What do we experience when we look inside? Where do we place our confidence? Do we believe that we have mind? In this episode Professor Thurman discusses the power of questioning, the necessity of digging deeper in order to understand mind and its power.
The episode is an excerpt from the the “Buddha and Yogis” retreat at Menla Mountain Retreat, taught by David Swenson, John Campbell & Robert Thurman on July 31, 2015.
