This week, Michael tells Reem the story of Thích Quảng Đức, a Vietnamese Mahayana Buddhist monk who burned himself to death in protest against the South Vietnamese government.
Conversation focal points include the process of mindfulness, the concept of samadhi. Samadhi defined means a state of intense concentration achieved through meditation. In Hindu yoga this is regarded as the final stage, at which union with the divine is reached (before or at death).
