About this listen

 How does meditation generate psychological benefits, and can deep meditative experiences open new philosophical insight? In this episode, Associate Professor Bronwyn Finnigan (ANU) and Dr Leesa Davis (Deakin) explore Buddhist approaches to meditation, non-dual philosophies, and the aesthetic and contemplative language of Japanese dry gardens. We also talk about the joy of teaching non-Western philosophy to undergraduates and how it can help revive the philosophical imagination in Australian universities.
