Centre for Bhutan & GNH Studies is pleased to announce an International Conference on the theme ‘Science, Mindfulness, and Meditation’ from 3-6 June 2025 in Thimphu, Bhutan to present intersections on contemplative practices and scientific research. The conference will be a rigorous and pathbreaking gathering of philosophers, meditation masters, spiritual practitioners, chief abbots, scientists of various streams including neuroscientists, and meditation and mindfulness professionals to exchange their profound knowledges on the important subject. It will be the 5th such conference which usually focuses on Vajrayana. As meditation, mindfulness and mind transformation techniques exist equally in other traditions, the conference can benefit from their presentations, and it seeks a good number of presentations from other secular, religious, and indigenous traditions (such as those of Africa, Latin America, Australia, and Euro-Asia).
The details of the conference and conditions for registration are given below, and you can access them in different languages
