Send us comments, suggestions and ideas here! In this week's episode we grab our “They Live” glasses and descend down into Kane Parson's summer blockbuster horror hit: “The Backrooms” to explore its clever symbolic use of Jungian archetypes and Eastern mysticism to create a cerebral and spooky allegory with the same narrative depth we find in masterpieces like Kubrick's The Shining, Lynch's Twin Peaks or Owaku's Silent Hill 2 but with a retrowave drip that weaponizes nostalgia in a tour of the collective unconscious with obscure doorways straight into Buddhist hell. In the free side of the show we discuss Clark and the symbolism that haunts him, the Backrooms and his shadow; breaking down what it has to do with the infinite, changing and cyclical nature of the Backrooms itself. In the extended side of the show we discuss the Capn Carl, Tarot symbolism, the shadow of the retrowave aesthetic and how the Backrooms are a perfect allegory for the Bardos of the Tibetan Book of the Dead. Join us next week for part 2. That gives you a whole other week to go watch the movie before listening!

Entre las novedades destacan la distopía japonesa Bajo el ojo del gran pájaro, que aborda la extinción humana, y la novela histórica Bardo, centrada en la supervivencia de las mujeres en una isla noruega del siglo XVII. Por otro lado, sus recomendaciones personales invitan a un viaje cultural que incluye la sabiduría espiritual de 101 cuentos clásicos de la China y el choque entre tradición y revolución en El pequeño guardia rojo. La propuesta se completa con lecturas más pausadas como Villa Victoria, ambientada en la posguerra inglesa, y el intrigante estilo de la novela negra francesa en Las ratas de Monsouris.
Vor fast 1000 Jahren zeigte ein Mainzer Bischof besonders eindrucksvoll: Es lohnt sich, auch nach einem totalen Desaster nicht aufzugeben. Christoph Schäfer erinnert sich daher an dessen Gedenktag gerne an den heiligen Bardo.
Reposted from Wax Episodic, which you can find at: https://podcastica.com/podcast/wax-episodic — What a surprising, beautiful, romantic, tragic, f#$ked up episode this week.

One of the best looking shows on TV, funny as hell, violent AF (but in a cartoony way), and with a great cast, including Ella Purnell (Yellowjackets) and Walton Goggins (The White Lotus, The Righteous Gemstones). Not to be missed! Hosted by Jason, Kara, and Kasi. Pluribus (Apple TV): Everyone is transformed into a pleasant hive mind — except for Carol (Rhea Seehorn), the most miserable woman on the planet, who must save the world from happiness. It's sounds weird, and it is… in the best way. Created by the great Vince Gilligan, of Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul. Hosted by Jason and Karen! IT: Welcome to Derry (HBO): A fun, scary, and surprisingly great prequel to the 2016 and 2019 IT movies, Pennywise stalks the children of 1962 Derry. A mix of heart, mystery, charm, and some shockingly disturbing Nightmare on Elme Street-esque horror. Cohosted by Shawn of Strange Indeed. Alien: Earth (FX): From the brilliant Noah Hawley (Fargo, Legion), this one really scratches that sci-fi itch. A greedy corporate tech overlord transfers the consciousness of a group of terminally ill children into highly performant synth bodies. And the Xenomorph is in it, too. Also, Tim Olyphant!

Evan and Hannah talk about two separate playtests—Evan's playtest of the near-complete Escape from Wonderland, and Hannah's playtest of the just-begun Seekers of the Thrice-Lost Crown. Both games went well, but surprises lurk around every corner, and sometimes someone has to die on the first turn.

Michael Serva brings a rare combination of fine dining training, journeyman experience, and small-town insight into his work at Bordo in Marfa, Texas. His background spans San Francisco kitchens, mentorship under demanding chefs, and years of hands-on leadership in other operators' restaurants. That journey shapes the perspective he brings to running a compact, high-pressure operation in a remote location where consistency, resilience, and people skills matter as much as technical ability. In this episode, Michael talks about operational seasonality, staff development, quality standards, and guest experience systems as he explains how Bardo grew from a converted Airbnb into a destination with lines out the door. He describes learning by doing, making mistakes under someone else's roof, and the long process of developing judgment before opening his own place. He also explains how limited supply options, high-volume surges, and a tiny production space reinforced his commitment to craft, patience, and steady improvement. Michael also shares why he built a community-grounded service model in Marfa, how he aligned his concept with local expectations, and why overdelivering on hospitality is a daily practice rather than a marketing tactic. From hiring locally to expanding only when operations demanded it, he illustrates how intentional choices, humility, and genuine care can fuel strong word-of-mouth‑ growth even without traditional advertising.

What is the potential for copper mineralization in the northern Peruvian Andes? Could uranium be important in the future of South America? Today's episode features two of the top SEG 2025 Student Podcast Challenge entries. First, we are featuring the third place team from the competition, the students at the National University of Engineering in Lima, Peru. SEG 2026 Student Podcast ChallengeChapter 1: The potential for copper mineralization in the northern Peruvian Andes: Support for the sustainable green energy transitionNational University of Engineering in Lima, Peru.Hosts, Milagros Del Rosario De la Cruz Chanco and Erick Ronaldo Romani Pongo Production Team, Jean Pierre Avendaño Quispe, Felipe Ramiro Robles Salvador, Antonio Chavez Anccasi, Nicolas Valentino Bances Camacho, Jhonny Angelo Urbano Ramos, Lorena Naydelin Rojas Hernandez, Jerry Junnior Ramirez Guadalupe We address Peru's role in the global energy transition and its relevance as the world's third largest copper producer, with 10% of the world's reserves. The southern region dominates production, while the north, despite hosting important projects, remains underdeveloped due to socio-environmental conflicts, lack of infrastructure and a historical bias in exploration. Geologist Pedro Reyes proposes three strategies to reverse this situation: expanding exploration in poorly studied areas, analysing geological transitions between epithermal and porphyry deposits, and evaluating new mineralised styles in the north. He also stresses that the success of these projects depends not only on technical aspects, but also on adequate social management. Finally, he emphasizes that the future of the sector depends on innovation and the training of new generations capable of discovering and exploiting Peru's enormous copper potential, especially in the northern Andes.Chapter 2: Uranium in Latin America: Powering the Future?University of El Paso TexasHosts, Paola Salas, Aaron Atkins and Bardo Tavizon Editor, Daniel Castano MadrigalIn this episode Paola, Bardo, and Aaron, representing the SEG Student Chapter at UTEP, dive into the exciting possibilities of uranium in shaping the region's energy landscape. Their discussion highlights its vital role as a low-carbon alternative in our global energy mix. While it's true that the public often associates nuclear energy with past disasters and weapons, the hosts shine a light on the technological advancements that are making nuclear energy safer and more sustainable today.The conversation shifts to the immense potential of Latin America, with Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina standing out as key players due to their uranium reserves and growing interest in nuclear power. Yet, they also address the challenges ahead, including environmental concerns, political instability, and public scepticism. The presenters stress the importance of responsible mining, open communication, and investment in education to tackle these issues. In the end, they present uranium as a promising avenue toward a cleaner energy future, provided we approach its development thoughtfully and inclusively.SEG Minerals - Discovery to Recovery theme music is Confluence, by Eastwinds.EastwindsCome join us in Salt Lake City, Utah for SEG 2026, September 30th to October 3rd.

Caroline Gutmann « J'irai jusqu'au bout de vos nuits » (Editions de l'Observatoire)Paris, l'été. Après une opération au cerveau, Caroline Mendel, lasse de ses rendez-vous à l'hôpital dans la capitale désertée, cherche une échappatoire. C'est au parc Montsouris qu'elle va la trouver : grâce à la rencontre d'une vieille dame fantasque, elle découvre le mystère du palais du Bardo. Reproduction du palais du bey de Tunis et haut lieu de science, il a trôné pendant plus de cent vingt ans sur la colline de Montsouris, avant de disparaître le 5 mars 1991 dans un incendie dont on n'a jamais su l'origine. La narratrice se livre alors à un véritable jeu de pistes.D'un palais oublié aux laboratoires de l'Empire allemand, de la grande chimiste Clara Immerwahr, suicidée par idéal pacifiste, à une histoire d'amour lourde de secrets, elle tente à tout prix d'élucider cette « affaire du Bardo ».Enquête passionnante autour d'un joyau disparu de Paris qui donne voix à des femmes que l'on a longtemps tenté de réduire au silence, J'irai jusqu'au bout de vos nuits nous rappelle que si la mémoire est oublieuse, il reste toujours, dans les cendres, des traces du passé.Musique : "Dance for me Wallis" Abel KorzeniowskiHébergé par Ausha.

On tending to our interdependence, living life fully, and dying with attention and equanimity. 0:00 — Introduction 1:34 — Overview of Ann's Book "Traveling in Bardo" 3:55 — Personal Reflections on Grandmother's Funeral 7:20 — The Role of Practice in Embracing Impermanence 16:15 — Living with Attention and Interdependence 34:57 — Authenticity and True Nature 42:09 — Conclusion and Final Thoughts Ann Tashi Slater writes for The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Paris Review, and Granta, among others, and is a contributing editor at Tricycle. She presents and teaches workshops at Princeton, Columbia, Oxford, Asia Society, and The American University of Paris, and was a regular speaker at NYC's Rubin Museum of Art during the museum's 20-year run. Ann's new book, Traveling in Bardo: The Art of Living in an Impermanent World was released by Balance/Hachette in September, 2025. TRAVELING IN BARDO explores how we can find meaning and happiness in a world where change is the only certainty. Interweaving explorations of "bardo" between-states in relation to marriage and friendship, parents and children, and work and creativity with stories of her Tibetan ancestors and Buddhist teachings on the fleeting nature of existence, Slater illuminates what the teachings have to tell us in our contemporary lives. She relays vital wisdom from Tibetan culture, giving us a bold, new framework to navigate moments of change and live life fully. With a foreword by Dani Shapiro, the book has been praised by Elizabeth Gilbert, Melissa Febos, Sharon Salzberg, and Julia Alvarez, among others, and has been selected as a "Must-Read" by the Next Big Idea Club, co-curated by Malcolm Gladwell. In the midst of this shifting landscape, Slater invites us to embrace impermanence in a powerful way, rooted in ancient wisdom. During over forty years of writing and speaking about her Tibetan-American heritage and the relevance of Buddhism in Western society, Slater has come to see how Tibetan bardo views on impermanence can transform the way we live. A luminous guide to navigating transition and impermanence, it offers us the opportunity to find happiness in an impermanent world.
The novelist, essayist, and short-story writer George Saunders—widely celebrated for his novel Lincoln in the Bardo (2017), which won the Man Booker Prize, and book of short stories Tenth of December (2013)—has made it his mission to “de-dullify” the world through his clear-eyed, empathic, often-puckish prose. There's an unwavering spirit of generosity embedded in the way Saunders tells stories and teaches his craft that ensures his readers and students alike stay along for the ride. Saunders's curiosity about the afterlife, a recurring motif in his writing, rises to the fore in his latest novel, Vigil, which follows a pair of ghostly figures as they visit the deathbed of a prideful, climate-change-denying Texas oil tycoon. On this episode, he shares how practicing meditation has shifted his approach to writing and his outlook on life, the underlying importance of humor in his work, and why to be a good storyteller is akin to being a good host. Special thanks to our Season 13 presenting partner, Van Cleef & Arpels.

Dear FriendsIn this episode of Gateways to Awakening, Yasmeen Turayhi sits down with writer and teacher Ann Tashi Slater—a Tibetan-American author whose work has appeared in The New Yorker, The New York Times, The Washington Post, The Paris Review, and more. Ann joins us from Tokyo to explore her new book, Traveling in Bardo: The Art of Living in an Impermanent World, a Next Big Idea Club “Must-Read,” and to unpack one of the most powerful spiritual frameworks for this moment in history: the bardo.Bardo, in Tibetan Buddhism, means “between state.” It can refer to the space between death and rebirth, but it also describes the in-between moments we all live through—career transitions, identity shifts, endings, new beginnings, illness, loss, and the quiet uncertainty of not knowing what comes next. Together, Yasmeen and Ann explore how accepting impermanence is not passive at all—it is the turning point that restores agency, clarity, and forward movement. Ann shares personal stories from her Tibetan family lineage in Darjeeling, including the fascinating ancestral connection between her great-grandfather and the early Western translation of The Tibetan Book of the Dead. “Acceptance is not giving up. Acceptance is the moment where we stop fighting reality and finally regain the ability to move forward.” - Ann Tashi SlaterIn this episode, we explore:1. What bardo actually means, and why it is not only about death but also about everyday life transitions.2. Why the only real certainty is change, and how accepting that can reduce anxiety rather than increase it.3. How “acceptance” creates calm because it helps the mind stop fighting reality and start seeing options clearly.4. A powerful Buddhist framing of agency: action of body, speech, and mind, including the choice to take no action.5. How victim narratives can subtly remove our power, and how the bardo teachings help bring responsibility back in a grounding way.6. Why karma means action, not fate, and how small daily choices create “forks in the road” over time.7. How to “practice impermanence” through everyday endings—the end of a day, a season, a trip, a conversation—so you are more resilient when bigger transitions arrive.Ann Tashi Slater's book is Traveling in Bardo: The Art of Living in an Impermanent World, and you can learn more at anntashislater.com.If this episode resonated, please share it with someone who is navigating a transition, facing uncertainty, or standing in the in-between—and needs language for how to move through it with more clarity, grace, and power.Tune in to Gateways to Awakening for more conversations with leading thinkers, creators, and spiritual pioneers shaping the future of consciousness.

George Saunders is the highly acclaimed author of several short story collections, including “Tenth of December,” and “CivilWarLand in Bad Decline,” and others, along with political commentary that has appeared in The New Yorker and other magazines. He won the 2017 Booker Prize for his earlier novel, “Lincoln in the Bardo.” This latest novel, Vigil, takes place in the in-between time before death, when an elderly oil oligarch lies dying, and an angel of mercy, a ghost, named Jill, is on hand to comfort him. The question at hand concerns forgiveness, accountability, grace and several other issues that become involved when someone whose actions were deleterious to humankind and the planet is forced to examine their actions on earth. Justification, remorse, sin? What does it mean, and how do we, the living, deal with these issues when there are so many bad actors doing damage these days on the world and national stages.

In this episode I am once again joined by Dr Francisco José Luis, scholar of Indo-Iranian Studies and Comparative Religion trained at the Sorbonne, Paris and SOAS, London. Francisco shares his research into the links between Indian and Tibetan tantric practices and the mystical teachings of Shi'ite Islam, reveals the prevalence of lucid dreaming techniques in antiquity, and emphasises the importance of the Silk Road in transmitting esoteric knowledge between civilisations. Francisco discusses the Islamic yogi, Jâbir ibn Ḥayyān; traces the historical tensions between the scholarly, jurist factions and mystics within Shi'ism; and asserts that Iranian Buddhism was a key part of the Islamic Golden Age. Francisco also argues for significant Islamic influence on Buddhism, the need for a sense of civilisational greatness, and why he believes the time has to come to reignite sacred chivalry. … Video version: https://www.guruviking.com/podcast/ep354-islamic-mysticism-tantric-buddhism-francisco-jose-luis Also available on Youtube, iTunes, & Spotify – search ‘Guru Viking Podcast'. … Topics include: 00:00 - Intro 01:02 - Lucid dreaming techniques in a 19th century Shi'ite text 03:34 - The focal point of the Shi'ite tradition 04:28 - 4 volume Shi'ite encyclopaedia of dreams 06:21 - Links between Tibetan and Shi'ite dream yoga techniques 08:01 - Silk road, Gandhāra, and the internationalisation of Buddhism 09:07 - Jâbir ibn Ḥayyān, the Islamic alchemist and “Buddhist yogi” 11:06 - Iranian Buddhist influence on the Golden Age of Islam 14:26 - The rise of the scholar 16:20 - Islamic influence on Buddhism 17:04 - Practice over dogma in Oḍḍiyāna 19:11 - The influence of Classical Greece 19:51 - Lucid dreaming in antiquity 22:27 - Hesychasm: a Christian breath, body, and mind meditation 25:16 - A prophet is always awake 26:19 - Rosary and the influence of Christianity on Islam 28:01 - Lucid dreaming and the Desert Fathers 31:54 - Sleep deprivation to achieve mystical states 37:51 - Bardo ideas and the Iranian worldview 40:49 - Monastic routine and lucid dreaming 42:57 - Tasks to complete in the dream 43:28 - Angelic possession and contacting the Imam in dreams 50:28 - Is mystical Shi'ism practiced today? 58:22 - Francisco's initiation and anti-mystical, Occidental materialism 59:20 - Political Shi'ism 01:01:41 - Attachment to matter to the detriment of spirit 01:02:07 - The need for the spirit for civilisational greatness 01:04:13 - Francisco's mentoring 01:07:14 - Reigniting sacred chivalry 01:08:07 - Plato, Evola, and Traditionalism 01:10:19 - Use of the letter “a” in Shi'ite mysticism and other tantric similarities 01:11:13 - Entheogen use in Iranian mysticism 01:12:06 - Francisco's mushroom trip 01:13:23 - Francisco's aims 01:15:22 - Reading recommendations: Henry Corbin and Mostafa Vaziri 01:19;18 - Buddhism in Iran … Previous episodes with Dr Francisco José Luis: - https://www.guruviking.com/ To find our more about Dr Francisco José Luis, visit: - https://www.instagram.com/hludvig_tradicionalista For more interviews, videos, and more visit: - https://www.guruviking.com Music ‘Deva Dasi' by Steve James

Class #14 | March 10, 2026 | Click here for source sheet. When the man entered with the boy in his arms, a change came over the place. All of us felt it. Something in the air trembled; a warmth passed through the yard, and we knew that one of the living had come among us. We assembled in small knots, whispering about our former lives. Some remembered their misdeeds, some their triumphs. We debated, we argued, we laughed when the memory allowed it, but always we were together, bound by the strange circumstance of our continued existence. - Lincoln in the Bardo, George Saunders

What if dying is not an ending, but a moment of radical clarity? In his new novel "Vigil," George Saunders conjures a strange and often comic world of bickering angels visiting a dying, deeply flawed man—debating and waiting to see whether he can face the truth about himself before it's too late.In this conversation, Steve Paulson talks with Saunders about the evolution of his ideas about death and the possibility of an afterlife. Dying, he says, may be “the ultimate experience of wonder,” and he believes ghost stories can open powerful imaginative spaces for novelists. Saunders reflects on his own Buddhist practice as he considers these life-and-death questions, and he tells us why he thinks fiction is uniquely suited to grappling with complex moral issues and why Tolstoy and Chekhov are his personal sources of inspiration.Saunders is the author of such celebrated books as “Tenth of December,” “Pastoralia,” and the Booker Prize-winning “Lincoln in the Bardo.” His nonfiction book about the great Russian writers is “A Swim in a Pond in the Rain.”This interview was recorded at the Central Library in downtown Madison shortly before Saunders spoke at the Wisconsin Book Festival.— To the Best of Our Knowledge — On his short story collection “Tenth of December.

A conversation with celebrated author George Saunders about his new novel, Vigil, and what fiction can teach us about empathy, self-awareness, and mortality. George Saunders is the bestselling, award-winning author of Lincoln in the Bardo, Tenth of December, and many other books. His new novel, Vigil, tells the story of a woman who died in 1976 and has spent the decades since comforting the dying—until she encounters a former oil executive responsible for early climate change denial. In this conversation, Dan and George talk about: Why George keeps writing about ghosts and the afterlife (hint: it's not just about mortality dread) The lavish empathy at the heart of Vigil—and whether we should extend that empathy even to people doing civilizational damage What George calls "warm metacognition"—the practice of dropping back out of your thought loops to examine what kind of goggles you're wearing How fiction can turn your mind into a "reconsideration machine" (and why that matters in real life) The difference between kindness and niceness George's relationship with death anxiety, which he's had since childhood and which has only intensified with age What George has learned about listening from teaching and hosting his Substack, Story Club Why the older he gets, the more important it is to stretch himself creatively His advice for dealing with stuckness (in writing and in life): curiosity over self-accusation George's new novel Vigil is out January 27th from Random House. Check out his Substack, Story Club, where he discusses classic short stories with an incredibly thoughtful community.

In the 4th episode of our Super Traits series, Kelly sits down with her favorite writer George Saunders—author of 12 books including Lincoln in the Bardo and his latest novel Vigil—to explore creativity as a practice of staying open. They talk about how precise language changes the way we receive the world, why specificity lowers reactivity, and what it means that neurologically speaking, we're always writing and revising. George reflects on empathy as a gateway to creativity, why foreclosure is death to the creative process, and the dream of repair—which might be the whole job of fiction. He also shares why he never decides what his books mean before he writes them and why he considers constraints to be essential.
