical background in Buddhism or physics, this book strongly responds to the Dalai Lama’s “heartfelt plea” for genuine collaboration between science and Buddhism. The Dalai Lama has written a foreword to the book and the Office of His Holiness will translate it into both Chinese and Tibetan.

Humble before the Void
A Western Astronomer, his Journey East, and a Remarkable Encounter Between Western Science and Tibetan Buddhism
By Chris Impey; Foreword by Lama Dalai
Templeton Press
Humble before the Void also recounts Impey’s experiences outside the classroom, from the monks’ eagerness to engage in pick-up basketball games and stream episodes of hip American sitcoms to the effects on his relationship with the teenage son who makes the trip with him. Moments of profound serenity and beauty in the Himalayas are contrasted with the sorrow of learning that other monks have set themselves on fire to protest the Chinese oppression in Tibet.
