Harvey Weinstein, Brett Ratner, Louis CK and James Toback did not respect it. And the women who are now coming forward about their sexual abuse at the hands of these men are only now truly claiming it. It is their SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTYthe right to control their own sexual and physical fatenot being subject to the demands, the whims, the control or the perversion of others. Do you realize that in no country in the world, nor even the United Nations Human Rights Charter, is there any stipulation that women have the rights to their own bodies, says Dr. Saida Dsilets, Ph.D. A thought-leader and speaker on the growing edge of researching ways women can use their minds, bodies, and spirits to create richer lives through their sensual selves, Saida serves as a guide to women who believe in transformation as a lifelong path of learning, discovery, and walk to freedom. Saida points to a quote from Hamash Alidina: 'In a society that benefits from your self-doubt, liking yourself is a rebellious act. Thats how the term SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTY emerged, she says. Its the full ownership of ourselves and our body and our sensual/sexual nature. It is knowing that no person, institution, organization or government has the right to choose what we do with our pleasure, sensuality, sexuality and fertility. That is ours alone to choose. And now the quest is how to usher in a new path that brings men and women into right relation with each other...where SEXUAL SOVEREIGNTY is the cornerstone for both sexes, and is the foundation for building understanding, respect, compassion and strength. A world where physical or psychological oppression is no more. And #METOO isnt necessary. In today's show, Saida speaks to all of this. Her vision is one of healing and growth for all. Most of all she wants women to feel at home in themselves, where they know they belong and that they matteropening up new levels of freedom, joy, self-confidence and achievement.

The Nine Waves of Creation presents a speculative cosmology supported by the recent discovery that galaxies in the universe are not located randomly, but ordered in a way that radically challenges previous cosmological assumptions. If Calleman's ideas -- which are refreshingly wild but rationally argued -- are even partially correct, today's assumptions about the nature of evolution and the evolution of nature will need to be reconsidered.

In 2008, Dr. Eben Alexanders brain was severely damaged by a devastating case of bacterial meningitis, and he lapsed into a week-long coma. It was almost certainly a death sentence, but Dr. Alexander miraculously survived and brought back with him an astounding story (told in his best-seller Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife). During seven days in coma, he was plunged into the deepest realms of consciousness, and came to understand profound truths about the universe we inhabit. What he learned completely violated everything he ever knew about brain, mind and consciousness, and drove him to question some of the most fundamental assumptions of conventional science, leading to a complete flip from his former worldview. The entire scientific community is facing a similar conundrum: how to explain that consciousness is merely a byproduct of the brain when overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise. Ultimately, direct experience is key to fully understanding how we are all connected through the binding force of unconditional love and its unlimited power to heal. Dr. Alexander will speak about his experience since his NDE and his observations about consciousness, mindfulness, healing and love.

The story of King Arthur is known throughout the world, and is being widely publicized this week with the release of Guy Ritchie's new film on the subject starting Charlie Hunnam. The fabled Camelot, Sir Bedivere casting Excalibur into the lake and Arthurs secret burial at the isle of Avalon: These are just a few of the enchanting themes in the ancient saga that historians have long considered to be pure fantasy. Today Dr. Kelly explores The Lost Tomb of King Arthur with athor Graham Phillips who presents compelling evidence that such legends were actually based on real events. During a quest lasting over twenty-five years, Phillips has followed a fascinating trail of historical clues showing Arthur to have been a living warrior who led the Britons around the year 500. He has discovered that the legendary Camelot, Excalibur and Avalon were based on a real city, a real sword and a real island. And, most astonishing of all, Graham has found what he claims to be the location where Arthur was finally buried. An ancient manuscript still persevered at Oxford University, Graham believes, reveals the whereabouts of King Arthurs long-lost tomb. Not in the South West town of Glastonbury, as the popular myth maintains, but at an ancient site in the isolated countryside of central England. With the help of archaeologists employing the very the latest scientific equipment, Graham now has what he is certain is the final proof that this disregarded Dark Age text really does reveal the last resting place of the man behind the legend of King Arthur. Graham Phillips is a British non-fiction author who has investigated historical mysteries since the 1980s. He has investigated such enigmas as King Arthur, Robin Hood, and the death of Alexander the Great, as well as researched various biblical conundrums such as the Holy Grail and the Ark of the Covenant. Phillips has written fifteen published books on these subjects and has appeared in many broadcast documentaries over the years. He lives in England where he works full-time as what he describes as an "historical detective." Graham Phillips has also been described as a modern-day adventurer, and a real-life Indiana Jones.

What is the singularity, and what does it mean for humanity? Explore a transdisciplinary approach at the intersection of the arts, cognitive psychology, deep learning, and philosophy. Guided by Consciousness, Evolution, and Story. Beginning with what conscious state of being (terrestrial and universal) is perceiving. Followed the one constant we can all agree on (or perceive), everything goes through a change process. Lastly, what is the biological/mythological codification that continually unfolds a more complex iteration of reality.Humanity sits poised for a momentous leap in consciousness. Our technology allows us to see further and deeper with every novel invention. At the same time we perceive only a fraction of the universe, and are reminded of our minuscule place in the cosmos. Our language minimizes possibilities, and the potential evolutionary projection. However, our tech reveals novel paradigms and potentially the source code of all creation.
