This two-parter is a fantastic summary of everything I’m obsessed with (and a few things I’m going to have to check out!)
I had a thought though: have you heard the Chogyam Trungpa dialogue with (iirc) Krishnamurti? Again, I may be misattributing the quote, but the philosopher argued with the Buddhist master that “in modern life, we already have enough to do. Why add meditation to stress about?”
It seems there’s a lot to “work on” and “fix” in our mutual obsessions… I wonder what your thoughts are about this?
Thanks Geoffe! Love connecting with other like minded people over these topics.
To the philosopher I'd say, I don't find any of my contemplative practices stressful or like a "should." It's often the best part of my day and I do it out of earnest desire vs. as a means to an end. The progressive rewards of expanded consciousness make it the most compelling way to spend time IMO.
Thank you for sharing all your important information.
Thank you Jeanne!
