What You See When Your Brain Gets Out of the Way – Bruce Greyson
For almost half a century, professor Bruce Greyson has researched the interface between life and death. He was a materialistically trained doctor when he first came across near death experiences. He was intrigued, began researching them and thought he would soon come up with a simple physical explanation. The more cases he studied, the farther away from that he came. The research material has increased since the 1960s because of our enhanced capability to resuscitate people with cardiac arrest.

The Mystery of Memory: No “Life”, No Memory – A.K. Mukhopadhyay
The issue of memory is mysterious in terms of its acquisition, storage, recall and retrieval. Memory is inextricably intertwined with the phenomenon of subtlety of “life”. So, is the process of learning. This paper builds up a testable theory proposing where there is no life, there is no memory. In this sense, the memory in a lifeless Artificial Device (AI) is a misnomer. So is the term, “Machine Learning”. The mystery calls for investigations on what is “life”, and its link with the memory.
How an emergent cosmology of a nonlocally unified, meaningfully in-formed and holographically manifested Universe can underpin and frame the biological embodiment of quantum entanglement – Jude Currivan
Treating gravity as an emergent consequence of the in-formational and holographic structure of space- time and describing it as the consequence of the intropy associated with the positions in space-time of massive bodies, also points to the findings of the loss of phenotype identity in zero gravity and the role between gravity and cellular identity and the emergence of symbiogenesis.
Interviews with Innocence podcast – Raymond Moody & Paul Perry
In this latest episode, I engage in a fascinating conversation with Dr. Raymond Moody and Paul Perry regarding their recently published work titled "Proof of Life After Life: 7 Reasons to Believe There Is an Afterlife." Our conversation delves into their thorough investigation of this topic and the potential social implications of widespread scientific acknowledgment of the afterlife.
The Conversation: Consciousness: why a leading theory has been branded ‘pseudoscience’
The problem is that consciousness is not merely a scientific issue. The task of science is to explain publicly observable phenomena. But consciousness is not a publicly observable phenomenon: you can’t look inside someone’s brain and see their feelings and experiences. Of course, science theorises about unobservable phenomena, such as fundamental particles, but it only does this to explain what can be observed. In the unique case of consciousness, the phenomenon we are trying to explain is not publicly observable.
The Spiritual Warrior – Breaking the Spellbinding Grip of Artificial Intelligence – Sir Julian Rose
Beings who can inspire and lead. Beings who are completing their training to become spiritual warriors and who are working closely together in order to properly direct “the army of the new resistance” in its task of winning the battle to rid our planet of the demonic, anti life, human and non human entities that will stop at nothing to take possession of our souls.

During this conversation, Father Laurence and podcast hosts Ervin Laszloand Chavalit Frederick Tsao, and moderator Nora Csiszar, delved into a variety of topics concerning the Catholic faith and the modern world; in particular vis-à-vis the sciences and relationships with other faith traditions—all of this with the ultimate goal of building a better world through collaboration rather than competition.
The illusion of East and West – Athena Potari
Athena Potari shares her insights on Hellenism, the ancient civilization of the Mediterranean, the cultural cradle of Western civilization, and the birthplace of Western science, politics, democracy, and philosophy. Her insights reveal that the Hellenistic tradition is also a spiritual tradition of awakening, divine devotion, purification, virtue, non-duality, and self-realization that are usually associated with the spiritual traditions of the East. She shows us that the East-West divide is our illusion.

Methodological Exclusion of the Transcendent? – Alexander Moreira-Almeida & Ralph Hood
This paper discusses (a) what is MET as proposed by Flournoy and the reasons he provided to adopt it, (b) problems with MET, implications for research and theory in religion/spirituality and health, and why the transcendent should be included in psychological, medical and other academic research and theory on spiritual experiences (SE), and (c) some methodological guidelines perform it fruitfully.

Quantum-like mind Significant differences between quantum physics and quantum-like modelling – Sudip Patra
Is mind really quantum? Is there any genuine quantum processes underlying brain functioning? These questions are still not fully answered, but we need to take a non-reductionist approach here.

Do Academic Professionals Believe in Survival and the Paranormal?- IONS Science Team
But, do academic professionals personally believe in the continuation of human consciousness? We tend to think that people who work in academic environments lean more toward skepticism, but is that actually true? If so, what kind of experiment could convince them that human consciousness can survive death? Non-believers would probably require substantial empirical evidence to flip their skepticism. That’s what we set out to explore in our newly published paper.

What Parapsychology Reveals About the Powers of Intention – Mitch Horowitz
Can we alter reality through the power of our minds? Materialism says no, but science says yes. Mitch Horowitz, historian of alternative spirituality and a popular voice for esoteric ideas, joined us for a mind-blowing ConnectIONS Live. He shared how countless scientific studies provide strong evidence for how we can affect reality through the mind and extrasensory perception (ESP).
