Eujohn: It's a meaningful pleasure to be in this conversation, and especially in this conversation with eujohn. The monastic academy vermont is about a ten year old institution. And the way i like to frame its mission is that it's an inquiry into what does a wisdom institution need to be to meet the demands of a planetary crisis for western civilization. Am shinzan young has done a lot of work to kind of modernize and make palatable the world mystical traditions to the western mind.
John Vervaeke speaks with Seishin and myself about the ecology of practices we are exploring in the Willow Intensive. This was originally recorded on The Stoa.
This episode includes a brief overview of the Harmony model and the five aspects we've been training to harmonize. We discuss the obstacles and opportunities of birthing a new kind of wisdom institution in the modern world, and the necessity of having an ecology of practices to adequately transform the human mind during a time of planetary crisis (and much more). The conversation ends with a Q&A.
We are offering two online courses for those who would like to explore these practices more deeply:
