There are some pretty significant flaws in the methodology, in my opinion (namely the researcher's inadequate understanding of the whole "no-self" thing, and the lack of importance placed on meditation experience). But it's still worth checking out. I really enjoyed it.

Not that I'm aware of. But you can read the research they discuss online. https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/cogs.12590 …

Loved this episode and party because of the live audience format. I hope you'll do that again. Some really great questions from the audience.

I agree! Not to start a Harris-VBW fan war, but I thought the audience, on average, asked much more interesting questions than Sam Harris audiences tend to.

Thanks for this episode! Btw: worth to read, if you have’t, yet: Jan Willem van de Wetering / insights in a monks life: The Empty Mirror: Experiences in a Japanese Zen Monastery, 1971 Afterzen: Experiences of a Zen Student out on His Ear, 1999, last is pretty sobering and funny.
