A Buddhist Master's Warning About AI | Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche Explains How to Meditate Properly, AI Gaining Consciousness & More
Inspire change.Show Notes
In this profound episode, Jordan sits down with Tulku Lobsang Rinpoche, a revered Buddhist master, doctor of Tibetan medicine, and global teacher of the Tummo (Inner Fire) practice. From his early life in Eastern Tibet to his mission of spreading ancient wisdom throughout the world, Tulku Lobsang shares insights into how the harmony between body, mind, and energy creates true happiness and health.
He explains the meaning behind Tummo, the ancient practice of awakening inner heat through breath, movement, and awareness, and how it unites body and mind in the present moment. Tulku Lobsang reveals his own daily routine, the value of sleep and reading, and how understanding balance in food and behaviour leads to lasting wellbeing.
As the conversation deepens, Tulku Lobsang offers an extraordinary perspective on meditation, describing its stages from waterfall-like chaos to the stillness of a calm ocean. He and Jordan explore AI and consciousness, and sharing a rare Buddhist view on whether artificial intelligence could one day possess awareness—and what lessons it would need to learn to truly be sentient.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Laird Hamilton, the big wave surfer and tow-in surfing innovator, for a wide-ranging conversation on facing fear, finding flow state and building a life around constant pursuit.

In today's episode, Jordan sits down with Garrain Asé for a raw conversation about marriage, collapse and rebuilding from the ground up. Garrain opens up about the recent separation from his wife Blair, the four months he spent living alone in the family home, and the ego and old patterns he had to surrender to bring his marriage back. He traces his path from a twelve year prison sentence and a record deal through homelessness, near total despair and the public reckoning that first gave his story purpose. The conversation moves into the work Garrain now teaches around the world, from healing the wounded inner child to his belief that adults are simply deteriorated children still running programs installed in their first seven years. He breaks down his concept of death portals, the major collapses that precede real growth, and shares the exact words from Blair that pulled him back into the marriage. He also unpacks forgiveness as a matter of frequency rather than action, the emptiness that so often sits behind financial success, and why vulnerability rather than strength was the thing that ultimately saved his life. This is a conversation about humility, honesty and what it actually takes to become the man your family needs. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
