Nirvana | Joseph Goldstein

Nirvana | Joseph Goldstein

New episodes come out every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for free, with 1-week early access for Wondery+ subscribers.

Nirvana is a culturally confusing and freighted term. It's the name of the best rock band of the 1990s and also the name of smoothie joints, vape stores and yoga studios. There's a vape place near me called Nirvana.

Nirvana's been fully co-opted and sometimes corrupted by the culture… and yet it is also the clearly stated goal of the Buddha's teaching. So what does it really mean?

We cover all of that today in what is an experimental episode for us. Not only because the topic is so unusual, but also because this is our first podcast recording of a live show. We recorded this at the Armory in Boston in front of a sold out crowd who did not know in advance that premier teacher Joseph Goldstein would be the guest. We would love your feedback, because if you like this, we'll do more.

Joseph Goldstein is one of the top western proponents of mindfulness. He co-founded the legendary Insight Meditation Society alongside Sharon Salzberg and Jack Kornfield. He also wrote a book called Mindfulness: A Practical Guide to Awakening.

PS We've been trying to do a bunch of experiments here on this show, and our latest is a weekly newsletter, which you can sign up for here!
