DK, Aura, Kagyu and Storm split some atoms and crack open a few electrons in an exploration of Buddhism and science. Addressed in this issue: What were the core findings that led to the birth of quantum mechanics, and how does it compare to Buddhist ideas about the nature of reality? How can we square the classical Buddhist idea of indivisible dharmas with seemingly contradictory teachings about the illusory nature of samsara? And we talk about how both Buddhism and QM wrestle with the central conundrum of how observation seems to actually "create" the reality we see.

Aura, Storm King, Kagyu, and Dharmakirti continue the discussion from last week, and answer some audience questions.

The Dharma Squad takes a specific event as a launching point for one of our most wide-ranging discussions yet. Starting with a discussion on the supposed "suicide" of Jeffrey Epstein, we branch out to discuss what it means for the power elite, for the masses of people, and for us as followers of the Dharma.

Addressed in this episode: Was Epstein's murder "magic"; how can people find their way through the morass we are faced with; absurd reactions from our supposed leaders; we do NOT live in a society; the invulnerability cloak of the Dharma; and is Dharmakirti secretly a pre-Achaean inhabitant of the Greek peninsula?
