Episode 6
This 6th Legacy Edition of Wise Talkers features a 1979 radio show in which I was interviewed about meditation on KNCO in Grass Valley, California. I was teaching meditation classes at the time. It’s an interesting look back on how meditation was viewed 45 years ago, and how I taught and practiced it in a practical, ‘demystified’ way.
With questions from the host, KNCO’s Mark Johnson, and four callers, we discussed: how meditation compares to day-dreaming; how it can be used for planning and decision-making; group meditation; physical and mental benefits of meditation; children and meditation; and the pros and cons of using a mantra.
The 1979 interview closes with me answering a caller’s question about what I had personally gained from meditating.
In the Epilogue, I discuss future podcast plans, including likely taking a break through the November election to focus on my new political blog, Whole New World.
