Alex Gómez-Marín is a controversial figure in contemporary neuroscience, known for challenging the materialist framework that dominates scientific accounts of consciousness. He argues that Near Death Experiences (NDEs) raise profound questions about the nature of reality and the limits of reductionist explanation. In this interview, Gómez-Marín reflects on the scientific evidence we have for NDEs and what they might mean for answering ultimate questions about the purpose of human existence. Àlex Gómez-Marín is a Theoretical physicist and neuroscientist, Associate Professor at the Instituto de Neurociencias of Alicante in Spain, and director of the Pari Center in Italy.Please do email us at podcast@iai.tv with any of your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such talks live, buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The relationship between mind and matter | Slavoj Žižek, Alenka Zupančič and Carlo Rovelli

Philosophy for our times

The self and the world We tend to think of ourselves as observers of the world and experience as something different from the material stuff that makes up reality. Yet at the same time as human beings, we are at once part of the universe and part of that reality. And this profoundly puzzling relationship, that we are both part of something and yet separate from it, has been at the centre of Western thought. Materialists claim there is only physical material. But if so, thought, experience, and consciousness become illusory. Idealists argue there is only consciousness, but then it is reality that becomes an illusion. While dualists hold that both the self and the world exist, but that the connection between the two is mysterious. Is the self part of the world or necessarily outside of it? Was Kant right that the distinction between subject and object is necessary for experience to be possible? Or are these deep metaphysical questions beyond us, and our theories and language incapable of uncovering the ultimate state of things?Slavoj Žižek is one of the most famous philosophers in the world and is the author of more than 50 books, including most recently at the time of the debate Zero Point. Alenka Zupančič is a leading Lacanian philosopher and social theorist. She is a professor at The European Graduate School and at the University of Nova Gorica. Joining from America, Carlo Rovelli is a leading theoretical physicist, the author of several best-selling books, and a founding figure in the field of quantum gravity. His recent book, Reality Is Not What It Seems, has ethical implications for the nature of the self and personal identity. Jack Symes hosts.

Is consciousness something the brain produces—or is the brain an interface for something far more vast?In the first episode of Radical Reality, a new series within The Future of Wellness, Keith Parker is joined by sound healer, researcher, and teacher Tom Kenyon for a deep inquiry into consciousness, mind, sound, and non-local awareness.Radical Reality is inspired by Keith's first book of the same name and explores one of the most fundamental questions of our time: what are we really—and how do we know? These conversations are not debates. They are open-ended inquiries, shaped by lived experience and informed by science, philosophy, and contemplative traditions.Tom Kenyon's work sits at a rare intersection of neuroscience and mysticism, psychotherapy and sound, rigorous inquiry and direct experience. Over several decades, he has explored how sound, frequency, and vibration interact with the nervous system—and how altered states of consciousness can be accessed, stabilised, and integrated.In this conversation, Keith and Tom explore:Whether consciousness is produced by the brain or accessed through itSound as a bridge between states of awarenessNon-local mind, attention, and subtle fieldsThe limits of scientific measurement when studying consciousnessDirect experience versus conceptual models of realityWhy modern culture struggles to integrate inner knowingThis episode serves as an entry point—and a point of orientation—for the Radical Reality series ahead.About Radical RealityRadical Reality is a cross-disciplinary inquiry into consciousness, reality, and existence itself. The series brings together voices from science, spirituality, psychology, and lived experience to explore where current models break down—and what might emerge beyond them.Learn more: https://tomkenyon.com/Enjoyed the episode?

How do we understand the world and our place in it? Do our lives consist of a small number of dramatic turning points, or is there nothing but a series of gradual changes from infancy to old age? Are political elections genuinely transformational, or merely arbitrary points along a shifting cultural timeline? And in physics, how can the continuities of general relativity coexist with the discontinuities of quantum theory? In Waves and Stones, Graham Harman shows that this paradoxical interaction – the question of whether reality is made up of sudden jumps, or is laid out along a gentle gradient with no clear divisions between the various things in the world – permeates every area of human life. What's more, this paradox is as old as human thought itself. In exploring how the continuous and discrete relate to each other, he takes us on a kaleidoscopic journey from the philosophers of ancient Greece, through the writings of the great Arab historian Ibn Khaldun, through architectural and evolutionary theory, the compatibility of religion with science, and the wave-particle duality of matter. To explore the relationship between the continuous and the discrete, Harman shows, is to consider the very fabric of reality. With this dazzling new book, he proposes a new way of thinking about this ancient problem, with profound implications for our understanding of ourselves and the bewilderingly complex world in which we live.

Do Aliens Speak Physics?: And Other Questions about Science and the Nature of Reality (Whiteson & Warner, 2025) is a mind-bending exploration into what it would mean, scientifically and philosophically, for humans to communicate with an extraterrestrial intelligence through the language of physics. Daniel Whiteson, a particle physicist, and Andy Warner tackle deep questions: Are concepts like "number," "space," "time," and "laws of nature" universal, or are they shaped by our biology, culture, and perception? What assumptions do we make that might not translate to a species evolved under utterly different conditions? The book pushes us to examine where physics ends and human perspective begins, to reflect on whether alien minds might think mathematics differently, sense reality differently, or have radically different "basic science." Join us on SETI Live as communications specialist Beth Johnson speaks with co-author Daniel Whiteson about the surprising places he found ambiguity, what assumptions underlie science as we know it, and what our notion of physics might reveal — or blind us to — when grappling with alien intelligence.

Ep. 196 (Part 2 of 2) | n the twelfth dialogue of the A. H. Almaas Wisdom Series, Hameed Ali guides us into the profound experience of pure being, which lies at the core of all mystical teachings. There are two nondual ways of experiencing the fullness of being, he explains. We can recognize we are infinite and boundless—as if we were the sky, but still experiencing this through our being—or, we can experience the oneness of being from the perspective of all manifestation: the mountain, the rocks, the molecules and atoms... “Wherever you go, physically or mentally, is pure being.” Hameed calls the first recognition “unity,” and the latter “oneness.”Hameed clarifies the paradox of nothingness: “being and nothing are two ways of knowing the same thing; you can feel it as a fullness or you can feel it as an emptiness.” And he explains that being being and knowing being are the same thing, when knowing is understood in its deeper sense as gnosis. “Awakening is knowing our being or our awareness for what it is,” he says. Why is Hameed so uniquely articulate in talking about the experience of pure being? John asks him. This talk is an amazing teaching—visual and sensory, scientific and mathematical, deeply mystical and spiritual—Hameed comes at the subject of pure being from all angles.

Are we living in a simulation… or are we part of a dream imagined by God?In this thought-provoking episode of The Infinite Spark of Being, we explore the ancient and modern theories that question the very nature of reality. From Hinduism's concept of Maya to Gnostic Christianity, Sufi mysticism, and Buddhist philosophy—alongside modern thinkers like Elon Musk, Nick Bostrom, and quantum physicists—you'll hear powerful perspectives that suggest this world may not be as solid as it seems.We also explore indigenous cosmologies, paranormal researchers, and simulation theorists who all point to one central truth: what we're experiencing might be a dream, a test, or a program. But more importantly—does it matter? If this was proven to be a simulation, what would change about how you live?Whether you believe in the divine, simulation theory, or just want to think more deeply about your place in the cosmos, this episode is your invitation to wake up from the illusion and live with presence and purpose.✨ Resources Mentioned in This Episode:

Reality is defined by our bandwidth of perception. It is also co-created by sentiency at different levels of self awareness.In June 2025, I will be hosting a lecture event for WalkWithMeNow.com students. The topic for this event is The Nature of Reality.In this article I will touch upon some of the topics we will be exploring in the June event, and if you want to attend that event, join the forum and get prepared and organized. This paragraph will be the extent of my June event announcement as it is open only to dedicated students.Back to The Nature of Reality. I would like to unpack my first paragraph in this article a little bit so we can further explore it on our podcast, Driving To The Rez, as well as the Wisdom Keeper Hour and the Afterparty, which you can join for $8 a month.Let me repeat that paragraph:Reality is defined by our bandwidth of perception. It is also co-created by sentiency at different levels of self awareness.Let's begin with the bandwidth of perception. During the WWMN Monthly QnA in March, the class was “Remote Viewing”, several of the questions that were asked had to do with figuring out the difference between actually seeing something remotely in one's mind's eye, to imagining or daydreaming something. The way I explain the difference is if you can say you are using your perception to perceive something external to you, then it is “viewing” something. But if you are not using perception skills and are creating something with your mind, then it is a daydream. A lot of the skill building for remote viewing has to do with telling the difference between something that is perceived and something that is imagined. Also, much importance is given to something called “analytical overlay”, which is basically a fancy way to say that we perceive something but give it meaning or explanations. In other words, something is perceived, but we often then go ahead and give the data some meaning. The meaning we give it, could be said to be our imagination trying to figure out what we saw.Anything beyond our bandwidth of perception, in other words what we can see, hear, taste, smell, etc., cannot be singularly (by yourself) be proven to exist. We know, however, that physical reality exists beyond our senses because we have people in other places who are there and we know they are there. We also remember being in other places that are not here, in the past.Our perceptions to the past or future are limited to our inner eyes, ears, etc.. We cannot go back to the past, or jump ahead into the future. We can only ever perceive the present. A lot of our inner power, whether mental, emotional, physical, or energetic, can be released if we move our perceptions to the present time and space.As this is an article and not a lecture, let's move onto the second sentence of the paragraph.It is also co-created by sentiency at different levels of self-awareness.There are three key aspects to this part of the nature of reality. One is there are co-creators in it, there is no “one” creator. And you are but one of gazillions of co-creators. However, you are the main co-creator of your own chosen experiences. Even then, though, you need the agreement and power of other co-creators around you to make things happen.Let's now look at “sentiency”. The wiki definition of sentiency is “Sentience is the ability to experience feelings and sensations. It may not necessarily imply higher cognitive functions such as awareness, reasoning, or complex thought processes.”We could say that the ability to experience feelings and sensations is directly related to “perception”. Input goes in, and it is experienced as a feeling or sensation, which we, with our higher cognitive functions, give it a shape, meaning, reason and have complex thoughts around it. But other beings, just get the data and do other things with it.At the end of the day, our reality is what we choose to experience. WE choose to experience. Not just what one person chooses to experience. This is what makes reality a co-creation. Outside the confines of the playing board of physical experience, we are limitless. To enter the board, and have a singular life of experiences here, we limit our perceptions and our omnipotent powers of creation.OK, I hope you enjoyed this article and I am very much looking forward to your thoughts around it.The discussion doesn't stop here—listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

From a near-death experience as a youngster, to being a Marine Corps officer, to being an executive coach. His path began with a profound test of faith during the pandemic, which led him to explore the depths of Christ-consciousness, the multiverse, and the vibrational essence of existence. What started as a spiritual awakening soon expanded into an exploration of quantum mechanics, string theory, and Kabbalah, ultimately reinforcing what Jesus taught about energy, vibration, and frequency. David is also the author of the books, “Whiskey & Yoga”, “The Light Housekeeper”, “Love Letter to the Virgin Mary: The Resurrection of Kind David” & “Becoming One with Christ: The Lessons of King David”.

Bruce takes a deep dive into Stephen Wolfram's ideas regarding computational universality, which may go further than the Church-Turing-Deutsch thesis in that Wolfram's theories imply that all of nature could be simulated even by relatively simple systems, so even nature itself may be computational rather than something that can just be simulated on a turning machine or quantum computer. Stephen Wolfram is a renowned physicist, computer scientists, and entrepreneur. Bruce also talks about the related ideas on philosophy of computation promoted by Rudy Rucker, who is a mathematician, computer scientist, and science fiction author associated with cyberpunk genre. Both thinkers believe, rightly or wrongly, that the complexity of life and the universe can be explained by relatively simple computational rules.
