The Self Made Simple with Dr Monima Chadha

Aug 10, 2022

The ‘self’ in the Buddhist tradition is a complex and rich topic.

Walking us smoothly through potentially choppy water is Monash University's Dr Monima Chadha, an Associate Professor in Philosophy.

Monima’s research focuses on the cross-cultural philosophy of mind - and she's particularly interested in how the self overlaps with how we typically think of of self control and perception.

Discussing human feelings of desire, freedom and the Buddhist model of sharing our knowledge and gifts with the world - our conversation today mines deep into our understanding of ‘self’ in daily life. ------
