Intersecting Wisdoms: Indigenous & Buddhist Insights With John Bradley

Session 6 of our Exploring Meditation, Meaning and the Mind is here! 

Join Associate Professor John Bradley in an intriguing conversation with Professor Craig Hassed in our July webinar: Intersecting Wisdoms: Indigenous & Buddhist Insights. 

With extensive experience in Indigenous communities of northern Australia and decades of scholarship at the Monash Indigenous Studies Centre, John is a leading expert on Indigenous languages, laws, and social structures. Outside John's academic career, he is a committed practitioner of Vajrayana Buddhism with a deep meditation practice spanning over 40 years; he brings a rich, dual perspective to this discussion. This session will delve into John's personal insights on meditation, meaning, and the mind, highlighting both the synergies and the contrasts between these two profound wisdom traditions.
