by Podcast Archives - The Question
Each episode features an original arts/music set that explores truth through creativity, and a thought-provoking presentation. We live in a world of relentless ambiguity, relativism, and contradiction. This complex world that we’re meant to understand is clouded and coloured, almost beyond our comprehension by: a) social, cultural, and economic injustice, b) corruption and hypocrisy in government, business, and organized religion, c) ideological polarization and extremism, d) rampant consumerism, e) existential fatalism, as well as f) fear and apathy. We have become cynical and often superficial, even though our deepest instincts still motivate us to reflect and wonder if there is a path beyond the cynicism and superficiality. We wonder if there is deeper information or higher knowledge that would help illuminate this path and point the way to some understanding; even to some answers. We wonder if there are others like us; others who are wondering as well.<br

TQP 029: The Symmetry Within Part II
Unless we're physicians or psychologists, we don't often engage or fully understand the monumental connected reality of genetics, matter, energy, structure and relationship that enable us to be born and simply exist. From this beginning place, we're flung into all those other connected realities...

TQP 027: The Message of Symmetry Part II
The word “symmetry” leads to questions about meaning, like when we encounter words like “democracy” or “love”.

TQP 023: Words – Beacons of Creative Power or Mere Devices of Communication Part II
A denotation is the objective, largely agreed-upon meaning of a word that can be found in the dictionary, while a connotation is the subjective, personal meaning of a word. But paradoxically, neither are necessarily correct or incorrect. Denotation: If you're a Scrabble or Boggle player, there's…

TQP 020: The Cloud and Our Future Part II

TQP 019: The Cloud and Our Future Part I
We love our personal technology. We love it in all its forms – desktop, handheld, mountable, wearable, drivable, virtual, and imaginable. General technology is difficult to love. Just like a great cheeseburger is much easier to love than the greedy industrial food complex that made it possible.…

TQP 015: Do we really understand Love? II
Why do we try so hard to impose simplicity on such a complex idea? All of the simple if/then formulas for love, no matter how seductive or poetic they are, must be questioned, because love is complexity. What are your own formulas for the meaning of love? Do they appear to be working out? In this...
-
TQP 014: Do we really understand Love? I
We are inundated, overwhelmed and irretrievably smitten by thoughts of love. We are made willing and vulnerable to the images, words, and expressions of love in popular media and the day to day culture that surrounds us. Movies, television, popular music, advertising, social media, food, sports,...

TQP 013: Words – Beacons of Creative Power or Mere Devices of Communication II

TQP 011: The Real Star of Bethlehem

TQP 010: Science & Myth III
Archaeomythology, archeoastronomy, medical archeology, and geomythology have all gradually transformed what was once a one-dimensional wall between science and myth into a multi-dimensional window that allows scientific principles, recorded history, human imagination, and cultural identity to...
-
TQP 009: Science & Myth II
Opening the window between science and myth can bring new clarity about the importance of engaging the question of mystery. Our modern attitudes often make it difficult to engage myth, but when thinkers engage myth as mystery, they cease to be judges. Ancient myths are basically portraits of the...
-
TQP 008: Science & Myth I
Our popular but simple judgments about myth are kind of a smug, self-securing firewall to the apparent ignorance and backwardness of ancient people. We protect our intellectual security against such ancient ignorance by believing nothing when it comes to myth. Could this firewall to the ignorance...

TQP 007: Synchronicity 2B

TQP 006: Synchronicity 2A
What is coincidence? Coincidence is a remarkable or unique concurrence of events without any apparent causal connection.

TQP 005: Synchronicity 1B

TQP 004: Synchronicity 1A
Have you ever had something synchronistic happen to you, and if so, have you ever wondered why? Have you ever had anyone say to you that things happen for a reason, and if so, what was your first response? Sometimes these incidents are convenient, like when a parking space opens up just when you...

TQP 003: The Context of Truth
We can choose to examine a faraway object in the night sky with binoculars or a telescope. Or we can choose to examine a very tiny object with a magnifying glass or a microscope. Sometimes we don't intentionally choose the option that will provide more clarity. Sometimes it's just easier not to....

TQP 002: The Heart and Quantum Consciousness
We've known for over 150 years that electrical impulses passing through a conductive medium generate an electromagnetic field, and evidently, the heart is now known to be a significant conductive medium. Is there a connection between the heart's EM field and Picasso's famous and spontaneous…

ABOUT THIS SHOW
Each episode features an original arts/music set that explores truth through creativity, and a thought-provoking presentation.
We live in a world of relentless ambiguity, relativism, and contradiction. This complex world that we’re meant to understand is clouded and coloured, almost beyond our comprehension by: a) social, cultural, and economic injustice, b) corruption and hypocrisy in government, business, and organized religion, c) ideological polarization and extremism, d) rampant consumerism, e) existential fatalism, as well as f) fear and apathy.
We have become cynical and often superficial, even though our deepest instincts still motivate us to reflect and wonder if there is a path beyond the cynicism and superficiality. We wonder if there is deeper information or higher knowledge that would help illuminate this path and point the way to some understanding; even to some answers.
