I'm really enjoying these talks with Ben. I grew up in (and still live in) the South of Johannesburg. Hearing him talk about KTV & growing up here with an interest in 'the woo' is so relatable.
Great to hear this interview because deeply resonate with my experience. Nice to know this things are evolving in our society. Thank you for inviting him and sharing this.
Another amazing scholar practitioner of tantra that would be great to interview is Christopher Wallis. He’s not a Buddhist but Shiva Tantrika though. I don’t know if you interview only Buddhist people.
Dr. Ben refers to "what that type of training" did for him. He mentions the book by Crowley but doesn't really pronounce the name fully. "Libera O" something like that. Any ideas? And does the book by Franz Bardon also have exercises to help increase mystical experience?
