Buddhist and Taoist Notions of SELF

[al.]

This guys ideas brought up a lot of questions for me. It also seems to resonate with some of the current thoughts on this board about managing personal and social relationships.

How might the Buddha approach teaching/training the post-modern mind?
How might Lao Tzu?

How deep does the modern social/behavioral conditioning go? (I'm speaking about growing up in the last 10-15 years) Is it just another layer of self to peel back and witness our pure nature, or is there the need to discover new approaches to deal with way the modern mind works?

If your have a look at the videos or read some of his work, it'll put these questions in much better context!
