OxTalks is Changing
OxTalks will soon be transitioning to Oxford Events (full details are available on the Staff Gateway). A two-week publishing freeze is expected in early Hilary to allow all events to be migrated to the new platform. During this period, you will not be able to submit or edit events on OxTalks. The exact freeze dates will be confirmed as soon as possible.

"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.
