Congratulations to DLC Fellow @DaeHoulihan for receiving 2024 Glushko Prize for outstanding dissertation in Cognitive Sciences.
Dae Houlihan 🦋@DaeHoulihan

I'm deeply honored to receive one of this year's @cogsci_soc Glushko Dissertation Prizes. While I'm still in a state of disbelief about the award, what I can say in no uncertain terms, is that developing these ideas with @rebecca_saxe has been immensely formative and rewarding.

Dalai Lama@DalaiLama·
His Holiness’ Message for the New Year - 2024 On the occasion of the New Year, I would like to thank everyone who has sent me good wishes, and I offer my greetings to you all, brothers and sisters across the world. Despite the many challenges that we are facing today, I feel optimistic that with a growing appreciation of how interconnected we all are in the oneness of humanity, we can all work to lead more meaningful lives and create a better world. As human beings we share a common wish to be happy and free from pain. We are social animals who depend on others to survive. Therefore, as I often say, we should work for the benefit of others. If we cannot help them, we should at least make sure we do no harm. I have found that helping others is the best way of ensuring happiness and calm for ourselves. I also firmly believe that we can find peace in the world only when we find peace within. Every human being has the potential to cultivate inner peace, and by so doing to contribute to the peace of our global community. We must try to cultivate compassion and inner peace, regardless of our nationality or religion, we can contribute to the well-being and happiness of all mankind. If the last century was the century of violence, it is our responsibility to make this century the century of dialogue. Once again, I extend warm greetings to you all. I hope that you all enjoy an auspicious beginning to the new year, 2024. With prayers and good wishes, Dalai Lama

That the air we breathe, the water we drink, the forests and oceans which sustain countless life forms, and the climatic patterns that govern our weather systems all transcend national boundaries is a source of hope — no country can afford not to take action in this context.

We share this one planet, our only home so we have to take better care of it. We must cultivate compassion not only for our fellow human beings, but also for the other animals, birds and insects with whom we share the world. Concern for others is necessary for our survival.
