Zen In The Dunk features Geshe Tenzin Damoche, a monk, lecturer and coordinator of Sarah College of Higher Tibetan Studies, who believes not in blind faith, but in developing faith through wisdom and mindfulness, with sports as a road to universal compassion. It also features, Sangey Gyatso, a 20-year-old monk and philosophy student from the Institute of Buddhist Dialects who is a Stephen Curry fan, and plays the sport of basketball with one true passion. Apart from Geshe and Sangey, the video also focuses on the beliefs of Tsuiltrim Dorjee — the director of the Tibetan Children’s Village, who is of the opinion that the most important education is the one that instills a sense of love and compassion, and that of brotherhood.
