In today's episode I had the pleasure of speaking to Nadia Asparouhova - x.com/nayafia, a writer and researcher, and the author of Working in Public: The Making and Maintenance of Open Source Software (Stripe Press).
We discussed how after a life of atheism, transcendental experiences like childbirth and the Jhanas, an ancient attention-based meditation technique led her to believe there is more to life than matter. We also discussed the surprising connection between meditation and Mr. Miyagi, from the movie Karate Kid.
