OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
"Songs of Spiritual Realization": An evening with Khentrul Lodrö Thayé Rinpoche
Called doha in Sanskrit, these songs spontaneously burst forth from realized Buddhist masters of India and Tibet without any thought or deliberation over composition. They simply spill from the mouths of such masters as an expression of their realization. Such songs of wisdom contain profound messages about the nature of reality and typically arise in metered verse in a variety of melodies. Those who hear the words will understand the meaning according to their capacity, and the songs will lead each listener to their own insights and wisdom.
