Enjoy!

We need a page here that lists all of these interviews, so that they can be easily referenced. They are not just "read once and forget" kind of things.

Hear hear! A reference page of these would be great.

I think I'm missing one here, but here's a bunch of 'em.

Thanks for the list, Joel, and thanks for the suggestion, Tomo. I've just added links to this entire series to the Dharma Talks and Interviews page:

On the more childish view of enlightenment:
I think people also confuse "enlightenment" with "nirvana."
And, nirvana really has the image to people of a wonderful state of blissedoutness.
And, don't a lot of you review to a "fruition" as "nirvana?"

Excellent! To aid newbies, I would suggest (because I am good at suggestions that make work for other people) creating a small snippet/intro for each, kind of like what you have below for the podcasts.
