In this podcast Professor Thurman examines the modern scientific perspective on reincarnation (the Buddhist Belief in Past & Future Life), the work of Hermann von Helmholtz on the vital principle and their context within Western religious doctrine.

Analyzing the idea of non-existence after death and prior to conception, Robert A.F. Thurman discusses the requirement to re-calibrate one’s understanding of life in order for the mind training practices of the Buddha to become useful.Buddhism 101: Buddhist Belief in Past & Future Life Photo by Filip Wolak via Flickr.
