Episodes

  1. On entropy, the Creation and the devil

    The complex relationship between consciousness and the force of the universe towards increasing disorder and how this relates to the creation stories and the Devil.

  2. On being hypnotised

    We are hypnotised all the time and the media exploits this for their own purposes.

  3. On intelligence

    There are a number of factors to what what we call intelligence and intelligence and they lay outside of so-called intelligence tests.

  4. On experiencing multiple dimensions

    It's possible to do exercises that enable you to experience the reality of dimensions beyond the 3½ dimensions we usually live in.

  5. On following orders

    Covid has brought out a polarisation of views. One aspect of this is those who follow their consciousness and those that follow rules.

  6. On out of body experiences

    Western medicine doesn't understand the true nature of the mind and body.

  7. On love and understanding

    Our time on earth is to understand opposites.

  8. On quantum theory

    Quantum theory wave and particle duality and consciousness

  9. On past lives and the cosmos

    Why the Atheists are so shallow in their thinking.

  10. On emotions

    On emotions, analogy, statistics and understanding.

  11. On relational and instrumental understanding

    The Milligram experiment showed how people would obey orders in the right circumstances. they will obey rules rather than follow their conscience.

  12. On microagression and trigger words

    Instead of encouraging strength and resilience we are cultivating weakness and immaturity. We have developed a generation of people prone to anxiety and unable to deal with the everyday interactions of society.

  13. On political polarisation and emotional manipulation

    How emotions undermine rationality. In fact it's often the people who talk most often about being rational who are most easily manipulated emotionally. It's a part of what Jung called the shadow.

  14. On mindfulness and meditation

    By moving into the right side of the brain you can detach from thoughts and open yourself up to an awareness of a different dimension of existence.

  15. On mind, body and health

    Doctors are trained to se the body as a machine, but the body and mind cannot be separated.

  16. On time and money

    Time and money can v=be seen in quantum terms - as particles or waves.

  17. On the shortest distance between two points

    The shortest distance between two points in 2, 3, 4 or 5 dimensions.

  18. On Heisenberg, quantum mechanics and what we call 'reality'

    Heisenberg's uncertainty principle in one sense underlies reality. Whether we see a photon as a particle, which is in the moment, or as a wave, which is to see it in time. shows us the two versions of the universe that we live in.

  19. On science and assumptions

    There is science, which requires a certain assumption about the universe, and religion which makes other assumptions. And then there is science as a religion.

  20. On patterns

    Life is patterns within patterns. Two dimensional, three dimensional and more dimensions.

  21. On our multi-dimensional universe.

    We live in a multi dimensional universe of which we can perceive only 3½ dimensions, in that we see the forth dimension (time) in the backwards direction only.

  22. On the law of attraction

    How we attract things towards ourself - and why sometimes we shouldn't.

  23. On science and intuition

    We are told that trusting our gut is unreliable. What people don't realise is that trusting 'logic' and 'science' is also unreliable. Gut - thinking can become more relabel when you learn how it works.

  24. On left and right brain - the four stages of learning

    More on left and right brain thinking and the four stages of learning.

  25. On left and right brain thinking and anxiety, autism, Asperger's

    Autism and Asperger's are related but different syndromes. To understand this you have too understand how the brain works in terms of left and right brain activity. This also relates to mindfulness and anxiety.
