This conversation between film director Khyentse Norbu, known in the Buddhist world as Dzongsar Khyentse Rinpoche, and renowned neuroscientist Dr. Richard Davidson followed the world premiere of Looking for a Lady with Fangs and a Moustache as part of the Brainwave series at the Rubin Museum of Art.
Set and filmed on location in Kathmandu, Looking for a Lady with Fangs and a Moustache is an existential mystery drama that tells the story of Tenzin, a modern Tibetan entrepreneur, utterly skeptical of ancient, mystical beliefs, who is suddenly haunted by frightening dreams and hallucinations. A sage tells him these are omens of his imminent death. Tenzin has seven days to save his life, leading to an unconventional, sacred journey into feminine energy.
Following the film, Khyentse Norbu and neuroscientist Richard Davidson discussed the mindsets at play in the film from both spiritual and scientific viewpoints.
