Episode 96: The Particularities of Awakening
The Geeks of the Round Table are back, continuing our
discussion of Judy Lief's article Glimpses of Awakening. We speculate
on the language and culture surrounding enlightenment both here in the
West and in various countries in the East--including Japan, Burma, and
Thailand. We also speculate on how likely it is that people can have
initial breakthroughs in their practice (the first glimpses of
enlightenment) and how useful it would be to have an empirical,
longitudinal study that tracked these kind of breakthroughs. And if
you make it all the way to the end of this dialogue you'll hear
something that has a %99 chance of getting you enlightened, right there
on the spot. :::wink, wink:::
This is part 2 of a two-part series. Listen to part 1, The Buzz Lightyear Model of Enlightenment: To Infinity and Beyond.
