This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century philosophical short story writer, essayist, and poet Jorge Luis Borges's story "The Immortal" which can be found in Collected Fictions. It focuses on on the last parts of the story, after the narrator has found the city of the immortals and become an immortal himself. As it turns out, immortality is not everything mortals lacking it imagine it to be, and the meaning of the endless life they enjoy gets diminished. They decide to seek out the river that grants mortality, and the narrator succeeds in finding it To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 4000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler Get Borges' Collected Fictions here - https://amzn.to/3xZnwHA

In this week's episode, Fr. Jacob and Fr. John unpack one of the key features of Paul Kingsnorth's Against the Machine: On the Unmaking of Humanity. Understanding the modern world from the perspective of the "machine," the hosts draw us into a conversation about the inner logic of lent, and how to avoid making it an instance of machine-like faith.

For nearly two thousand years, swords reigned as humanity's weapon of choice—the first tools designed exclusively to kill other humans rather than hunt animals. When archaeologist Paul Gething rediscovered a rusty blade forgotten in a suitcase for thirty years, he unknowingly held one of history's most sophisticated weapons: a seventh-century Northumbrian sword so complex and finely crafted that only a king could have commanded its creation. The Bamburgh Sword tells the story of Anglo-Saxon England from 450 to 1066 AD, when feuding warlords wielded these pattern-welded blades with razor-sharp steel edges and bendy iron cores—weapons so precious they were covered with jeweled handles and ornate scabbards. Today's guest is Edoardo Albert, author of The Perfect Sword: Forging the Dark Ages. We discuss how Bronze Age smiths in Minoan Crete around 1700 BC created the first definitive swords, how the introduction of iron around 1300 BC democratized warfare by putting blades in everyone's hands, and why the Bamburgh Sword represents the pinnacle of Anglo-Saxon craftsmanship. We also explore what was lost when firearms replaced swords—as the Turkish folk hero Köroğlu reportedly lamented: "The rifle was invented, and bravery was ruined."See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this timely and bold book, Against Innocence: Undoing and Remaking the World (U Chicago Press, 2025), Miriam Ticktin explores how a concept that consistently appears as a moral good actually ends up creating harm for so many. Claims to innocence protect migrant children, but often at the expense of their parents; claims to the innocence of the fetus work to punish women. Ticktin shows how innocence structures political relationships, focusing on individual victims and saviors, while foreclosing forms of collective responsibility. Ultimately, she wants to understand how the discourse around innocence functions, what gives it such power, and why we are so compelled by it, while showing that alternative political forms already exist. She examines this process across various domains, from migration, science, and environmentalism to racial and reproductive justice.Throughout the book, Ticktin shows how the concept of innocence intimately shapes why, how, and for whom we should care and whose lives matter—and how this can have devastating consequences when only an exceptional few can qualify as innocent. A politics grounded on innocence justifies a world built on inequality, designating most people—especially the racialized poor—as unworthy, undeserving, and less than human. As an alternative, she explores the aesthetics and politics of “commoning”—a collective regime of living that refuses a liberal politics of individual identity and victimhood. Miriam Ticktin is professor of anthropology at the CUNY Graduate Center and director of the Center for Place, Culture, and Politics. She is the author of Casualties of Care and the coeditor of In the Name of Humanity. Reighan Gillam is Associate Professor in the Department of Latin American, Latino, and Caribbean Studies at Dartmouth College.

His website is https://www.jamestunney.com/ James examines Leon Trotsky as a militant atheist whose vision of permanent, worldwide revolution ultimately leads toward technocracy, posthumanism, and spiritual erasure. He contrasts Trotsky's materialist worldview with Jesus Christ, arguing that Christ represents not a political revolution, but a profound spiritual counter-revolution grounded in moral restraint and inner transformation.

The war on Iran has increasingly narrowed our optic to focus on oil and its global impact. Yet the 4th Industrial Revolution is not centered on oil, but data. So beyond weapon systems, how could data be a central theme of the war with Iran, aka Operation Epic Fury? We need to look at Kashef... Iran's version of Palantir. Kashef is a not a product for sale, but an intelligence backbone to Iran's entire proxy network that aggregates data about its enemies and distributes targeting intelligence to the groups positioned to act on it.

Have you ever wondered what lies beyond the physical world we see? Or why so many people today feel a deep connection to something bigger than Earth? In this mind-glowing episode of the You-est You® Podcast, I sit down with remote viewer and spiritual teacher Elizabeth April to explore the expanding edges of consciousness from remote viewing to extraterrestrial contact and the idea of starseed origins. Elizabeth shares her personal journey, including a life-changing extraterrestrial encounter that awakened her to the reality that consciousness is far more vast than we've been taught. Yeah…this is not a shallow end of the pool conversation.  We explore questions like: ✨ What remote viewing actually is ✨ The idea of the Galactic Federation ✨ Why many people feel they may be starseeds ✨ How empaths can stay grounded in intense energies (one of my favorites was a simple but powerful technique for empaths) If you're curious about the bigger picture of consciousness, this conversation will absolutely stretch your perspective. If this podcast has touched, moved, or inspired you in any way, thank you for sharing it with those you love and leaving a review if inspired. It helps for more people to find out about these conversations.   And in case you didn't know this, I honor your light and your You-est You, and love you just the way you are.   Takeaways Elizabeth April identifies as a remote viewer, exploring beyond physical reality. Her abduction experience opened her eyes to the reality of extraterrestrials. Growing up in a Catholic household, Elizabeth had unique spiritual experiences. Empathy can lead to overwhelming feelings, requiring grounding techniques. The Galactic Federation is a collective of beings supporting unity consciousness. Personal empowerment is key to navigating spiritual awakening. Distraction from external chaos can hinder personal growth and awareness. Connecting to source reveals the unity of all existence beyond light and dark. Grounding techniques like visualizing a protective bubble can help empaths. Elizabeth's heritage includes connections to the grays and Pleiadians.   About Elizabeth April Elizabeth April is an internationally recognized remote viewer, spiritual teacher, and cosmic channeler who helps people expand their awareness beyond the physical world. Through her teachings on consciousness, extraterrestrial contact, and starseed origins, she guides others to reconnect with their intuition, personal empowerment, and deeper connection to the universe.

This week's In Class With Carr comes from Montgomery Alabama, site of the Second Annual National Fred D. Gray Symposium. We return to Alabama to reflect on how human and civil rights struggles waged here force us to consider contemporary questions of transitioning US and global Social Structures and Africana Ways of Knowing. Anchored by reflections from the Symposium and along the Selma-to-Montgomery trail, the Black Hospital Movement, and figures from Fred Gray and JoAnn Bland to the students of HBHS Tuskegee High School and many others, we continue the work of Africana Studies as “Intellectual CSI.” U.S. Reconstruction's unfinished promises demand a renegotiation anchored in Africana Governance logics in order to resist exclusion and collectively re-center our common humanity in a post-Western world.Are you a member of Knarrative?

How does God reveal Himself in the Old Testament to us? And where does His Son Jesus peer through?John 1:18 tells us, "No one has ever seen God; God the only Son, who is at the Father's side, He has made Him known."So Jesus, who is the Word, makes visible that which is not visible. We cannot see God in His essence. We would be consumed by that. But what is the Son's unique role? The Son's role is to mediate for us, the Father by the Spirit, so that we can see the unseeable. So that we can know and relate to that which appears to be unknowable. >>Watch on YouTubeDr. Mark Gignilliat is professor of divinity at Beeson Divinity School, where he teaches courses in Old Testament and Hebrew. Mark also serves as theologian in residence at St. Peter's Anglican Church in Birmingham. Dr. Gignilliat is married to Naomi, and they have four children.

There is a peculiar mercy in the way Our Lord heals. We, in our modern cleverness, are often inclined to imagine that healing ought to be immediate, painless, and, above all, understandable. Yet in the Gospel we encounter something altogether different: a healing that begins in mystery, passes through obedience, and ends in sight. It's the restoration of not merely the eyes, but even more magnificently the soul.Consider the man born blind whom Christ meets on the roadside. The disciples, like many of us, are preoccupied with explanations: Who sinned? Who is to blame? But Our Lord will not be trapped in that small courtroom of human reasoning. Instead, He stoops to the ground, makes clay, anoints the blind man's eyes, and sends him to wash in the Pool of Siloam.Now this is a strange prescription if one pauses to think about it. Mud upon the eyes does not look like medicine; it looks rather like further blindness. And yet the man obeys. He goes to the pool, washes, and returns seeing.Here we begin to glimpse a truth that is as unsettling as it is hopeful: the true source of healing is not the pool, nor the clay, nor even the man's obedience in itself. The source is Christ. The pool is merely the place where trust meets grace.Many of us wander through life rather like that blind man though we seldom admit it. Our sight may be sharp enough to read the morning paper, but we stumble in darker matters: forgiveness, meaning, love, hope. We seek remedies in every direction—self-improvement, distraction, ambition—yet find that none quite reaches the deeper wound.For the soul's blindness is not cured by clearer information. It is cured by encounter.Christ does not merely instruct the blind man; He touches him. And that touch begins a process. First comes the clay, then the journey, then the washing, then the sight. In much the same way, the healing of the human soul rarely arrives as a sudden bolt of lightning. More often it comes disguised as small acts of trust: a prayer whispered in uncertainty, a forgiveness offered when it is undeserved, a step taken toward God when we can hardly see the road ahead.Indeed, the curious thing is that Christ often places clay upon our eyes before He gives us sight. He allows circumstances that confuse us, humble us, even darken our view of ourselves. Yet these moments are not evidence of His absence but of His craftsmanship. The Great Physician is preparing the eyes of the heart.And when at last we wash, when we surrender our cleverness and come honestly before Him, we begin to see. Not perfectly, not all at once, but truly. We see that we are known and loved.We see that grace was at work long before we recognized it. And, most astonishing of all, we begin to see Christ Himself.The pool of Siloam was never the final destination. It was only the place where the blind man discovered that the One who sent him there was, in fact, the Light of the World. And so it remains. Every true healing of the soul begins and ends in Him. For Christ does not merely restore sight; He gives us a new way of seeing altogether. --- Help Spread the Good News --- Father Brian's homilies are shared freely thanks to generous listeners like you.

#407 In this episode, Guy welcomed Gabi Kovalenko to discuss the evolution of consciousness, the human biofield, and humanity's choices between organic autonomy and technology dependence. Gabi described reality as entangled fields (electromagnetic, scalar, plasma) and says current solar activity, CMEs, and biophoton "plasmic" influx can dysregulate those without inner coherence, while supporting awakening, introspection, and integration for others. They contrast seeking external "false light" or comfort with using illumination to metabolize trauma and restore love-based coherence, emphasizing integrity between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Gabi warned of transhumanist "artificial code" as a potential severing from soul/morphogenetic fields, while arguing coherent living can harmonize with higher DNA potential. They touched on felt support beyond the physical, retreats, her book "Falling Up," and her sessions and women's course. About Gabi: Gabi Kovalenko is a transformational thought leader and modern philosopher with a pro-consciousness approach to personal development and mindful living. Gabi integrates principles of noetic science and positive psychology into her philosophy to shed light on the nexus of science and spirituality, revealing the power of consciousness and potentiality within all of life. Her approach revitalizes spiritual concepts by offering a refreshing take on the self-evident truth of universal order that connects people of all ages to their innate wisdom and purpose. Since an early age, she has demonstrated signs of divine wisdom speaking through her and has always been unique, original, and deeply philosophical. She perceives reality through the lens of higher consciousness, even in spite of her young age. These days, individuals like herself are often considered old souls, starseeds, or prodigies, but her humble personality doesn't like to identify with such labels. Gabi's passion lies in inspiring a fresh awareness of life by disarming limiting beliefs with self-awareness and igniting a paradigm shift towards joy, abundance, love, passion, and freedom to help an individual construct the inner world of their choosing and, in doing so, contribute to the formation of a better one for us all.

What is the deeper spiritual meaning behind the rising global conflicts we're witnessing today?In this powerful conversation, Sheila Gillette—channeling the collective known as Theo—explains that humanity is not simply facing political turmoil, but a profound shift in consciousness. According to Theo, the old systems built on fear, control, and separation are collapsing, forcing humanity to confront a deeper truth: we are not separate nations, races, or cultures—we are one species sharing one planet.As global tensions rise and institutions begin to crack, this discussion explores why chaos often precedes transformation. Theo reveals that humanity is moving into a new evolutionary phase where collaboration, self-awareness, and personal responsibility will shape the future. If you've been feeling that the world is going through something bigger than politics or economics, this conversation offers a powerful perspective on why the old world is dissolving—and what may be emerging in its place.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.Take your spiritual journey to the next level with Next Level Soul TV — our dedicated streaming home for conscious storytelling and soulful transformation.Experience exclusive programs, original series, movies, tv shows, workshops, audiobooks, meditations, and a growing library of inspiring content created to elevate, heal, and awaken.

Is humanity entering a new phase of consciousness evolution? In this fascinating presentation, we explore the re-evolution of consciousness, the merging of the Christos and Sophia energies, and the emergence of new multidimensional awareness. Through channeling, sound frequencies, and intuitive insights, this talk dives into crystalline blueprints, echolocation of consciousness, and the mysterious Aurora time spiral said to connect humanity to higher harmonic realities. Jess is a metaphysical conduit devoted to exploring the many expressions of consciousness through deep self-study, research, and direct experience. Her work blends oracle-style channeling, intuitive divination, and energetic mapping practices she describes as clair-graphy, a process of reading energetic blueprints and frequency grids within the human field. Jess focuses on restoring angelic crystalline DNA, awakening intuitive channels, and helping individuals recognize synchronicity as a universal language guiding personal and collective evolution.

In this episode of Catching Up, Nate McClennen and Mason Pashia explore what's changing in education—and what should change next—through the lenses of infrastructure, accountability, and emerging technology. They discuss a "smart city" view of transportation and connectivity, unpack new research on how parents respond to grades vs. standardized test data, and examine a Florida study on how school choice competition impacts performance. The conversation then shifts to the Future of Tech and Work, including AI agents and the incentive structures shaping major AI companies—ending with a clear call to invest in "relational infrastructure" so that human connection, trust, and agency grow alongside AI.

In this EMRA*Cast episode of Bridging Health and Humanity, host Natalie Hernandez speaks with Dr. Maya Yiadom, MD, MPH, MSCI, an associate professor and director of Precision Analytics and Data Integration in Emergency Medicine at Stanford, about how artificial intelligence is reshaping emergency care.  They discuss practical AI already in use (predictive analytics and ambient AI scribes), how AI can be designed from clinical workflows to improve detection and timeliness (for example, speeding recognition of STEMI), and the promise of tools that reduce documentation burden and support decision-making.  Dr. Yiadom also grapples with real risks — biased training data, subgroup performance, privacy and cloud constraints — and emphasizes protecting trainee learning while teaching residents how to use AI responsibly. She closes on an optimistic note: AI as a fail-safe that augments clinicians' judgment rather than replaces the human art of medicine.

In this conversation he shares:Insider Nashville tips – from the bustling “Country Row” on Broadway to the hidden gems of Midtown (Live Oak, Tin Roof, Odie's) and his favorite food spots, including McDougal's hot chicken and Edley's BBQ.Songwriting stories – the spontaneous creation of “Runaway Romeo” during COVID, the narrative mystery behind “Spell on Me,” and the heartfelt tribute “Take Me Back to Lexington” that bridges his Kentucky roots with his Nashville life.The business side of being indie – why Lee founded his own publishing entity, Little Radical LLC, how he navigates self‑promotion, and the challenges and freedoms of running a solo label.Stagecraft and vulnerability – candid moments from his first Nashville gig, opening for Flo Rida, and the mental tricks musicians use to calm nerves before stepping on stage.Music as healing – the song U2's “Bad” that helped him through his dad's near‑fatal car accident, and his belief that music is “God's voice,” a language that connects us across languages, cultures, and generationsWhether you're a songwriter looking for inspiration, a budding indie artist curious about the business, or just someone who needs a reminder that music can mend the soul, this episode delivers raw honesty, practical advice, and a whole lot of heart.Grab your headphones, press play, and let Lee's story remind you why, when words fail, music always speaks.

Part 2 of our recent conversation with Andres Gomez Emilsson asks whether humanity should create machines capable of real consciousness and intention. We explore how artificial minds would feel, what they would desire, and why their motivations might drift far from human needs. The discussion examines the risks of building entities with their own internal harmony, suffering, and evolutionary direction. What emerges is a sober look at whether a machine god is something humanity actually wants.Part 1: https://youtu.be/sveAvEU9ZZQPATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADOX LOST PRE-SALE: https://buy.stripe.com/7sY7sKdoN5d29eUdYddEs0bHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-herePARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-show00:00 Go! 00:00:00 Framing of artificial consciousness00:05:39 Limits of simulation and what counts as real experience00:10:10 Architectures that might support unified consciousness00:13:17 Feeling, stakes, and the origins of motivation00:16:02 Binding and coherence in biological and artificial systems00:21:19 Intention, internal experience, and projected futures00:26:27 Should artificial consciousness be created00:29:58 Why people want AGI and how bias shapes belief00:35:29 AI as an amplifier of human intention00:41:14 Tools for autonomy versus creating synthetic beings00:47:04 Social divergence and the future of AI entrepreneurship00:51:17 Artificial consciousness as a new lineage of life00:57:06 Desire, autonomy, and alien motivation01:03:35 Long-tail dynamics of conscious experience01:10:47 Why standard suffering metrics miss the extremes01:12:10 DMT and the treatment of cluster headaches01:20:09 Consciousness distributed through the body01:21:48 Psychedelics and large-scale system recalibration01:26:13 Systems must contain a model of “better” to self-organize01:33:34 Physiological roots of consciousness and future directions #AGI #ArtificialConsciousness #MachineConsciousness #ConsciousnessStudies #QualiaResearch #AIPhilosophy #AIethics #AISafety #FutureOfAI #MindAndMachine #DemystifySci #physicspodcast, #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

In this episode, Bard MBA faculty member and Lead the Change host Renay Loper sits down with colleague and fellow Bard MBA instructor Ayana Fernandes Pilgrim, founder and CEO of the Talent Cornerstone, for a candid conversation about the seismic shifts reshaping the future of work. Drawing on decades of experience leading global talent initiatives, Ayana examines the dangerous intersection of declining DEI commitments and the rapid rise of AI in hiring. She introduces the concept of "divine dualism" to describe AI's simultaneous promise and peril, makes the case for why soft skills are actually the essential skills of the new economy, and offers practical guidance for employees and job seekers on how to shift from an employee consciousness to an ownership mindset and lead themselves well in an era of relentless change.

In this episode, Rachel sits down with author and illustrator Andy Pizza to explore why a "creative pulse" is the essential, make-or-break component of any successful career. Andy argues that while business often relies on data and logic, the true differentiator is the ability to show up with a unique, human point of view. The conversation covers: Strategic vs. exploratory creativity: How to use creativity to solve specific business problems by working backward from a goal. The "input diet": Why being mindful of what you consume—from art to fiction—is vital for generating fresh ideas. The heroine's journey: A collaborative approach to success that prioritizes collective effort over the "solo hero" myth. Writing on stage: A method for testing creative hunches in low-stakes environments to build confidence and skill. Creativity in the age of AI: Why tapping into the "humanity side" remains the most important skill as technology evolves. Andy Pizza's website Andy's Creative Pep Talk podcast Modern Mentor is hosted by Rachel Cooke. A transcript is available at Simplecast.Have a question for Modern Mentor?

Let's dive right into it: AI might seem like it's got empathy down to a science, but let's not kid ourselves; it's all a simulation. In this episode, Dr. Skinner breaks down how while AI can mimic compassion, it's about as deep as a kiddie pool—no real understanding of human suffering here, folks. We also chat about the church's crucial role in fostering genuine community and embodied presence, especially when people are feeling more isolated than ever. You know, instead of letting a chatbot do the emotional heavy lifting, how about we show up for each other? Jesus wept at Lazarus' tomb, and that's a pretty solid reminder that real ministry comes from being present and sharing in each other's pain. So grab a comfy seat, pour yourself a cup of whatever, and let's explore how we can bridge that empathy gap—because the church has a unique calling to step into the messiness of life, not just observe from the sidelines. In a world where technology often overshadows human connection, this episode delves into the critical conversation surrounding AI's role in empathy and the church's mission to provide genuine presence. Dr. Skinner shares the story of a widow who, feeling isolated in her grief, turns to an AI chatbot for solace. This moment serves as a stark reminder of the loneliness many face and prompts us to question why our communities sometimes fail to provide the support that people desperately need. The discussion highlights the limitations of AI in truly understanding human suffering, contrasting it with the church's potential to embody compassion through real relationships. The episode also touches on the theological aspects of presence, drawing parallels to Jesus' emotional response to Lazarus' death. Dr. Skinner asserts that empathy is not just about knowing the right answers, but about being willing to share in others' pain. This understanding calls the church to action, encouraging it to foster environments where people can truly be known and supported. As technology continues to advance, the church must not shy away from its mission to offer authentic community and care. Practical implications are discussed, including the need for churches to train members in the ministry of presence, address the epidemic of loneliness, and utilize technology to enhance, not replace, personal connections. Ultimately, the conversation is a clarion call for the church to embrace its unique role in a world longing for genuine human interaction.Takeaways:AI might sound empathetic, but let's be real, it can't truly suffer or understand your pain like a human can.The church's unique role is all about genuine connection and community; we can't let technology take that away from us.Loneliness is a growing problem, and we need to step up as a church to provide real relationships, not just digital interactions.Training in the ministry of presence is crucial; we need to learn how to genuinely listen and connect with others in their suffering.Links referenced in this episode:amazon.comThis podcast uses the following third-party services for analysis: Podcorn - https://podcorn.com/privacyOP3 - https://op3.dev/privacy

Fr. Mike teaches us more about the divine and human natures of the second person of the Holy Trinity, the Word that became flesh, Jesus Christ. Jesus became like us in all things but sin; as such, he has a human soul, intellect, will, and body without losing any of his divinity. Father Mike tells us that in his human nature, Jesus thought with a human mind, worked with human hands, and loved with a human heart. Christ needed to learn things, and he increased in wisdom and understanding. The full humanity and true divinity of Jesus is a great mystery of our faith.

We explore the truth that Jesus Christ is fully God and fully man; he is one person with two natures, both Divine and human. Fr. Mike explains that we call Mary the Mother of God because, from the very moment of his conception, Jesus was fully God and fully human. Fr. Mike also goes over heresies in the history of the Church that have denied the humanity of Christ, rejected the divinity of Christ, or confused the fact that Jesus is the Son of God by nature. The Church has always responded by affirming that Jesus Christ is truly the Son of God who became a man and our brother without ceasing to be God and Lord.
