Content

Today we talk about whether it's possible to achieve not just freedom of the will, but freedom from the will. The technological enframing of reality from the perspective of Heidegger. Misconceptions about Mysticism. The ways that modern life prevents us from having more of a connection with Being. Some ways to start practicing mystical types of experiences using the resources that we have available to us. We do all of this via some points made by Simon Critchley in his new book On Mysticism: The Experience of Ecstasy.

Thank you so much more making this podcast possible. I could never do this without you. Happy Halloween. Be well.

My take away is that I'm becoming a mystic. Thanks Stephen!

Is it possible that these experiences are caused by a longing back to more communal ways of living? Being part of a given tribe or group and knowing that your are a part of something more than yourself? That God and/or the death of the ego is a way for us to feel out of ourselves for a moment when otherwise every inch of life is layed upon the shoulders of the individual?
