Ebben az epizódban
PART 1 In 1953 Aldous Huxley looked at three flowers and saw what Mahākāśyapa saw when the Buddha held up the lotus on Vulture Peak — the tathatā, the suchness, the bare reality of things before the mind's reducing valve filters it back into the ordinary.
In Part 1 we follow the thread from Henri Bergson's reducing valve philosophy through Huxley's mescaline afternoon to Robin Carhart-Harris's 2014 neuroimaging at Imperial College London.
And a question: the Tibetan tradition had been working with this same mechanism for a thousand years before any of them — not describing the valve from the outside, but dissolving it from the inside.
That question is where Part 2 begins.
