The Fractal Mind by Source Potential
The Fractal Mind by Source Potential is a discussion of the nature of consciousness and reality, where ancient wisdom and modern science seem to point at the same thing.
Hosted by R.J. Hills, founder of Source Potential and creator of the Awakening: Binaural Meditation app, each episode examines the territory where Vedanta, Taoism, Buddhism, and quantum mechanics converge.
Also join us every Sunday night for the Zen Bedtime Stories series. Narrated by R.J. Hills, these are ancient koans retold, each ending with a question to sit with.
Not teaching. Not preaching. Just pointing.

The second in a weekly series of ancient koans retold.
In T'ang dynasty China, the master Joshu lived to 121 years old. Where other teachers shouted or struck their students, he preferred conversation. One morning he addressed his monks with the Third Patriarch's famous verse about avoiding picking and choosing. Then he added something unexpected. "This old monk does not abide within clarity." A student saw his opening and pressed him. What followed became one of the most studied exchanges in Zen.
