In this episode of The Samadhi Podcast, David is joined for a fascinating conversation with his teacher, B. Alan Wallace. One of the world’s leading scholars, writers, and teachers of Tibetan Buddhism and its relation to science, Lama Alan was ordained by His Holiness the Dalai Lama and devoted fourteen years to training as a Tibetan Buddhist monk. He has written and translated more than 40 books and has been a leading voice in the dialogues and research between Buddhists and scientists. He is the founder and director of the Santa Barbara Institute for Consciousness Studies and the Centers for Contemplative Research.

In this conversation, Lama Alan very kindly offers us his thoughts on the nature and potentials of consciousness, the importance of shamatha and contemplative inquiry, and his vision for the Centers for Contemplative Research.

This fascinating conversation we're sure will be of benefit to many. 🙏🏻❤️
