Aug 22, 2022

Chris discusses the contents of his excellent book, Philosophy of Psychedelics, wherein he defends a naturalistic account of the epistemic, therapeutic, and spiritual benefits of psychedelics, and mystical-type experiences of unselfing more generally.

You can find Chris at his website here: http://www.chrisletheby.com/ and on Twitter: https://twitter.com/chrisletheby

His book, the Philosophy of Meditation: https://global.oup.com/academic/product/philosophy-of-psychedelics-9780198843122?

and the Routledge Handbook on the Philosophy of Meditation, to which he contributed: https://www.routledge.com/Routledge-Handbook-on-the-Philosophy-of-Meditation/Repetti/p/book/9780367647469

I mentor meditation in Shinzen Young's Unified Mindfulness system. If that or any of my ambling thoughts in long-form are of interest to you, you can check out my own website: https://www.wystantbs.com/ and Twitter: https://twitter.com/WystanTBS

Thanks for watching and listening! May you be happy! May all beings everywhere be free from all suffering!
