The SEX WISDOM of Brad Warner — Podcast #249 — 12/01/10
Hey sex fans,
Damn, I got some might fine stuff to share with you today. This being the SEX WISDOM series, you’ve come to expect prominent movers and shakers in the field of human sexuality as my guests. And that’s because over the last year, we’ve chatted with researchers, educators, 
clinicians, pundits and philosophers; each one making news and reshaping how we look at our sexual selves.
Ya’ll probably know of my special interest in sexuality and spirituality, right? I mean for me there’s no more potent place in the human psyche than where eroticism and religion come together. So when I had the opportunity to visit with Brad Warner, Zen monk, prolific author, punk rocker and filmmaker, I jumped on it.
Brad is my kind of monk. He’s got his finger on the pulse of the popular culture; he can raise hell with the best of them; and still remain as centered as a Zen master. No small task that, my friends. We will be talking about loads of interesting stuff, including his latest book, Sex, Sin, and Zen: A Buddhist Exploration of Sex from Celibacy to Polyamory and Everything in Between. This is not to be missed, people!
Brad and I discuss:
- Discerning between how things really are and how we want them to be;
- The difficulty of combining sex and spirit for us in the west;
- Celibacy and abstinence;
- Is there such a thing as a timeless code of ethics;
- The Buddhist precept — Do not misuse sexuality;
- His personal spiritual and sexual journey;
- Zazen;
- Sexual orientations;
- Christians and yoga.
