John McWhorter has been practising meditation for 28 years. He says he was disappointed by the academic world when it came to wisdom and self-transcendence in transformation. But a friend recommended that he teach a course called buddhism and cognitive science. That led him to form an argument about how we can articulate meaning within our everyday lives.
