In this episode of the podcast, Albert and his guest, Dr. Richard Davidson, explore the fascinating boundary between the brain and the body. Dr. Davidson holds the prestigious titles of William James and Vilas Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry at the University of Wisconsin–Madison and is the Founder and Director of the Center for Healthy Minds. A close friend and confidante of the Dalai Lama, he is a highly esteemed expert and speaker. Albert and Dr. Davidson discuss some of his research on death and dying, including the Tibetan Buddhist practice of "thukdam," a meditative state that advanced practitioners can enter at the time of death. Dr. Davidson also shares his view that the brain does not die at the same time as the body and offers Albert valuable advice as he copes with the impending death of a close friend.
