“I though this was very interesting and the problem that has arisen as a result of mistranslations from Pali to Chinese to Japanese and then English etc makes a lot of sense and I would have loved to hear more about that.
But, I think that both speakers have veered into unknown territory once they started to talk about psychosis. It is a risk for some people who try serious meditation practices and that is why any serious school of meditation goes out of their way to screen these kind of people. It doesn’t always work though and there have been a few instances were people ended up taking their owns lives. Does this mean that meditation caused it or the vegetarian diet caused it? Everyday, worldwide, people have psychotic breakdowns and most of those people are not vegetarian. Yes, from a TCM perspective you could argue that they suffer from qi and or blood vacuity etc etc but anyone who has worked in the field of mental health will quickly point out that this is only a minor issue. People don’t suddenly have psychotic breakdowns out of the blue. There are often longstanding genetic, social, and other factors that play a huge roll here.
My last comment has to do with the host. You need to let people speak and not constantly interrupt. This is a problem that I’ve noticed with a number of podcast hosts. Let them speak. Listen to masters in the field such as the hosts of Hidden Brain, How I built this, and Fresh Air.”
