About Sam Harris
Sam Harris is an American neuroscientist, philosopher, and author born in 1967. He holds a PhD in cognitive neuroscience from UCLA and is known for his work on consciousness, morality, and rationality. He is also the creator of the Waking Up app, a meditation and mindfulness platform.
Harris believes that human well-being can be grounded in reason and science rather than religion, and that rigorous self-examination through meditation and honest inquiry is the path to clarity and inner peace.
"The present moment always will have been."
"Mindfulness is a translation of a Pali word, 'sati,' which simply means 'awareness' or 'attention.'"
"We are all, in some sense, dreaming all the time."
