In this provocative and exhilarating dialogue, Jun Po Roshi and Ken Wilber take an in-depth look at Keith Martin-Smith's new book: A Heart Blown Open: The Life and Practice of Zen Master Jun Po Denis Kelly Roshi.

Death, Rebirth, and Meditation

Some type of reincarnation doctrine is found in virtually every mystical religious tradition the world over.
