Prominent Buddhist scholar B. Alan Wallace with IONS President James O’Dea dialogue about advanced states of consciousness in "The Attention Revolution."

Wallace begins with the synchronistic events that led to him to meet his Buddhist teachers, start a period of deeply committed meditation and eventually become a primary translator for the Dalai Lama. He then explores the interface of science and spirituality, as well as diving deeper into the ground state of awareness, the part of us that remains unsullied and even blissful. This state is connected to clarity, creativity, and the spontaneous upwelling of insight. Drawing upon his years teaching meditation, he goes into subtle understandings of consciousness that balance stillness and motion, attention and service, the power of contemplative science. He also discusses quantum theory in relationship to consciousness in this fascinating exploration.
