7. Vincent Horn

Stephen Schettini talks with Vincent Horn about the relevancy of Buddhism today.

Vincent Horn is a self-described mind hacker and co-founder of the popular media company Buddhist Geeks. His work focuses on the fusion of nascent technology and contemplative wisdom.

Vincent talks candidly about dealing with disappointment with his teachers and traditions. We also discuss the convergence of various strands of Buddhism and modernity and what it means to be a human being at this time.

Quote: “The relevancy of Buddhism is probably overestimated by those who are really in love with it.”
