MAJOR DONATION MAKES WAY FOR “MINDFULNESS”
On Wednesday 9 March, the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences Research Centre for East-West Cultural and Economic Studies hosted an inaugural public discussion forum on “Mindfulness”. Chaired by the Dharma Master, Heng Chih and supported by the Centre’s generous benefactor, Mr Alan Chan, the seminar on “Mindfulness” was attended by a broad spectrum of the Bond community including general staff, academics and external guests.
A number of key concepts were explored including “Using the mind to seal the mind” and “If it is not proper then do not look at it, do not listen to it and do not speak it” before a lively philosophical discussion ensued that was moderated by Heng Chih and Alan Chan.
This open forum also provided an opportunity to recognise the generous contribution made by Mr Alan Chan to the Centre and will hopefully be a cornerstone for future events of a similar nature run by the Faculty and the Centre for East-West Cultural and Economic Studies.
