Dr. Amelia Hall is a British-born scholar-practitioner of Tibetan Buddhism and professor in the Department of Wisdom Traditions at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. In this episode, we discuss the issues of taking on a religious tradition that comes from another culture, cyclical and linear orientations, cultural ‘exotification,’ the evolution of Buddhism outside of India, investigations of human relations with non-human beings, sacred landscapes and the health of the planet, personal and place-oriented re-indigenization and re-wilding, accepting the ‘magical’ in the academy, outer-inner and secret understandings, violence against the Earth and its beings, primeval relational consciousness versus the modern utility mind, commodity culture and the reclamation of the indigenous traditions of the British Isles, the modern interest in magick, and the nature of truth and reality around our experiences.
