<description>
<![CDATA[
Join us this week as we speak with Dr. Peter Grossenbacher, director of the Consciousness Laboratory at Naropa University, about his research on meditation and contemplative spirituality.  Along with finding out about the specific work that Dr. Grossenbacher is engaged in in the Consciousness Lab, listen in as we ask we ask such questions as: Can awareness be defined through empirical methods?  And if so, what methods might those be?  And finally, can the emphasis on objectivity found in much of mainstream science be applied to subjective research?  This is part 1 of a two-part series.  Listen to part 2 How Did Descartes Die?.

<title><![CDATA[BG 086: How Did Descartes Die?]]></title>
<description>
<![CDATA[
Join us this week as we speak with Dr. Peter Grossenbacher, director of the Consciousness Laboratory at Naropa University, about the difference between Eastern and Western modes of inquiry, sensory awareness practice, and of the importance of contemplative education.  Peter ties together the Eastern and Western schools of thought by pointing out that they are both loosely interested in the empirical, or what is observable.  He also explains the sensory awareness practice that he guides students through, and in our first guided practice here on Buddhist Geeks, leads us through a few minutes of sensory awareness practice.  We finish our discussion with Peter touching briefly on the role of "contemplative education," or in an education that is attempting to bring together conceptual and non-conceptual modes of learning.  This is part 2 of a two-part series.  Listen to Part 1, The Consciousness Laboratory.

<description>
<![CDATA[
In this segment, Genpo Roshi goes into an eloquent description of the role that Big Mind process, zazen, and koan practice can play in a more whole and integrated Zen training. He also touches on the develop of the spiritual practitioner, and his understanding of how one can progress through this developmental territory.

<title><![CDATA[BG 056: Insight Dialogue: Extending Meditation into Mutuality]]></title>
<description>
<![CDATA[
What would it be like if we were able to extend the silence &amp; clarity of the meditative mind into our relationships?  Would this impact how we listen, what we say, and even how we perceive reality?  Gregory Kramer, teacher of a unique interpersonal meditation called Insight Dialogue, claims that it does this and much more.  In this dialogue we find out about the specifics of the Insight Dialogue practice, covering each of the six steps of this practice (see below), as well as exploring what it's like to be on a retreat where both individual and interpersonal contemplation takes place. The six steps of Insight Dialogue: 1. Pause 2. Relax 3. Open 4. Trust Emergence 5. Listen Deeply 6. Speak the Truth This is Part 2 of a two-part series.  Listen to Part 1, Interpersonal Meditation - Awakening as Relational Beings.

<title><![CDATA[BG 072: Zen Masters: Dressing the Donkey with Bells and Scarves]]></title>
<description>
<![CDATA[
Long-time American Zen practitioner Stuart Lachs has spent some 40 years practicing Zen.  First with Suzuki Roshi at the Tassajara Monastery in California and then with Eido Shimano Roshi, Walter Nowick, and finally with Ch'an Master Sheng-yen.  In all of these communities Stuart ran up against strange and unfortunate dynamics playing out between the Zen Master and their communities.  After getting heavily involved with the academic and sociological study of Zen, Stuart began seeing some of the cultural (and invisible) reasons that these communities would falter, whether from sexual scandals, the intense vanity of the teacher, or worse.   In this episode he shares with us some of the ways that the legitimacy, authority & power of the Zen Master are spread through the Zen institution, and how these sometimes ridiculous ideals are accepted without questions from many intelligent, well-meaning, people.  If you're a Buddhist practitioner of any sort, you won't want to miss this conversation!  This is part 1 of a two-part series.  Listen to part 2, The Darker Side of Zen: Institutions Defining Reality.

<title><![CDATA[BG 060: Geeks of the Round Table (tm)]]></title>
<description>
<![CDATA[
The Geeks of the Round Table&#153; continue their discussion on the Big Mind process and the criticisms from Zen teacher Brad Warner, in his article Big Mind&#153; is a Big Load&#153; of Horse Shit (link goes to SuicideGirls, an alt porn site).  The geeks focus on these criticisms which include charging for the dharma, the nature of an authentic transmission, trademarking Dharma practice, ethical issues with marketing the dharma, and issues of confusing personal psychology with transpersonal states and stages.  Hold on to your seat and be prepared to be whisked into a world of geeky and fun banter between these young (and foolhardy) practitioners. This is Part two of a two-part series.  Listen to Part 1: McZen: A Double Satori with Cheese.

<description>
<![CDATA[
The Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche is the only Rinpoche we know who owns and uses a Blackberry!  Rinpoche shares with us the different ways that he has adopted modern technology into the work that he does and into his teaching style.  We also speak with Rinpoche about his most recent book, which explores the Bardo teachings, Mind Beyond Death.  Rinpoche explains to us that death, one of the greatest sources of suffering, gives us a palpable opportunity to live well.  He also points out that in terms of the trained mind, both death and life are but two sides of the same coin.  Both can bring about enlightenment.   This is part 2 of a three-part series.  Listen to part 1, Analytical Meditation: Going Beyond Coffee Table Dharma
