  • Ep18 - Why I left engineering, and the free will of not knowing

    In this episode I share some reflections on why I left the science and engineering streams and entered into philosophy instead. They are foolishly grasping for precision with hands that are controlled by  metaphysical spontaneity. I then finish off the episode with an illustration of one very interesting realisation on the relationship between free will and not knowing absolute objective facts.

  • Ep14 - Why no dinosaurs in the revealed scriptures?
    In this episode I interact with the question of why we don't hear of dinosaurs in the revealed scriptures; specifically the vedic scriptures (shastra). I talk about what is shastra exactly; is it fixed and unchanging or is it living and constantly being retold in ever-fresh ways? I also address the general point of needing shastra to match up with empirical evidences, how much of that should we expect, and whether or not it would actually be a good thing for revealed scriptures to match up exactly.

  • Ep12 - Two Types of Enlightenment
    In this episode I share with you my perspective on two types of enlightenment. The first being a glimpse that is given to us by the explanation of another, an enlightenment person, which inspires confidence within us, but is not continuous. The second is penetrating and persistent, and comes from realignment at the deepest level. This second type gives unshakable, clarity and understanding. I hope it meets you well.

  • Ep10 - “I am the brain”
    In this episode I share some thoughts on the popular concept that a person is no more than a product of the brain and how this concept actully leads any serious thinker back to the monistic or "oneness" conception taught most commonly in the eastern traditions.
