What is a Good Life?
This might well serve as a biography of the 'conclusion thus far' of two decades of undivided human attention
(this is a 4-minute segment of the long-form podcast which is located below)
If someone were to set out with the task of capturing the sightedness with which Soul Biographies have been made, I imagine it would be quite some task. However, I believe this podcast might in many ways have done just this.
I did not remember what had been said, but on listening back to the recording I recognize it to possess the quality of the biography of all of this. Of the conclusion thus far of two decades of undivided human attention. And for those who have followed this Inner View work for years, this podcast may be time well spent.
Thank you to Mark McCartney and his ‘What Is A Good Life Podcast’ for the atmosphere in which to speak freely.
At some stage soon I may attempt to make a number of shorter pieces out of this long-form podcast. I believe it may be a useful endeavor.
