Tibetan Buddhist Cultural Context and Restorative Justice in the Dalai Lama Incident w/ Sujatha Baliga

This Restorative Justice Life

Have you ever caught yourself making snap judgments based on a video or news story without understanding the full context? Join us as we discuss the recent incident involving His Holiness of the Dalai Lama and a young boy, and examine the need to pause and educate ourselves before making judgments. Our guest, Sujatha Baliga, brings an insightful perspective as a survivor of child sexual abuse, a public defender of the accused, and a Buddhist practitioner with audiences with the Dalai Lama.
In this eye-opening conversation, we explore the impact of the media storm and criticism that resulted from the incident, and the importance of understanding cultural context. We'll also discuss ways of healing from sexual violence, restorative justice, and how we can create a more restorative and healing environment. With Sujatha's guidance, we navigate through this complex issue and offer valuable insights. Don't miss this critical conversation around elders and young people interacting in ways that are not conducive to current standards.
