Mystical Dimensions of Tsongkhapa with Thupten Jinpa (Full Talk)

Esteemed scholar and author Thupten Jinpa, Ph.D. explores the intersection of mysticism and theory in the life and teachings of revered Tibetan Buddhist teacher, Tsongkhapa. Tsongkhapa was a key figure in the Ganden Renaissance and a great contributor to the evolution of Tibetan Buddhist thought. Thupten Jinpa’s book, Tsongkhapa: A Buddha in the Land of Snows, is considered the quintessential biography on this great master. In his talk, Jinpa discusses the relevance of Tsongkhapa’s teachings today and explores the often-overlooked mystical dimension that was a significant part of Tsongkhapa’s life and work.
