Greg Goode - Buddha at the Gas Pump Interview

Also see http://batgap.com/greg-goode

Greg is a teacher of nondualism well known for a breadth of expression and a sense of humor. Inspired by Sri Atmananda Krishna Menon, Greg is one of the pioneers, along with Jean Klein and Francis Lucille, of "direct-path" style nondualism, a very intuitive, holistic and immediate form of Advaita. It was through contemplation on the teachings of Sri Atmananda that Greg's own search came to its peaceful conclusion.

Having studied Western philosophy at the Universität zu Köln in Cologne, Germany, Greg received his M.A. and Ph.D. in Philosophy from the University of Rochester. He studied Advaita Vedanta through the Chinmaya Mission, the Mahayana teachings of Pure Land Buddhism through Jodo-Shinshu, and studied Madhyamika Buddhism through the lineage of the pre-eminent scholar of Chinese Buddhism, Master Yin-Shun of Taiwan, P.R.C., author of The Way to Buddhahood.

Greg is the technical consultant for Philosophical Practice, the Journal of the American Philosophical Practitioners Association. He is also the author of Nondualism in Western Philosophy, Standing as Awareness, the forthcoming The Direct Path: a User Guide, and the forthcoming Emptiness and Joyful Freedom.

I like ug Krish. Nothing / that's all their is unteaching. Everything else is ego money making nonsense.

Hehe... oh to have oodles of time on my hands. I would love to make a montage of all the times someone on this show lifts up their coffee cup to make a point about object reality. :)  Thanks for a great interview!

Hey Rick: Happy New Year to you and Greg! Haven't watched an interview for a couple of months at least I'd guess. Not sure why. Tired of the same ol', same ol' I suppose. This conversation was an absolute joy and completely refreshing.  Thank you to both of you.
