Stephen Batchelor's current meditation practice I recently saw a remark that implied that Stephen Batchelor no longer meditates or at least not very regularly.

If true, this seems important. Batchelor is prominent, even central, in the contemporary, so-called Secular Buddhism movement. He has a long history of different phases of belief and practice, from Tibetan, to Zen, to a form of agnostic/secular "Buddhism" that he has almost come to define on his own.

Can anyone supply a pointer to that assertion or related material? I did not capture it at the time.
Found it! (Admins -- should I delete this now superfluous question?)

  Batchelor said [in 2003] he no longer meditated every day. "I am a meditation
  teacher who doesn’t meditate any more," he said, smiling sheepishly.
  Although he once found meditation "extraordinarily valuable," over
  time it came to seem like "a kind of evasion, really. It was a cutting
  off from experience, rather than a full-blooded engagement with all of
  its ambiguities and messiness." He tried to cultivate his existential
  awareness through writing now more than through meditation. "I write
  and think and struggle with questions. That’s my practice.
