Debate over Sam Harris's secular meditation project
Original: 🧘🏼♀️ La # méditation laïque passée au crible. En réinventant le # bouddhisme à sa sauce, # SamHarris libère-t-il les es
A French audio programme is examining the rise of secular meditation and the role of Sam Harris, the American author who reworks Buddhist practice stripped of religion. The discussion asks whether his approach genuinely frees practitioners or reproduces a colonial logic of appropriating Eastern traditions. The episode is available on major audio streaming platforms.
Why now: The debate over whether secular mindfulness appropriates or democratizes Buddhist practice is actively being discussed in French-speaking circles.
