McMindfullness w/Ronald Purser in Conversation at PRSC: The Space

A event on Thursday 8th August. The event starts at 18:30.


From celebrity endorsements to monks, neuroscientists and meditation coaches rubbing shoulders with CEOs at the World Economic Forum in Davos, it is clear that mindfulness has gone mainstream. Some have even called it a revolution. But what if, instead of changing the world, mindfulness has become a banal form of capitalist spirituality that mindlessly avoids social and political transformation, reinforcing the neoliberal status quo?

Ronald Purser will be joining us in conversation to debunk the so-called “mindfulness revolution,” exposing how corporations, schools, governments and the military have co-opted it as a technique for social control and self-pacification.
