In 2001, Robert Fisher is accused of killing his wife and 2 kids, then burning their house down. Despite an exhaustive manhunt, he has never been seen again. It’s one of the most infamous true crime cases in Arizona history. But only so much has been publicly known about the case until now.

May 11th 1996, a fast moving storm trapped three climbing teams high atop Mt Everest. The exhausted climbers were soon lost in a fierce blizzard and far from the safety of Camp 4 at 26,000 feeet. Renowned Climber/filmmaker David Breasheers, who was on the mountain that fateful day, returns to Everest to tell the complete story of what really happened on that legendary climb.


------1996 Mt Everest Disaster-------
The 1996 Mount Everest disaster occurred on 10–11 May 1996, when eight climbers caught in a blizzard died on Mount Everest while attempting to descend from the summit. Over the entire season, 12 people died trying to reach the summit, making it the deadliest season on Mount Everest at the time and the third deadliest after the 16 fatalities of the 2014 Mount Everest avalanche and the 22 resulting from avalanches caused by the April 2015 Nepal earthquake. The 1996 disaster received widespread publicity and raised questions about the commercialization of Everest.

Numerous climbers were at a high altitude on Everest during the storm, including the Adventure Consultants team, led by Rob Hall, and the Mountain Madness team, led by Scott Fischer. While climbers died on both the North Face and South Col approaches, the events on the South Face were more widely reported. Four members of the Adventure Consultants expedition perished, including Hall, while Fischer was the sole casualty of the Mountain Madness expedition. Three officers of the Indo-Tibetan Border Police also died.

Jim Newman is a Non-Duality non-teacher who meets the paradox of living by offering the idea that there is nothing at all at his YouTube channel,@JimNewman01. This is one of the most perplexing conversations we've ever had on the podcast, and is somewhere between a dadaist art piece, an Andy Kaufman performance, and an Andy Warhol show. It is best to sit back, allow it to wash over you, and to embrace for a moment that there is no there, there.

Jim Newman holds meetings about nonduality, in a style that has come to be known as uncompromising or radical nonduality. This style began with the book The Open Secret by Tony Parsons, and along with Tony, Jim is the arguably most prominent person speaking of nonduality in this way. Whereas some approaches to nonduality advocate the following of a path in order to eventually realise that we are not separate from the rest of existence, the uncompromising perspective sees this as mistaken, the fundamental idea being that because reality is already non-dual, whole, and undivided, there is nothing anyone could ever do to move closer to or further away from the wholeness of what is. Today, we explore the intricacies that somehow seem to arise out of this very simple message.

Professor Susan Blackmore, Visiting Professor at the University of Plymouth and author of several books on Consciousness, Parapsychology and Memes meets non-duality teacher Jim Newman.

This playful, feisty dialogue explores the value of suffering; spirituality; retreats; the illusion of a self; nothing happening here; false reality; ridding oneself of spirituality; seeking; that which can't be known; form and emptiness; intellectual understanding; suffering is seeking; separating the two kinds of seeking; favourite colour; is 'what is it like to be you?' a meaningful question; Nagel's famous paper; Chalmers' hard problem; how does the brain construct this illusion?; the muddle of consciousness studies; is there something for the bat; nothing actually really happens; once there was a boy; how can we do science then?; the endeavour does not come from the individual; why does the universe make sense?; taking responsibility!; there is no progress; materialist or not; nothingness; the heart sutra; it's impossible to realise this; meaning and purpose; freedom is in no meaning; evolution; illusions of God the creator; just stuff happening; making yourself more accident prone to enlightenment; daily meditation; spiritual materialism; this is not a teaching; a very hard message to follow.

Whatever's arising, whatever's happening, this room, these words, sitting on the bench, looking here, is absolute; rooming, sitting on a bench, looking, hearing.

Absolute isn't a word to understand. It's pointing to or suggesting that listening, hearing, rooming isn't understandable. It's immediate and all encompassing. There's no distance or space or separation to absolute, to what's happening, to listening, seeing, rooming. There's no distance there. Whatever's happening is everything, is absolute. There is never two.

This condition-less freedom - which is never found but seemingly lost - is continually longed for and is overlooked by being unknowable.

The solution or the end of the seeking isn't a finding. That need to find something is never satisfied; it never happens. If it does, it's very temporary. I find something and I'm afraid of losing it; I find something and I'm trying to hold onto it; I'm trying something and I'm trying to maintain it. It's never satisfied. The end of the seeking is the end of the seeker, is the end of the experience, that 'this' is real. -- Jim Newman

A Conversation with Jim Newman, Wrestling the Paradox.

Join Sam Harris—neuroscientist, philosopher, and New York Times best-selling author—as he explores the practice of meditation and examines the theory behind it.

There are hundreds of meditation apps on the market, and several do a fine job of teaching the basic principles of mindfulness. But most present the practice as though it were an ancient version of an executive stress ball—whereas it’s more like the Hubble Space Telescope. The purpose of meditation isn’t merely to reduce stress or to make you feel better in the moment—it’s to make fundamental discoveries in the laboratory of your own mind.

The Waking Up course is structured around its two core principles:

You can PRACTICE meditation, go beyond mere stress reduction to make profound discoveries about the nature of your own mind. And you can learn the THEORY behind the practice, ground your meditation experience in practical wisdom, ethical insights, and a rational understanding of the world.

Sam Harris is the author of five New York Times bestsellers, including Waking Up: A Guide to Spirituality Without Religion, and the host of the Waking Up Podcast. His writing and public lectures cover a wide range of topics—neuroscience, meditation, moral philosophy, religion, rationality—but generally focus on how a growing understanding of ourselves and the world is changing our sense of how we should live.

Sam received a degree in philosophy from Stanford University and a Ph.D. in neuroscience from UCLA. He has practiced meditation for over 30 years and has studied with many Tibetan, Indian, Burmese, and Western meditation teachers, both in the United States and abroad.

Is neo-Advaita a valid expression of nondual truth or a psychological trap and semantic minefield? From Sam Harris's conversation with Jim Newman. The full 100 minute discussion can be found via subscription to Sam's Making Sense podcast (https://samharris.org/podcast/). It's one of his Waking Up dialogues and is called Wrestling the Paradox.

After the release of the full dialogue, Sam added an introduction, which was generously transcribed by viewer Elizabeth Baird. Here it is:

"I originally posted this conversation without any introduction or disclaimer, but so many of you have since responded to it to express your frustration that I feel I need to give some context.

"As you’ll hear, Jim Newman is a teacher of nonduality and, as I say at the beginning, he is perhaps the most relentlessly nondualist person I have come across. Now, as to whether this is a mere affectation or whether it is the result of his direct perception of reality, it’s hard for me to judge. One thing I would point out here is that we shouldn’t mistake a person’s personality for his or her insight into the nature of mind. In an extreme case, someone can be extraordinarily charismatic and have no understanding at all of the nature of mind. Whereas somebody with deep insight may have all kinds of user-interface issues that could make them less charismatic than we might expect a Buddha to be. So this is just a note of caution. It’s hard to judge someone’s understanding from the outside.

"As you’ll hear at the end of this conversation, if you make it to the end, there were a few points that Jim made that seemed somewhat incongruous to me and, for his part, he was skeptical that I had realised this thing that he thinks he’s realised. And there’s no denying the fact that most of this conversation was me trying to walk across the minefield of terminology that Jim is allergic to and that, in turn, seems to have caused many listeners to be allergic to Jim himself. But let me just say in his defence, I see no reason to doubt that he’s honestly representing his experience and for that reason, it seemed well worth engaging him.

"One thing I resisted was the temptation to turn this conversation into a debate. Many listeners were waiting for me to push back harder against some of the things Jim said, as I did to some degree in my conversation with Rupert Spira. There’s no question that there can be a kind of nondual dogmatism or lack of flexibility in discussing conventional reality, and that can become tiresome. But it’s also possible to err on the other side and fail to acknowledge just how fully one’s vision of reality can be transformed. In any case, I found it an interesting conversation even if it was a bit of a tightrope walk. And I hope you all find it useful. And now I bring you Jim Newman."
