Curtis White – New Book “Transcendent: art and dharma in a time of collapse”

Published 3 years, 8 months ago
Description

Curtis White has been writing for his whole life, fiction and non-fiction.  His most recent book is Transcendent art and dharma in a time of collapse.

“In Transcendent, celebrated cultural critic Curtis White, asks what Buddhism will look like in the future. Do we want a secular Buddhism that looks like corporations and neuroscience? Or do we want a Buddhism that still provides refuge from the debased world of money and things? Transcendence is not about magic realms where spirits fly about; the world is, as Shunryu Suzuki  put it, its own magic. We only need to reclaim it and reclaim our humanity while we’re at it.” –MHPBooks.com

Baruch and Curtis discuss the book and the questions it brings up and seeks to address.

Music by: Keola Beamer, Jethro Tull, Adrian Belew, George Harrison & Leon Russell, Joan Zen, Mercedes Bahleda & Klaus Helbrecht, and 3 Trees
