The Boise State University Aikido Club and the Eclipse Foundation present a public talk titled "Finding Meaning in Life" by Tulku Thubten Rinpoche at 7 p.m. on Friday, Nov. 8, in the Student Union Hatch Ballroom. A $6 donation or a $5 student/faculty donation is suggested at the door.

This will be Rinpoche’s first visit to Boise. He is a Nyingma Lama from Tibet, who has lived in the United States for over ten years and speaks fluent English. He currently resides in Hawaii and is the director of the Buddha Mandala Foundation. He is active in translating rare Tibetan texts, and is an avid writer and teacher of Tibetan calligraphy, poetry and astrology. His study of western culture, philosophy and religion provide him with the unique ability to express Buddhist doctrine in a way that can be easily understood to Western students of Buddhism, whether beginner or advanced.

This talk is an opportunity to meet an authentic Tibetan Lama and is suitable for anyone interested in spirituality, regardless of religion or for those interested in better understanding the Buddhist outlook on life that transcends sectarian views.

Rinpoche will also give a workshop on Nov. 9 and 10. For information on the content of the shop and how to register, email eclipse@rasa-designs.com.
