The first American to be ordained a Tibetan Monk by the Dalai Lama. Bob Thurman became a Tibetan monk at age 24. He's a professor of Indo-Tibetan Buddhist studies at Columbia University, and co-founder of Tibet House US, a nonprofit dedicated to the preservation and promotion of Tibetan civilization.
Thurman's focus is on the balance between inner insight and cultural harmony. In interpreting the teachings of Buddha, he argues that happiness can be reliable and satisfying in an enduring way without depriving others.
Oh and Yes... He's Uma Thurman's Dad ...:))))

Wed, August 13, 2008 - 2:04 PMIf I rememebr correctly, uma thurmans mom was married to tim leary at one point, and leary of course wrote a book called the psychedelic experience which was based on the tibetan book of the dead. She must have had an interesting childhood eh?
