WHAT IS LIFE? #19 Tim Freke and Chris Bache
Philosopher Tim Freke talks with Galileo Commission adviser Professor Chris Bache about his revelation after 20 years of high dosage LSD trips as explored in his book 'LSD and The Mind of the Universe'.
The Extended Mind: Recent Experiments – Rupert Sheldrake
In this presentation from the 2014 Synchronicity Symposium, Galileo Commission adviser Ruper Sheldrake shares his work on designing experiments to test if people can tell if they are being stared at as well as his work on telepathy in animals. Rupert Sheldrake, Ph.D. is a biologist and author of more than 80 scientific papers and 11 books, including Science Set Free.
Can we Crack the Mind-Body Problem? Part I – Emmanuel Ransford
This paper is in three parts. In this Part One, the randomness displayed by quantum objects is explored. The notion of quantumhood is then introduced. It refers to a kind of “wave wholeness” of elementary particles that, most significantly, turns out to be necessary to sustain nature’s consistency. When this quantumhood is in danger of being lost, a wave collapse, or quantum jump, is in order.
Diane Corcoran & Robert Caplan – Veteran NDEs
Diane Corcoran talks about her experience with NDEs as a US Army nurse in Vietnam and serving in the military over a 24-year career, including as Chief Nurse and Commander of a Combat Support Hospital. Robert Caplan is a Navy veteran near-death experiencer: This presentation will address my knowing of my/our true identity.
Is There Life After Death? – Panel discussion
In this panel, the legendary actor, writer and comedian John Cleese, convenes the University of Virginia's Division of Perceptual Studies (DOPS) research faculty to present an overview of the research to which they have dedicated their academic careers. Members of DOPS include GC advisers Bruce Greyson, Kim Penberthy, Edward Kelly, Emily Kelly, as well as Jim Tucker and Chester Carlson.
Quantum gravity and taoist cosmology – Steven Rosen
Here, a detailed analysis of cosmogony is offered, first in terms of the theory of dimensional development and its Taoist (yin-yang) counterpart, then in terms of the evolution of the elemental force particles through cycles of expansion and contraction in a spiraling universe.
Interview with Ervin Laszlo – Coronavirus and Humanity
According to 2-time nominated Nobel Peace Laureate, Ervin Laszlo, we are at a critical time for humanity, a bifurcation where we can go two ways, either into a state of chaos, where we won't survive, or to a higher state of consciousness.
Pauli’s Dream – Jung, Modern Physics and Alchemy – Steven Rosen
C. G. Jung devoted much of his life to exploring the dark borderland between psyche and matter. While engaged in that inquiry, he corresponded with physicist Wolfgang Pauli and was drawn to the phenomena of quantum mechanics. Just what is it about modern physics that invites intimate contact with the psyche? In examining this question, we see the broader need for setting physics and psychology on a new philosophical foundation consonant with the integrative worldview of alchemy studied by Jung.
Interview with Dr Peter Fenwick – Consciousness and Dying
Author of several books including 'The Art Of Dying,' 'The Truth In The Light' and 'The Hidden Door' neuro-psychiatrist and Galileo Commission adviser Dr Peter Fenwick talks about his research into End of Life Experiences and deathbed phenomena and what these mean in the greater picture of who we really are.
Inner Experience – Direct Access to Reality – Harald Walach
I propose such a complementarist dual aspect model of consciousness and brain, or mind and matter. This then also entails a different epistemology. For if consciousness is coprimary with matter, then we can also use a deeper exploration of consciousness as happens in contemplative practice to reach an understanding of the deep structure of the world, for instance in mathematical or theoretical intuition, and perhaps also in other areas such as in ethics. This would entail a kind of contemplative science that would also complement our current experiential mode that is exclusively directed to the outside aspect of our world. Such an epistemology might help us with various issues, such as good theoretical and other intuitions.
Interview with Dr Rupert Sheldrake
In this view for the Galileo Commission, our adviser Ruper Sheldrake shares his views on materialism and how to move beyond it. He discusses the limitations of a dominant materialistic worldview in light of what we know about consciousness, epigenetics, among other empirical observations
Nonlocal consciousness as fundamental – Stephan Schwartz
This change is coming, and I think we should start thinking about this: What will science be like when consciousness becomes a regularly considered aspect in the design of experimental protocols, and how will it affect emerging technologies?
Sue Speaks Podcast – Larry Dossey
Larry’s mission: “My mission is to tell the truth and not shade the truth.” Larry’s one-line message to the world: “Pay Attention. Be astonished. Tell about it.” – Mary Oliver
On the Matrix of Consciousness – Stephen Schwartz
Incorporating a shared vision of what the world could be like if consciousness were acknowledged to be fundamental, then fostering wellbeing at every level, is how you make social change happen. The most powerful human force is the power of shared intention. It is a worldview, not a technology.
Cambridge Scientist Peter Wadhams Explores Consciousness Studies
In this discussion, it is clear that there appeared to be suppression and a lack of promotion of extraordinary experiments conducted by Sir William Crookes and Sir Oliver Lodge. These important experiments demonstrated a relationship between scientific facts and the spiritual dimensions. Smith-Moncrieffe and Wadhams go further and also discuss the rich history of more contemporary scientists who conducted covert experiments in the area of consciousness while maintaining careers in criminology, philosophy, psychology, physics and other mainstream studies. It is clear that those who wanted to pursue parapsychology or consciousness studies in the university would be faced with potential ridicule, limited funding, an unstructured curricula, and lack of incentives.
Rupert Sheldrake Interview – Atheism, Spirituality & Consciousness
In this interview with the "world's most controversial scientist," Rupert Sheldrake takes us on the journey of his life - from a sceptical undergraduate to a ground-breaking scientist.
Challenging Dogmatism In Science – R. Sheldrake & P. Fenwick
In a discussion, moderated by Galileo Commission Chair David Lorimer, Galileo Commission Adviser Dr. Rupert Sheldrake is joined by Dr. Peter Fenwick, who wrote the Preface to the Galileo Commission Report, to discuss the dogmatism in science.
The Coronation – Charles Eisenstein
The coronation marks the emergence of the unconscious into consciousness, the crystallization of chaos into order, the transcendence of compulsion into choice. We become the rulers of that which had ruled us. The New World Order that the conspiracy theorists fear is a shadow of the glorious possibility available to sovereign beings. No longer the vassals of fear, we can bring order to the kingdom and build an intentional society on the love already shining through the cracks of the world of separation.
Sue Speaks Podcast – Russell Targ on Remote Viewing and ESP
Russell’s one-line message to the world - “Since we are all created from the same stardust, we can greatly diminish our suffering, by moving from our ego-based craving and fear, to timeless awareness, and freedom.”
Prof. Dr. Marko Pavliha: Endorsement of the Galileo Commission Report
Prof. Dr. Marko Pavliha expresses his endorsement for the Galileo Commission Report
Mental Healthcare, Virtue, and Human Flourishing
Gratitude, humility, forgiveness, and other positive qualities may have a lot to offer in both psychological research and clinical practice.
What Really Happens When You Die – Interview with Peter Fenwick
In this interview Peter Fenwick talks about near-death-experiences (NDE), death-bed-visitors and how we can achieve a good death. He offers fascinating insights into common phenomena at the end of life, such as premonitions, seeing a light, death-bed-visions and coincidences. In his opinion everybody should know about death and the dying process, because it is a normal part of living.
A New Story of the Universe with Tim Freke
Philosopher Tim Freke invites you around the fire to hear the story of where we have come from, where we are going and why our lives are profoundly meaningful. He shares a new cosmology that unites science and spirituality to inspire and inform us.
