Eötvös
Lóránd University of Sciences
Department
of Cultural Anthropology
Between 1997-98 I gave a
series of lectures at
the Department of Cultural Anthropology at the Eötvös
Lóránd University of Sciences, Faculty of Arts (ELTE BTK) in
Budapest . Although given the opportunity to give more lectures, due to
lack of financial compensation I was forced to give up the voluntary teaching.
Since
then I do occasionally give lectures on the request of the department, but only
as a visiting professor. I
do however give series of lectures on topics relating to cultural anthropology
at the Gate of Dharma Buddhist College (¬
go there), where with some of my colleagues
we have created a group of students and professional cultural anthropologists
specializing in Eastern cultures. We are hoping that with the professional
oriental training and good oriental language skills, many students can justly
contribute to the anthropological research of Eastern cultures in Hungary. There
have already been great contributions to the research of Hindu Tantric and
Chinese Taoist sects.
Series
of lectures relating to Cultural Anthropology:
I
have been on two expeditions to the Himalayas and North India both carrying interests
for Buddhist research and cultural anthropology.
|
My
first journey took me through Kashmir, Ladakh
(Western Tibet), and North India in 1995.
|
|
My second journey took me to Ladakh
& Zanskar (Western Tibet) again and to
Nepal in 1998.
|
|
|
|
I
have also studied some of the oasis in the Sahara in Northern Africa
near the Chott el Jerid in Tunisia in 1996.
