Nicholas Bright Haight
Bright On Buddhism
Welcome to Bright on Buddhism, a podcast where we discuss and explain topics of Buddhism in a casual, conversational, question and answer setting. My name is Nick Bright, scholar of East Asian Buddhism. I am currently studying for my Master’s degree in Religion at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, where I am specializing in pre-modern Japanese Buddhist architecture history. I have researched topics such as Japanese Buddhist responses to the Covid-19 pandemic, Buddhist Haiku poetry, and the Japanese history of science and religion. I will be joined by my friend Proven Paradox.

What I’ve been looking for
Finally a smart and academic but lighthearted look into Buddhism across the variety of traditions out there, with an eye to history and comparative theologies. The hosts and sound quality are great and I look forward to forays into different schools! Keep it up!!!
