Podcast Overview

After a PhD in molecular biology & five years in biotech I woke up one day and thought, I need an adventure! So I bought a campervan, checked out some organic farms with the wonderful WWOOF scheme, and took some time to train in Bhakti Yoga. Please join me on this adventure as I interview thinkers from different fields of enquiry about fundamental questions of consciousness and reality.

David Egan - Suffering & Flourishing

Professor David Egan studied both analytic and continental philosophy,  with interests in aesthetics, ethics, the history of philosophy, and, increasingly, Buddhist philosophy. This diverse range of interests is unified by an interest in how we find and make meaning in our lives, and the image of ourselves that becomes manifest in this meaning-making activity. I’m especially interested in the moments where that self-image gets punctured and what those moments teach us about the possibility of human flourishing.
