Podcast 12: Vipassana
This is a very loaded pod! With 3 guests and a description of the 2500 year meditation technique of Vipassana, there’s quite a lot of content to get through!
Vipassana meditation essentially teaches the road to enlightenment through a disciplined approach to observing reality. I had been keen to give this a bash since hearing Sam Harris was a keen meditator himself and a big fan of this type in particular, so when I found myself in the homeland of Buddha himself, Nepal, I thought when in Rome and signed up to a 10 day silent retreat.
This podcast explores the basics of what Vipassana is and gets the post-silence reactions of:
Dharma (19:50) a veteran meditator and all round G,
Nate (44:40) adrenaline junkie and fellow meditation first timer, with quite the imagination and,
Roy (1:02:45) an ex Israeli commander turned journalist with an eye for meditation.
Had great fun chatting to these guys and putting this one together!
As ever please send in your reviews, were always all ears if you’ve got any recommendations for the pod!
