On the Zensylvania podcast, your host Eric Adriaans explores Motorcyle Zen, Tai Chi and other activities that result in what he calls the Zensylvania state of mind. Zensylvania was inspired by three books: Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Alfred North Whitehead's Process and Reality and The Zen Teachings of Homeless Kodo. So you can count on a whole lot of time spent on those books. But along the way, the podcast will include original fiction, poetry, philosophy, interviews and any content that fits the bill.
The Zensylvania Podcast is undergoing changes. Please stay tuned!

Gumption Traps and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance Part Two (Episode 29)
In this episode, Eric reads and reviews several passages from Chapter 26 of Robert Pirsig's Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance. The theme of the chapter is Pirsig's concept of "Gumption Traps".
Do you engage the technologies and information available in our ever-more-complicated times by maintaining your gumption or do you give up that commitment to self-reliance and individual sovereignty and join the others in defeated, grid-locked funeral processions that shuffle back and forth, but ultimately go nowhere?
