New Areas for the Future
The K. J. Somaiya Centre for Buddhist Studies is looking to develop academic ties with other institutions in the areas of:
-
Abhidhamma Studies
-
Buddhist Philosophy
-
Buddhist Art & Archaeology
-
East Asian and Tibetan Studies
-
Meditation – Texts, Tradition and Practice
New Initiatives:
The special lectures by scholar-members of the Sangha, teaching from scriptural texts have been well attended. These will be a regular feature of the institute"s academic calendar.
KJSCBS will organize seminars and workshops to explore inter-disciplinary areas such as psychology, education, personal development, and business ethics. These will provide a platform for sharing the Buddhist perspectives with academicians as well as people engaged in those fields.
