YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWe created this video in partnership with Unlikely Collaborators.
Want to know if someone is compassionate? It’s identifiable in more ways than one.
Philosopher Meghan Sullivan, PhD, Buddhist scholar and former monk Thupten Jinpa, PhD, and meditation teacher Sharon Salzberg explore love through neuroscience, philosophy, and lived practice. They discuss society’s flaw in mistaking kindness for weakness, how neuroscience has proven to identify compassion in brain scans, and how expanding Aristotle’s Love Ethic can change our society for the better.
