Rizwan Virk, successful entrepreneur, investor, futurist, bestselling author, video game industry pioneer, and indie film producer, returns to discuss his latest book Wisdom of A Yogi, which after the the 75th anniversary of the seminal Autobiography of A Yogi written by the legendary Paramahansa Yogananda, an Indian Hindu
monk,
yogi and
guru who introduced millions to
meditation and
Kriya Yoga through his organization,
Self-Realization Fellowship (SRF) /
Yogoda Satsanga Society (YSS) of India – the only one he created to disseminate his teachings. A chief disciple of the yoga guru
Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, he was sent by his lineage to spread the teachings of yoga to the West. He immigrated to America at the age of 27 to prove the unity between Eastern and Western religions and to preach a balance between Western material growth and Indian spirituality. Rizwan examines this classic work with a modern lens and utilizing his background in technology with a focus on the simulation hypothesis. We discuss the impact that Yogananda had on the world and how his ideas are still relevant today. I asked Riz about the dangers of AI and he shares his thoughts on that and a number of other related topics. Riz has produced many
indie films (imdb link), including
Thrive, Sirius,
Knights of Badassdom, starring Peter Dinklage and Summer Glau, The CW's
The Outpost, as well as adaptations of the works of Philip K. Dick and Ursula K. Le Guin. Riz’s books include
Startup Myths & Models,
The Simulation Hypothesis,
Zen Entrepreneurship, and Treasure Hunt: Follow Your Inner Clues to Find True Success, and The Simulated Multiverse. Buy Riz's Books Here: https://www.zenentrepreneur.com/more-infoReleased under a Creative Commons Attribution International 4.0 License Thanks To Soundstripe and FMA CC4.0
