Tue, 5 Jul 2005 14:00:00 EST Say 'Om' and call me in the morning

Western medicine has a lot to learn from the East, according to David Shlim, author of Medicine & Compassion: A Tibetan Lama's Guidance for Caregivers. In 1979, then 29-year-old Shlim was a newly minted emergency room doctor in Portland, Ore., with a passion for mountain climbing. His hobby took him to Nepal, where—after a few three-month stints—he decided to stay for 15 years practicing travel medicine, treating trekkers and diplomats for such things as diarrhea and other infectious diseases. While there, Shlim also volunteered once a week at a Tibetan monastery, where he began exploring the Buddhist concept of compassion. Now back in the United States, Shlim hopes his new book will help western doctors incorporate compassion into their practice. From July 7 to July 9, Shlim will cochair a program on compassion and western medicine at the Harvard School of Public Health. The main presenter will be Tibetan Buddhist teacher Chokyi Nyima Rinpoche.
