Navigating Awakening and Activism in Buddhism

Wystan Bryant-Scott is a Buddhist meditation teacher who has spent roughly two and half years of his life practising in an intensive residential monastic setting. He has studied under teachers in multiple Buddhist traditions, including Theravada, Vajrayana, Zen, and Dzogchen, and is a certified teacher of previous podcast guest Shinzen Young’s Unified Mindfulness system. Wystan is also on the Board of Advisors of the Qualia Research Institute. I’ve been continually impressed by the depth and clarity of Wystan’s realisation so I’m glad to share my recent conversation with him with you today.
