Today we look at the work of Keiji Nishitani. We examine Nihilism in a deeper way than we've ever covered on the podcast before. We talk about The Great Doubt. Zen Buddhism. Sunyata. The self as similar to structural linguistics. Hope you enjoy it! :)

Thank you so much for making the podcast possible. Got several great episodes lined up between now and the end of the year. Can't wait to get them to you. I'll get back to work. Be well.

I’m always late listening to these so who knows if you will see this but I LOVED this episode!! I have been heavily influenced by Zen Buddhism in my thinking and I definitely need to read Nishitani’s work. A wonderful book on zen that gives an incredibly practical and straight forward approach to these complex ideas is “Ordinary Wonder” by Charlotte Joko Beck. Just putting it out there for anyone who might be interested.

There is some question of the role of the body that seems to be unaccounted for in this. What if the loss of the self is the discovery of the body? I am curious about your thoughts on Wittgenstein’s discussion of the groundlessness of believing in On Certainty.
