1:32:40Now PlayingOn this episode, we interview John Vervaeke. Speaking to the meaning crisis John's work is centered around bridging the gap between science and spirituality. He talks to us about the importance of psycho-technologies as cognitive tools that can help us overcome self-deception and move towards wisdom. We also navigate the world of altered-states and transformative experiences. John has been with the University of Toronto since 1994 as an Assistant Professor teaching courses in the Psychology department, Cognitive science program, and the intersections between Buddhism and Mental Health. He has won numerous teaching awards. John is the first author of the book "Zombie in Western Culture: A 21st Century Crisis". You can find his most recent series on YouTube titled "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis."
