Notes on Being Nothing - A Conversation on Awakening

About this episode

A conversation with author J about the experience of awakening and the insights from his book.

This is a conversation with the author of Notes on Nothing - The Joy Of Being Nobody. The author - J - experienced a shift that prompted him to write his excellent book, which describes awakening beautifully. I read it before and after my own kensho - and invited the author on to discuss what a shift is like from both our perspectives.
