Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche
Talk at University of Toronto on "Supporting Resilience and Mental Health in the Age of AI".
The Buddha is a revolutionary whose Four Noble Truths remain applicable today. Buddhists believe that nothing is perfect nor certain, that everything is illusory, and that all sentient beings are Buddha. The Buddhist view can liberate us from false assumptions in this age of identity politics and obsession with self-improvement. Ethical conduct in Buddhism has three categories: avoiding unwholesome actions, developing wholesome activities and benefitting others, but ultimately includes anything that takes us closer to the truth. Always remember that wisdom or truth is the driver of the car, compassion is in the passenger seat and ethics is at the back.
