Very excited and happy to announce that we'll be having a Death Sangha at The Alembic on the Saturday before Halloween. It's special because this is the first IN PERSON ONLY Death Sangha since the pandemic began. deathsangha.eventbrite.com

Happy to announce that my (very overdue) Deconstructing Yourself interview with @vervaeke_john is in the final stages of production. Should be done by the end of the week, at the latest.

In which I talk to @vervaeke_john about revelance realization, how we make meaning, meditation, and what makes a person wise. deconstructingyourself.com/john-vervaeke-…

At long last, a new episode of Deconstructing Yourself: the brilliant Shamil Chandaria on Meditation and the Bayesian Brain. Predictive Processing, AI, the phenomenal self model, and more. Time to reset your top level priors. :) deconstructingyourself.com/meditation-and…

Come sit with me and the crew IRL in February. Looking forward to seeing you there!

"But look, right now, in your own experience and see the loving quality of awareness which comes from its openness,& rejects nothing. It accepts and welcomes everything. It is utterly welcoming, utterly accepting, utterly loving. Notice that now." deconstructingyourself.com/the-freedom-of…

Don't forget that I'm leading a weekend retreat IRL at Berkeley Alembic ⚗️ in about 2 weeks. Would love to see you there. You can sign up here: eventbrite.com/e/a-winter-ret…

Latest Deconstructing Yourself episode features @kenmcleod talking about his new book The Magic of Vajrayana—particularly about the tripartite practice structure of guru, deity, and protector in Vajrayana. deconstructingyourself.com/the-magic-of-v…
