Long-term Retreat, with David Lassiter
Long-term Retreat, with David Lassiter
David spent over 18 months on retreat in a 5 year period in the Theravada Buddhist tradition. In this conversation we cover a wide range of stuff, from the Progress of Insight, to the emotional turmoil that can emerge to the benefits of this kind of intensive practice.
There isn’t a lot of content available about long-term retreat experiences; this could be particularly helpful or interesting for people interested in the Theravadan path, the progress of insight and Mastering the Core Teachings of the Buddha.

The episode in which we discuss societal sexual shadows and eros as being the key to some of the deepest spirituals experiences.
I also describe the experience of receiving a VR blow-job. There is much giggling in the discussion of it but it leads to some very interesting explorations on gender dynamics and sexuality.
