    #26: From Crisis to Meaning with Shinzen Young

    Welcome to the Season One Finale of the Soulspace Podcast! On this episode, we talk to Shinzen Young about mindfulness within the context of the modern meaning crisis. Shinzen is a renowned meditation teacher and neuroscience research consultant. We met with him in Toronto after he had just finished leading a meditation retreat. Shinzen first became fascinated with Asian culture as a Jewish teenager growing up in Los Angeles in the 1950s. As he likes to describe himself: “I’m a Jewish-American Buddhist teacher who got turned on to comparative mysticism by an Irish-Catholic priest and who has developed a Burmese-Japanese fusion practice inspired by the spirit of quantified science.” We discuss happiness, enlightenment and his current new project which involves using brain stimulating technology that may dramatically accelerate meditation gains. He is the author of The Science of Enlightenment: How Meditation Works.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/07/21/episode26   'You Are Simply', Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/5Ph3oJ125sc   Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod https://twitter.com/soulspacepod   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.

    #25: Raising Consciousness Through Sound with Alexandre Tannous

    Alexandre Tannous has been active as a musician, educator, composer, and an ethnomusicologist. For the past 13 years he has been researching the therapeutic and esoteric properties of sound. He has developed a protocol he calls “Sound Meditation” which uses specific sounds to help people tap into the self-healing capacities that we all possess. We discuss Gnosticism, the physics of sound, and how music is weaponized and used to hijack consciousness for religious and capitalistic agendas. Alexandre holds a Bachelor of Music in Theory and Composition, a Master of Arts degree in Music Education as well as a Master of Arts and a Master of Philosophy degrees in Ethnomusicology from Columbia University. His works are frequently performed in the United States, Europe, and in Asia. He currently works as a sound therapist, researcher and educator.   Shownotes http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/2019/07/14/episode25 (http://www.soulspacepodcast.com/?p=1919)   Destroy Yourself, Poem by Thal Mohammed Music by Hoiking Fung https://youtu.be/fqhRJ-ys9_0 (https://youtu.be/fqhRJ-ys9_0)   Connect info@soulspacepodcast.com https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/ (https://www.instagram.com/soulspacepod/) https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod (https://www.facebook.com/soulspacepod) https://twitter.com/soulspacepod (https://twitter.com/soulspacepod)   About Adrian Choo & Thal Mohammed explore modern spirituality and life's profound questions with fellow seekers.
