An Interview with Daniel Ingram Part One

If you’ve ever wondered what happens after you die, how the world looks when you’re enlightened, or can’t understand why you’re spending all this time meditating but still seem to get anxious and angry, then you absolutely, positively, 100% have to tune into this episode of the Monk on a Motorbike podcast

This time around I’m talking to former critical care doctor, Daniel Ingram, who very controversially claimed he was an arahat, or fully enlightened, a number of years ago.

Here he talks about how being enlightened isn’t all its cracked up to be, the uproar his announcement caused, why he did it, magical powers, life after death, psychedelics and pretty much anything else connected with this long and winding spiritual path we are all walking

Daniel knows more about meditation and other spiritual practices than practically anybody I’ve met and he’s articulate and funny and explains things in a way that are really easy to relate to

We ended up talking for a long time and I’ve divided the episode into four parts so do yourself a favour, whether you’re stuck at home on lockdown during Coronavirus  or just wondering what the f*ck is going on in these dark days, use your time well and  tune into some of this awesome wisdom!
