    Great conversation. Loved it. Love your zendo, too….although you need some chairs since not everyone can sit cross-legged, but it’s a beautiful space and I love that you’re doing it for the community. Really inspiring!

      Thanks Joan. The benches can be used as chairs with the feet on the ground and the butt on the cushion 🙂

    I love how you guys say "nirvana and other cookies are just a promise of the future" but 10 minutes later "oh death, well maybe if you die then everything will end and finally it will be okay, should I die or have a cup of coffee."

    Would your books "help" someone with no spiritual experience? I ask, for most i know.
    Interested in your work, and im most intrigued by your most recent.
    Whos next on the interview? Lol.?

    Life may be a nightmare, it may be a nice dream, it is nonetheless a dream. The pain is real and frequent but is that inherently bad? 🤔

    It sounds like this Benjamin Smythe believes that the lights are out after death. There’s nothing else. That’s it.

    Errr wait, German isn't the most beautiful language for you foreign people aswell??

    • @stefaniestrauss1182
      @stefaniestrauss1182 Před 7 měsíci +1

      Not at all 😂
      Italian is the most beautiful language. Even Brazilian Portugiese is smother and more expressiv then German in my opinion.
      Nothing against German people or the country. But the sound of the language... is not what I call beautiful.
