Buddhist Geeks Episode 120: The Mystery of the Mind: Ten Zen Questions

I loved Susan Blackmore's The Meme Machine, so I am looking forward to eventually reading her new book, Ten Zen Questions. This week, the Buddhist Geeks talk with her about the new book.

Episode 120: The Mystery of the Mind: Ten Zen Questions

Dr. Susan Blackmore--a psychologist and long-time Zen practitioner--shares with us the discoveries that she made while writing her latest book, Ten Zen Questions. Listen in to find out what she discovered after many, many hours of asking questions, such as: "Am I conscious now?", "What was I conscious of a moment ago?", & "There is no time. What is memory?"

Also, listen in to hear how she feels this type of exploration, often called Koan training in the Zen Buddhist tradition, can illuminate and inform the traditional scientific study of consciousness.
