Listen "Pankaj Mishra — The Buddha in the World"
Episode Synopsis
A few years ago, journalist Pankaj Mishra pursued the social relevance of the Buddha’s thought across India and Europe, Afghanistan and America. He emerged with a startling critique of Western political economy that is even more resonant today as he pursued the social relevance of the Buddha’s core questions: Do desiring and acquiring make us happy? Does large-scale political change really address human suffering? Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
