The Third and Fourth Series of Ruhe/Paññobhāsa Interview Videos

     All right, following are all the links to all the segments of the interviews with Brian Ruhe on May 17 and 25. Good old Brian (bless his heart) occasionally uses these discussions as opportunities to lend authority to some of his favorite conspiracy theories, which occasionally leads us away from Buddhism, Dharma, and mainstream political issues, and once or twice has elicited some exclamations on my part. But all in all the experience has been pretty good. If you watch only one of these, I recommend the last one, on Why Western Buddhists Usually Fail. Enjoy.
