In celebration of the first Internation Mediation Day on 21^st December 2024, our college organized a series of six extended meditation and mind-training sessions for medical students and faculty members, from December 16th to 21st. The main goal of these sessions was to promote mental well-being and help students and teachers to bring deeper understanding of one’s thoughts and emotions, fostering a positive mental attitude that can benefit both personal and professional growth. The sessions were led by Geshe Tenzin Celon la, a Buddhist philosophy teacher from The Dalai Lama Institute for Higher Educationin Bengaluru. He shared his profound knowledge into Buddhist mental training methods and guided students through meditation techniques based on the revered text, “The Eight Verses of Mind Training” by Langri Thangpa. This workshop was a huge success.
