Home Coaching Writing Get in Touch

Hi, I'm Andrew.

Andrew Shade Blevins

Right now I'm focused on:

Coaching for clarity and aliveness
• Hosting AI and Vajrayana, building bridges between AI research and Vajrayana practice
• Facilitating practice groups and courses with Evolving Ground
• Studying connections between contemplative practice and computational models of mind
• Hosting Reality Tasting, a speaking series about the art of appreciation

I write a newsletter, Immediacy. The most popular posts are:

Nobody Understands Me (Because I Am So Deep) - on being Enneagram Type 4
How to Be Happy - an empowering view on happiness
Am I Religious? - about my relationship with Vajrayana Buddhism

Since 2021 I've produced The Jim Rutt Show, a podcast about cutting-edge thinking in science, technology, and the future of our economic, political and social systems. It's good and I recommend it.

I keep loose track of recent projects here, and an occasionally updated resume here.

I live in Prospect Heights, Brooklyn. If you're in town, hit me up for a walk.

You can find me on Substack, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Are.na, or email me at andrew.s.blevins at gmail dot com. I like getting emails.
