Mingyur Rinpoche is a Tibetan lama and world-renowned meditation teacher who combines traditional Buddhist wisdom with modern neuroscience. As a long-time practitioner, he began meditating as a child under the guidance of his father, Tulku Urgyen Rinpoche. Mingyur overcame severe panic attacks through meditation – an experience that now informs his teachings. He leads the global Tergar Meditation Community and collaborates with scientists like Richard Davidson to study the effects of meditation on the brain. His bestselling books, including In Love with the World: A Monk's Journey Through the Bardos of Living and Dying explore how practice can transform suffering into freedom and joy.
