There's no real Buddhism in there anymore... with Richard Shankman
What happens when meditation moves beyond technique into pure freedom? In this episode of The Future of Wellness, Richard Shankman — accomplished meditation teacher, cofounder of the Sati Center for Buddhist Studies, and author of The Experience of Samadhi — shares how the heart of practice is about direct experience, not rigid systems.We explore the transformative depth of samadhi (jhana) states, often misunderstood yet central to awakening. Richard reflects on decades of practice, his work with advanced meditators on healing and purification, and the idea that form itself carries an essence we know as love. He closes with a simple, profound invitation: open the heart and let go.In this conversation:The true meaning and role of samadhi in liberationMoving beyond methods to discover direct freedomHealing and purification in advanced meditation practiceLove as the essence of manifestationA simple daily practice for lasting transformationLearn more about Richard Shankman: www.richardshankman.orgEnjoyed the episode?
