  1. EPISODE 1

    E1: Meta Zen - Indefatigable

    This is a contemplative meditation for leaders and people in power.  Welcome to Meta Zen. This podcast is a mind-bending dive into philosophy curated over 2,500 years by pioneers of martial arts and meditation plus generations of practitioners who've continued to raise the bar.  But it’s more than that. This is a modernization of that wisdom, with the same level of investigation, directness and simplicity it was born with. In this episode, we'll set the stage for the episodes that follow. We'll look at how martial arts interacted with philosophy and how philosophy as a whole is pivoting right under our nose. In this episode, we'll touch on the following topics: Mixed Martial ArtsThe Art of War by Sun TzuJeet Kune Do by Bruce LeeConfucianismDaoismBuddhismShintoismMeta Zen is not Buddhism nor does it aspire to be a religion. It is consciousness in its purest form. Visit www.moxiefrontier.com for related resources.
