Exploring the Phenomena of Meditative Powers

Daniel is an advanced meditator and controversially, a self-described Arahant, or one who has become fully "enlightened" in Buddhist terms. Daniel wrote Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha: An Unusually Hardcore Dharma Book, widely regarded as one of the most complete meditation books ever written. In this book, Daniel lays out in very rational and practical terms the exact steps that can lead to the profound transformations he has attained. In this episode of Dharma Junkie, Daniel breaks down the Theravada stages of insight and gives his take on stream entry, Nibbana, and more.
