Today's interview is with Micah Peterson, a member of the founding team and the VP of Product Management at ProcedureFlow, the next-generation knowledge management software that is designed to help companies visualize and navigate processes. We talk about two delusions that exist in the service space, particularly at the VP level, why followed procedures reduce AHT, how customer service can often be the dumpster fire of the company, and how text-based knowledge bases tend only to have a 3-year lifecycle unless they are properly cleaned and managed before they become completely dysfunctional. This interview follows on from my recent interview – The autonomous enterprise is like a North Star vision of where business is going – Interview with Kerim Akgonul and Peter van der Putten of Pega – and is number 478 in the series of interviews with authors and business leaders that are doing great things, providing valuable insights, helping businesses innovate and delivering great service and experience to both their customers and their employees.

Alex Bernardo joins Doug again to discuss the books they've got in hand and on the shelf!  Alex's book list includes a book by Lori Calhoun, known for her thought-provoking writing on the military industrial complex and the philosophy of war. They explore her book War and Delusion and her newest release, Questioning the COVID Company Line, which challenges the government and mainstream media's narrative surrounding the pandemic. Doug has been diving into biblical studies a bit more, particularly the works of Scott McKnight and N.T. Wright on situating the language of the gospel in the first century. They explore how Paul utilizes the term "evangelion" in his letters and discuss the importance of understanding Paul's use of language for faithful scriptural interpretation. Alex then discusses Brian Rosner's book Paul and the Law, which tackles the intriguing relationship between Paul and the Jewish law.  Along with a window into Alex's reading routine, they also share some exciting book recommendations covering a range of topics, from politics and economics to medieval history and philosophy of science. Near the end, they discuss Carol Roth's new book, You Will Own Nothing, exposing the importance of ownership for wealth and freedom, and how various forces are aiming to undermine this fundamental concept.

Rishi Sunak earned almost £5m in the past three years, yet this was only taxed at a rate of 22%. Britain's tax system is broken, focusing on income rather than wealth, and it seems like no one plans on doing anything about this. Shadow chancellor Rachel Reeves has explicitly stated that should Labour come into power, a wealth tax will not be introduced. In this episode, staff writer Harry Lambert sets out how Labour could raise £28billion by adopting a wealth tax, and how this could help narrow the gap between Asset Britain and Austerity Britain.Read Britain's great tax con here: https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/economy/2023/08/britains-great-tax-conDownload the New Statesman app:iOS: https://apps.apple.com/gb/app/new-statesman-magazine/id610498525Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.progressivemediagroup.newstatesman&hl=en_GB&gl=USSubscribe to the New Statesman from £1 per week:https://newstatesman.com/podcastofferSign up to our weekly Saturday Read emailhttps://saturdayread.substack.com/ Hosted on Acast.

The Dark Depths of Delusion: Analyzing Lori Vallow Daybell's Courtroom Behavior

In a recent episode of the podcast "Hidden Killers," host Tony Brueski and former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke discussed the courtroom antics of Lori Vallow Daybell, the woman convicted of conspiracy to commit murder and first-degree murder of her children, JJ Vallow and Tylee Ryan.    Brueski and Dreeke dissected Vallow Daybell's behavior and statements in the courtroom, characterizing her as delusional. Dreeke noted, “She was really, and still is, massively rationalizing. Her behavior to really a huge extent and degree." He further elaborated on the depths of her delusion, pointing out her belief that her late friend Tammy Daybell is busy working in heaven and her murdered children hold powwows with Jesus and tell her she did nothing wrong. Dreeke lamented that for families seeking closure and relief from pain, it is particularly tragic that Vallow Daybell shows no remorse or recognition of her crimes.    The discussion also touched on the impending murder trial Vallow Daybell faces in Arizona, raising questions about her mental state and the practicality of another trial. While Dreeke emphasized the importance of the justice system holding people accountable regardless of their mental state, he also acknowledged the emotional toll on the families and the strain on resources, given the likely similar outcome.    Although the hosts highlighted the complexities and challenges of the situation, they underscored the need for support and therapy for the affected families. Brueski summarized, "You just gotta let go of the fact of what you're trying to feel better by having... unattainable because the person that you're trying to get it from is incapable of delivering it."    This episode of "Hidden Killers" sheds light on the profound psychological complexities surrounding the case of Lori Vallow Daybell, revealing the nuances and challenges that face the families of victims and the justice system alike.

UnMind: Zen Moments With Great Cloud

ZEN AT WORK, AT HOME, AT PLAYFollowing on the last segment of UnMind, this one is based on questions raised by the same member of the Atlanta Soto Zen Center community. She moved here from India, and later moved out of the Atlanta area. If you are interested having in a regular online dharma dialog with me, as she does, let me know. And If you have questions regarding the integration of everyday life with your Zen practice, please don't hesitate to send them to me for future podcasts.Last time, we considered some of the seeming contradictions with the compassionate teachings of Zen Buddhism that arise in the modern work space. This time we will look into some of the more personal aspects of our relationships, inside and outside of the formal Zen community, or Sangha It seems to me that one of the submitted questions bridges all the various contexts of the social sphere of daily life, which refers back to my model of the Four Spheres of Influence that form the context of our practice, whether in ancient or modern times (see the illustration in the post):3. [What does Zen have to say] on the nature of relationships? This highly generalized question may appear too broad, at first glance. But this issue of relationships, and how we handle them, comes up repeatedly, in our daily lives. We all have multiple relationships that last for many years over our lifetimes, coming and going like the seasons. Others are daily interactions; some are infrequent, and many are once-in-a-lifetime occurrences. The most difficult tend to be with immediate family. Someone said that the “dharma of marriage,” or something to that effect, is the most difficult of dharmas. One might substitute “family” for “marriage.” Some might insist on using “in-laws” as the determinative term. But all would admit that the closer the bond, the more fraught with emotion, like the old song, “You always hurt the one you love.” But Zen challenges the very notion of our definition of relationships, beginning with that of the self. This approach is inherently circular, studying the self with the self, itself. In Fukanzazengi—Principles of Seated Meditation, Master Dogen advises us to set aside all of our usual preoccupations with everyday concerns when entering into zazen: For practicing Zen a quiet room is suitable; eat and drink moderatelyPut aside all involvements and suspend all affairsDo not think “good” or “bad” do not judge true or falseGive up the operations of mind intellect and consciousnessStop measuring with thoughts ideas and viewsHave no designs on becoming a buddha That second line is also translated “Setting aside all delusive relationships.” Which begs the question, What relationship is not delusional, if any? Delusion is a central concern in Buddhism. Its seminal teachings question the evidence of our very senses, in the opening verses of the Heart of Great Wisdom Sutra: [Given Emptiness] no eyes, no ears, no nose, no tongue, no body, no mindNo seeing, hearing, smelling, tasting, touching, no thinking [until we come to]No realm of sight [and all the rest; until we come to] no realm of mind- consciousness For those of you who attend our services and chant this sutra, you will not recognize the phrases “until we come to” or “and all the rest,” which have been deleted from the current consensus translation that we have adopted. They appear in the first English translation that Matsuoka Roshi approved at the Zen Buddhist Temple of Chicago, my home temple. “And all the rest” stands in for repeating all the senses over again, and is inserted repeatedly as a kind of shorthand for making the original verses a bit briefer. The other phrase, “until we come to” is more relevant to the overall meaning of the chant. It implies that the process of meditation — to which the Heart Sutra stands as a testament — entails a natural progress of segueing through deeper and deeper levels of apprehending “emptiness,” or shunyatta, in Sanskrit. Beginning with our conscious awareness of form, feeling, thought, impulse, and consciousness itself; then expanding to the senses, one-by-one; then on to challenge our concepts of ignorance, including our attitudes toward old age and death. And finally, suffering itself, along with its cause and cessation; as well as the Path. Then, knowledge itself; and any idea of attainment that we may harbor. This section constitutes the most sweeping dismissal of all of our various dualistic concepts of Buddha's teachings, along with our perception and conception of our own reality. Everything is called into question. When it comes to the relationships between ourselves and others, it follows that as long as our apprehension of the self is delusional, then all relationships must be delusional. Only if and when we see through the self can we have an unbiased appreciation of relationships. In this light, I ask you to consider what is the most singular aspect of any relationship that applies equally to all relationships, whether with intimates, family and friends, or inanimate objects, for that matter? In terms of people-to-people connections, most will offer something like “trust,” “love,” or “forgiveness,” et cetera. “Can't we all just get along?” as the current trope has it. But Zen goes deeper, as Matsuoka Roshi would often say. Remember that the three “marks,” or salient characteristics of suffering, Buddhism's dukkha, are “impermanence, imperfection, and insubstantiality.” From this rather terse description, I would suggest that the first is the most salient aspect of any and all relationships: that they are impermanent, first and foremost. The good news is that a bad relationship is a temporary annoyance or worse; the bad news is that the good relationships are also fleeting. That any relationship is guaranteed to be imperfect is common knowledge, though it does not prevent us from aspiring to perfection, especially in others, finding Mr. or Ms “right.” That they are insubstantial may be challenged as to the karmic consequences of, say, begetting children. That seems like a pretty substantial entanglement, and is probably the main rationale for the choice of most monastics to remain celibate. Several of the other, related questions raised by our interlocutor would fall under this same examination in meditation. Such as, What does Zen have to say… …on not deciding to marry? …on fertility, or having children, or raising family?…on the nature of jealousy?…on forgiveness?…on victim mentality?…on self harm? I think we can see that these are all variations on the same theme, tied to the reification of the self, and in the absence of insight into dukkha and shunyatta. This is not to be dismissive of these concerns, or to make light of them, but only to say that you will most likely find the answers to such questions on the cushion, or as an aftereffect of sitting in meditation, and not in my words. In zazen we examine the very nature, and question the very existence, of this so-called self, the source of so much of our suffering. It is not that the self does not exist. It is just that it may not exist in the way that we think it does, which is causing all the trouble. This is not a doom-and-gloom conclusion to come to. Buddhism is not pessimistic, and not overly optimistic. It is just realistic. And Zen represents its most realistic application to real life. To return to the Heart Sutra, we find that it pivots to a more hopeful, sunny conclusion, after freeing ourselves from the snare of the small self: With nothing to attain a bodhisattva relies on Prajna Paramitaand thus the mind is with-out hindrance with-out hindrance there is no fearfar beyond all inverted views one realizes nirvanaAll buddhas of past present and future rely on Prajna Paramita “Prajna paramita” means “perfecting of wisdom” in Sanskrit, an ongoing and open-ended process. There is “nothing to attain” because we already have everything we need. The mind is originally, and naturally, “without hindrance.” It does not depend on anything we do or do not do. Our true self is already complete and sufficient to itself. We do not, or should not, really need relationships, to be happy. This is not a self-centered idea, but should allow us to sustain real and healthy relationships. If all we bring to a relationship is personal need, then it is bound to distort that relationship. If we are “happy in our own skin,” we may have something to offer in all of our relationships. At the risk of repeating myself, my model of how this works, or should work, posits four dimensions, or levels, of samadhi, a Sanskrit term that has become part of the jargon of Zen. We may regard it as a kind of centered balance in the midst of all things, including relationships. I think we can demystify it by thinking of the zazen meditation posture as the ultimate in “physical samadhi.” Sitting in this upright posture still enough, for long enough, we begin to experience “emotional samadhi”: more calmness, less anxiety. The prevalent monkey mind relaxes into “mental samadhi”: more clarity, less confusion, particularly regarding the teachings of Buddhism. We begin to directly experience what Zen is pointing at. And finally, the goal we want to achieve in relations, “social samadhi”: less friction, more harmony at work, at home, and at play. Your results may vary, of course. The “true self” is selflessness, “neither self nor other than self,” as the Ch'an poem has it. Just as our “true home” is homelessness. Whether you find that fact to be a cause for work, or play; for joy, or chagrin, is entirely up to you. “Examine it thoroughly in practice.” This concludes my response to the questions under question. If you have more, I am open to considering them. You may find my email address on the ASZC website. I hope this has been useful, and encouraging to your practice.

In the past decade, our fundamental conception of the nature of reality itself--and who we are as human beings-- has completely changed. We once believed we were created male and female in the image of God as Scripture clearly states in Genesis 1. However, now our culture is in the throes of a delusion that says that biology has nothing to do with male and female, and that anyone can be whatever gender they want.

One of the most important questions in the drive to rapidly decarbonize our society is how to replace fossil fuel generated electricity with clean, renewable sourcesAnd one of the key questions there is, what counts as clean and renewable?Today's episode is all about biomass energy, which is essentially the burning of pelletized wood for electricity.  The Biomass industry is valued at over 100 billion dollars per year and growing, and many countries count biomass as renewable and carbon neutral.  But is it really?  Or is it one more false solution which is polluting communities, exploiting natural resources, and worsening the climate crisis?  And with the Biomass industry looking to expand into the Pacific Northwest, what does that mean for our timberlands and rural communities?To answer these questions,  I'm joined by Rita Frost and Peter RiggsRita Frost is a forest advocate with the Natural Resources Defense Council. Born and raised in the Southern US, she lives on unceded Kalapuya land in the Willamette Valley.  Rita has worked with communities confronting the biomass manufacturing industry in the Southern U.S. for the past 8 years. Peter Riggs is the director of Pivot Point, which works on a variety of land use and climate change issues in Washington state, nationally, globally.  He is based on Harstine Island in the southern Salish Sea.Research Links/Show Notes:https://environmentalpaper.org/the-biomass-delusion/Drax in Longview: https://www.kttn.com/v2-energy-market-for-wood-pellets-globally-threatens-u-s-forests/https://naacp.org/resources/resolution-wood-pellets-oppositionhttps://www.southernenvironment.org/news/new-study-confirms-harmful-impacts-of-biomass/Support the showPlease Donate to Help us Keep This Show Free!

I think we can all agree that the worst kind of love is unrequited love. And as much as we all hate to admit it, we have all been there. And if we are really going to be honest with ourselves, we have all had a really hard time accepting it too. And that's what todays episode is all about. Learning to accept when “he's just not that into you,” and more importantly how to heal, accept and move forward. We share some personal experiences and how we have both found ourselves in situations where not only was someone just not that into us (I know, hard to believe), we continued to fight with one more text or one more call. Listen besties, it ain't fun when you find yourselves in a situation like this, but that's why we are here.

On today's show, we're re-airing some of our favorite recent interviews:  In the latest issue of Foreign Affairs, Julia Preston, contributing writer for The Marshall Project, traces the crisis at the southern border to its roots in America's broken asylum system. Paula DiPerna, special advisor for CDP, the non-profit global environmental impact disclosure platform, and the author of Pricing the Priceless: The Financial Transformation to Value the Planet, Solve the Climate Crisis, and Protect Our Most Precious Assets (Wiley, 2023), argues that to avoid the "environmental default" of climate change we need to assign a monetary value for the health of the planet. Ben Smith, editor in chief of Semafor, former media columnist for The New York Times, and the author of Traffic: Genius, Rivalry, and Delusion in the Billion-Dollar Race to Go Viral (Penguin Press, 2023), tells the story of the progressive roots of digital news at companies like HuffPost and Gawker Media (including his own role as the founding editor in chief of Buzzfeed News) and how it went on to become a force in right-wing politics. The new Peacock show "The Gentle Art of Swedish Death Cleaning" (based on a Swedish concept, and the book of the same name) is not as morbid as it sounds.
