This is a special episode with Daniel Thorson β who I initially came across through his super podcast called 'Emerge' and later learned that he was living as a full-time monastic at the Monastic Academy in Vermont β where after a series of conversations, he persuaded me to come and sit for a 10-day retreat β which I just returned from myself recently.
I found this was an immensely rich conversation, and I'm grateful to Daniel for opening up about some of the experiences he had recently during 73 days of solitude and silence (which he described as the most profound experience of his life) β during which he had some brushes with insanity but emerged (no pun intended) on the other side with some very hard-won insights to share.
