Purposelessness & the Zombie Myth

from Podcast Benomtad Hosted by Ben Lundy

The zombie might be a sign that people feel a lack of purpose in the world. Ian and I discuss this idea from John Vervaeke et. al. in their book. We go on to talk about developing meaning in life through getting back to one’s true nature, as we discuss the aspects of the zombie and its story. “Zombies in Western Culture: A Twenty-First Century Crisis,” by John Vervaeke, Christopher Mastropietro, and Filip Miscevic (Chapter 3): http://dx.doi.org/10.11647/OBP.0113 (From a discussion on “Zombies in Western Culture: A 21st Century Crisis,” Chapter 3) Thank you for watching!
