How quickly will people give up their rights for safety? Would you let a chip be implanted in your body that stopped all theft and maybe crime in general? 

Also, Barbara McHugh stops by to talk about her new book Bride of the Buddha. It's a fascinating story that is a mix of of fiction and non fiction that tells the story of Yasodhara who also sacrificed a lot to help the man who would become Buddha. In fact, she might have played a deeper role in women's rights and acceptance within  Buddhism than we ever knew.
