Simulation Hypothesis author Dr. Rizwan Virk returns to discuss his new book, The Zen Entrepreneur and the Dream, which claims our inner karmic patterns create the challenges we face in business and love, like quests written for us in a cosmic video game. He describes a vision he had in the ICU after heart surgery, in which Tibetan monks reminded him of a pre-birth plan to become a writer after his career as an entrepreneur. The conversation ranges from AI myths and censorship to the theme of forgetfulness found across Sufi, Gnostic, Hindu, Greek, Chinese and Jewish traditions.
