The Institute of Dharma Studies is pleased to announce the Second Pali and Buddhist Conference, entitled Gavesanā: The Search for Knowledge, a two-day national conference to be held on 27–28 March 2026. This conference aims to use doctrinal analysis, meditative practice, historical development, and cultural expression to explore the dynamic and multifaceted processes of inquiry within Buddhism.

The conference seeks to provide a platform for scholarly exchange that is intellectually stimulating for critical engagement and offers diverse ways through which knowledge is sought, articulated, and transmitted in Buddhist traditions. Scholars and researchers in the fields of Buddhist Studies and Pali are cordially invited to present their papers and contribute to these discussions, thereby fostering a meaningful academic dialogue and reflective inquiry.
