Should we back the new age-y Ithorians who have a little knowledge, a lot of heart, and no resourcing? Or well-funded, profit-minded (put poorly budgeted) Czerka? Hard choice, I know. But what if I told you that one of these pathways introduces one of the greatest droids of all time...

How do we bridge divides when truth is so fiercely contested? In our search for moral clarity, what inner practices can help us hold multiple perspectives in a graceful manner, without collapsing into cynicism or false certainty? And what can we learn—about power, empathy, fairness, and truth—from someone who has stood at the intersection of journalism, faith, and one of the world's most intractable conflicts?Find out from Gregory N. Khalil, exclusively in conversation with Dr. Hitendra Wadhwa on Intersections Podcast.Gregory Khalil is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Journalism in the Columbia Journalism School at Columbia University in the City of New York. He is the co-founder and President of Telos, a Washington D.C.-based non-profit that equips American leaders and their communities to better engage seemingly intractable conflict. Much of Telos' work has centered on the role of faith leaders and culture shapers in America's relationship to Israel/Palestine and the broader Middle East. Prior to founding Telos, Greg was a legal and communications adviser to Palestinian leaders on peace negotiations with Israel. Greg is also a founding member and chair of the board of directors of Narrative 4, a global non-profit that seeks to use story and media to cultivate empathy across divides. He has lectured internationally and his writing has appeared in leading media including The New York Times and The Review of Faith & International Affairs.In this episode, Gregory reveals:- Powerful inner practices that can help us navigate contradictions without falling into cynicism or false certainty- What separates exemplary changemakers from the rest—and what step quietly precedes meaningful action

I, Stewart Alsop, am thrilled to welcome Xathil of Poliebotics to this episode of Crazy Wisdom, for what is actually our second take, this time with a visual surprise involving a fascinating 3D-printed Bauta mask. Xathil is doing some truly groundbreaking work at the intersection of physical reality, cryptography, and AI, which we dive deep into, exploring everything from the philosophical implications of anonymity to the technical wizardry behind his "Truth Beam."Check out this GPT we trained on the conversationTimestamps01:35 Xathil explains the 3D-printed Bauta Mask, its Venetian origins, and its role in enabling truth through anonymity via his project, Poliepals.04:50 The crucial distinction between public identity and "real" identity, and how pseudonyms can foster truth-telling rather than just conceal.10:15 Addressing the serious risks faced by crypto influencers due to public displays of wealth and the broader implications for online identity.15:05 Xathil details the core Poliebotics technology: the "Truth Beam," a projector-camera system for cryptographically timestamping physical reality.18:50 Clarifying the concept of "proof of aliveness"—verifying a person is currently live in a video call—versus the more complex "proof of liveness."21:45 How the speed of light provides a fundamental advantage for Poliebotics in outmaneuvering AI-generated deepfakes.32:10 The concern of an "inversion," where machine learning systems could become dominant over physical reality by using humans as their actuators.45:00 Xathil's ambitious project to use Poliebotics for creating cryptographically verifiable records of biodiversity, beginning with an enhanced Meles trap.Key InsightsAnonymity as a Truth Catalyst: Drawing from Oscar Wilde, the Bauta mask symbolizes how anonymity or pseudonyms can empower individuals to reveal deeper, more authentic truths. This challenges the notion that masks only serve to hide, suggesting they can be tools for genuine self-expression.The Bifurcation of Identity: In our digital age, distinguishing between one's core "real" identity and various public-facing personas is increasingly vital. This separation isn't merely about concealment but offers a space for truthful expression while navigating public life.The Truth Beam: Anchoring Reality: Poliebotics' "Truth Beam" technology employs a projector-camera system to cast cryptographic hashes onto physical scenes, recording them and anchoring them to a blockchain. This aims to create immutable, verifiable records of reality to combat the rise of sophisticated deepfakes.Harnessing Light Speed Against Deepfakes: The fundamental defense Poliebotics offers against AI-generated fakes is the speed of light. Real-world light reflection for capturing projected hashes is virtually instantaneous, whereas an AI must simulate this complex process, a task too slow to keep up with real-time verification.The Specter of Humans as AI Actuators: A significant future concern is the "inversion," where AI systems might utilize humans as unwitting agents to achieve their objectives in the physical world. By manipulating incentives, AIs could effectively direct human actions, raising profound questions about agency.Towards AI Symbiosis: The ideal future isn't a human-AI war or complete technological asceticism, but a cooperative coexistence between nature, humanity, and artificial systems. This involves developing AI responsibly, instilling human values, and creating systems that are non-threatening and beneficial.Contact Information*   Polybotics' GitHub*   Poliepals*   Xathil: Xathil@ProtonMail.com

This month marks five years since 2020 and a summer of protest across the world for Black lives, dignity, and justice. There was a lot of hope during that summer—hope that our communities would begin to ask questions about our history; pursue lasting, structural changes to our society; and begin to take serious steps towards true repair.In the years since, we've worked hard at Telos to create space for this work through our ReStory US Program. In this episode, we have a conversation in review of what the past 5 years have meant for that program and for our nation: Where have we seen it work, how has the world changed around it, and what might be its future as we continue to face mounting challenges to honest conversations about race, history, and justice in this country. We were delighted to have Director of US Programming, Dr. DeSean Dyson, Telos' co-founder and Executive Director, Todd Deatherage, and former Director of ReStory US and current Sprout NOLA Co-Executive Director, Administration and Operations, Yvonne Therese Holden, with us for this important conversation.--If you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos NewsletterRead and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking Sprout NOLAYvonne's Video Game Recommendation: South of Midnight

Send us a textStep into the extraordinary world of Paul of Venus, a spiritual guide who shares his profound connection with Mount Shasta—a sacred mountain acting as a cosmic gateway between dimensions. Through his personal journey of surrender and transformation, Paul reveals how this magnificent mountain serves as home to multiple civilizations across dimensions, including the fifth-dimensional Lemurian realm of Telos.The conversation takes us deep into the nature of multidimensional reality as Paul  explains how Mount Shasta's natural vortexes, created by intersecting ley lines, form portals that allow direct communication with Ascended Masters, Pleiadians, Venusians, and other higher-dimensional beings. These energetic gateways offer humanity unprecedented access to higher consciousness during our current planetary transition."We are at an ending of a civilization, of a human cycle, and the beginning of a new human cycle," Paul shares, offering a perspective that frames our current global challenges as catalysts for collective awakening. His message of hope emphasizes that the fifth-dimensional Earth already exists alongside our reality—not as a distant future promise, but as an accessible frequency we can tune into through conscious awareness and the alchemical transformation of our fears and judgments.Perhaps most touching is Paul's personal story of physical and spiritual brokenness, which led him to Mount Shasta where Ascended Master Saint Germain guided him through a profound healing journey. Through complete surrender to divine will, Paul reconnected with his Venusian origins and discovered his mission to help humanity remember their true multidimensional nature.For those feeling called to experience Mount Shasta's transformative energies firsthand, Paul offers spiritual tours and retreats designed to create what he calls "eternal moments"—experiences outside linear time where participants can directly perceive higher dimensions and remember their cosmic origins. Whether you're a seasoned spiritual seeker or simply curious about multidimensional realities, this conversation opens doorways to understanding the greater cosmic context of our human experience.Support the show

Matthew David Segall, PhD, is an Associate Professor in the Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness Department at California Institute of Integral Studies in San Francisco, and the Chair of the Science Advisory Committee for the Cobb Institute. He is a transdisciplinary researcher, writer, teacher, and philosopher applying process-relational thought across the natural and social sciences, as well as to the study of consciousness. He describes himself as a “process philosopher” and transdisciplinary researcher, reflecting his commitment to bridging multiple fields​. Segall's work builds on the metaphysical framework of Alfred North Whitehead, extending Whitehead's philosophy of organism into new domains of science, religion, and ecology. In doing so, Segall reinterprets the Western philosophical lineage – from ancient ideas of a world-soul to German Idealism and beyond – to articulate a participatory, organismic vision of nature. His philosophy portrays a cosmos ensouled with meaning and experience, challenging mechanistic materialism and inviting a renewed dialogue between science and spirit​. Segall integrates insights from Whitehead, Schelling, Goethe, and Steiner into a process worldview, develops an organic (panpsychist) cosmology, practices a bold transdisciplinary methodology, and engages public dialogues that embody a form of sacred activism on behalf of our living planet.TIMESTAMPS:(0:00) - Introduction (0:43) - History of Mind-Body Problem(7:40) - Critiquing Physicalism(12:55) - Quantum Theory Interpretations(16:14) - Addressing Illusionism & Scientism(22:00) - The Metaphysics of Prehension(28:14) - Panexperientialism in Physics(31:55) - Propositional Feelings(37:09) - What is Consciousness?(45:00) - Panexperientialism & Free Will(50:00) - Bridging Science & Philosophy(54:42) - Challenging the Cold/Dead Universe tale(1:00:39) - Misconceptions about Matt's work(1:04:20) - Telos(1:07:44) - Matt's Philosopher recommendations(1:13:00) - Mind At Large (Upcoming Events!)(1:17:40) - Conclusion EPISODE LINKS:- Matt's Website: https://footnotes2plato.com-  @Footnotes2Plato : http://www.youtube.com/@Footnotes2Plato- Physics Within the Bounds of Feeling Alone: https://footnotes2plato.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/11/physics-within-the-bounds-of-feeling-alone.pdf- Matt's X: https://x.com/ThouArtThat- Matt's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/matthew.david.segall- Matt's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewdavidsegall- Matt's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/footnotes2platoCONNECT:- Website: https://tevinnaidu.com - Podcast: https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show/mindbodysolution- YouTube: https://youtube.com/mindbodysolution- Twitter: https://twitter.com/drtevinnaidu- Facebook: https://facebook.com/drtevinnaidu - Instagram: https://instagram.com/drtevinnaidu- LinkedIn: https://linkedin.com/in/drtevinnaidu=============================Disclaimer: The information provided on this channel is for educational purposes only.

We have a new ambassador in town. Earlier this month, the US Senate confirmed former Governor of Arkansas, Mike Huckabee, as US Ambassador to Israel. As Ambassador, Huckabee is expected to endorse policies that forcibly promote Israeli government priorities. He has been quoted saying, “there is no such thing as a Palestinian” and that the West Bank is “Judea and Samaria,” a term used by Israeli settlers (and increasingly American Christian leaders) who claim ownership of the land based on their Biblical interpretations.Huckabee, and millions of American Christians like him, champion a theology of Christian Zionism, which prioritizes Jewish ownership of the land between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean Sea by any means necessary.This week, we discuss what that means, especially for the future of the millions of Palestinian in the West Bank, who are facing the most extreme circumstances of violence and displacement seen for decades. And we hear a special, bittersweet update from our colleague Sarah Sturm at the end of the show.  --If you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos NewsletterRead and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking Read Greg's op-ed on the embassy move to Jerusalem circa 2016

"Lux" is unusual for the programme in that it features a mixed live-action and animated format. Filming for the episode took place in  and at  in January 2024.

The projectionist, Reginald Pye, plays films for Lux, who uses his power to recreate Pye's dead wife. Lux has trapped the missing people in a film reel. He similarly traps the Doctor and Belinda, and turns them into cartoon characters, until they regain their usual forms. They flee to another false reality, where a racist  cop challenges them. They escape through a television watched by . Though delighted to meet the Doctor they reveal that their world is the fake one, and encourage him to return and defeat Lux, even though they will then cease to exist. Back in the cinema, the Doctor heals his injured hand using residual  energy. Lux steals the energy to create a solid body. Belinda attempts to burn film reels to cause an explosion, but encouraged by his wife, Pye sacrifices himself. The explosion exposes the cinema to sunlight causing Lux to expand infinitely until he becomes one with the universe. The missing people return.

It was also used as a subversion to the Doctor usually situating themselves as the main authority figure.

What is the telos of education? In a free society, is it desirable or practical to attempt to design a single system of schooling that is ideal for everyone? Can schools hold a neutral position regarding morality and values, or is education a fundamentally ethical enterprise that inevitably adopts a new moral framework when an old one is removed?In this presentation, Patrick Halbrook considered these questions in a historical framework as they have been applied to American education in the twenty-first century.Patrick Halbrook is a teacher, graphic designer, and writer—as well as a passionate advocate for classical Christian education. Over the years he has written for various publications including The Imaginative Conservative, FORMA Journal, The Classical Difference, and Cary Christian School's blog, The Forum. He has a Bachelor of Arts in Liberal and Biblical Studies from Florida College and a Masters of Art in History from North Carolina State University.

What does US history have to tell us about what's happening in Israel/Palestine? Last month, a cadre of four Palestinian theologians—the next generation of scholars and activists and social scientists—joined us in an exploration of US history and how its legacies carry us to the present. These legacies exist as both currents of deep injustice, and as the wellsprings of joy that sprung out of the communities who resisted that injustice and emerged with their humanity intact.In this episode, we hear from ReStory US Director Dr. DeSean Dyson and participant Daniel Bannoura, co-host of the Across The Divide podcast, about the experience. We chart some of the connections between the forces of oppression and dehumanization across both contexts. We discuss how understanding history in context actually makes us better prepared to promote human flourishing and be more "fully human." And we celebrate the solidarity, connection, and humanity that emerges out of this work. --Leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts or SpotifyIf you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos NewsletterRead and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking --Listen to Daniel's podcast, Across the DivideLearn more about and register for the Church at the Crossroads conference

In the past year, Telos has launched a new peacemaking travel experience in Ireland & Northern Ireland, to see what we can learn from the history, movement, and current reality of the conflict in Northern Ireland, and how we can support the work of true justice and peace in the area.While we're still in the early stages of this program,  we traveled with 5 different groups in 2024—and there's already a lot we've learned. In this episode, we hear from Eli Philip, our staff member who runs these trips, on what you might expect from the trip as far as itinerary and locations.Then we hear from two of our board members who have both recently traveled with us to Ireland & Northern Ireland, Bretta Warren-Kim and Ainka Jackson, about their experiences—what they saw and felt, how it changed their perspective of peacemaking, and why they believe it's important to engage this story as Americans. If you are interested, we have open spots on our upcoming Ireland & Northern Ireland trip, September 5th - 13th.

Lai arī Latvijas sabiedrība labprāt kritizē politiķu darbu, pašu pilsoņu kopums nav tik aktīvs iesaistīties. Tikai dažām politiskajā partijām biedru skaits pārsniedz tūkstoti. Kādēļ sabiedrības iesaiste partijās ir tik kūtra, par to diskusija Krustpunktā. Analizē domnīcas "Providus" direktore un vadošā pētniece Iveta Kažoka, konservatīvās domas žurnāla "Telos" redaktors un biedrības "Austošā Saule" valdes loceklis Krišjānis Lācis, Latvijas Universitātes asociētā profesore, sociālantropoloģe Aivita Putniņa un Latvijas Universitātes Filozofijas un socioloģijas institūta vadošais pētnieks Mārtiņš Kaprāns. Pagājušajā trešdienā Krustpunktā bija diskusija par to, kas notiek un notiks ar Rietumu demokrātiju, pie varas nokļūstot mantkārīgākiem, negausīgākiem cilvēkiem. Jautājām, ko darīt, lai saglabātu brīvību, kas mums. Vēsturnieks Valdis Kuzmins sacīja, ka ir jāsāk pašiem ar sevi, kaut vai jākļūst politiski aktīvākiem. Latvijā atšķirībā no kaimiņvalstīm, nemaz nerunājot par citām demokrātijām, nav partijas to klasiskajā izpratnē, viņaprāt, ar desmitiem un simtiem tūkstoši biedru, bet gan tādi politiski elitāri klubiņi, kuros piedalās vien ļoti mazs skaits cilvēku. Tā nu tas ir. Mēs arī šad tad raidījumos stāstām par priekšvēlēšanām kādā no valstīm, kur partiju biedri vēl savas partijas vadību. Tur šīs vēlēšanas notiek valsts mērogā, piedalās simtiem, tūkstošiem, pat miljons partijas biedru. Latvijā nekas tāds nav iedomājams. Kāpēc tā? Ko tas nozīmē mūsu demokrātijai? Vai mums ar to ir jāsamierinās? 

Mahmoud Khalil, a legal resident and green-card holder, was arrested without charge or warrant on private grounds for his activism during last year's encampments in protest of the genocide in Gaza. He is currently detained in Louisiana, alongside a number of other legal residents and foreign national scholars who have also been arrested and detained without charge—including Rumeysa Ozturk, a Turkish student of Tufts University who was arrested by plain clothes officers in plain sight over the weekend. On what legal grounds are his, Rumeysa, and others' arrests—or rather their abductions, as Greg puts it—sitting on? What does it mean for the status of free speech in our country and the protection of our constitutional rights? And what is our job right now as peacemakers to uphold the constitutional and human rights of all in the interest of our democracy and freedoms? We discuss some tangible next steps, essential talking points, and joint strategies for what to do. These are urgent times—yet they are full of opportunities for peacemakers to show up for justice, peace, and human rights. --If you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos NewsletterRead and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking Read Mahmoud Khalil's letter from his detention center in Louisiana and watch his arrest. Watch Rumeysa Ozturk's arrest in Boston.

They discuss the historical context and cultural influences in the 19th century that shaped the phenomenon of Western Christian tourism in Palestine.

Since January 19th, when the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas went into effect, a lot has continued to unfold on the ground. While for the first time in 15 months a path out of the horrific violence seems possible, we know it is far from the end of the road towards a sustainable future of peace and justice for Israelis and Palestinians. Since the ceasefire we've seen violence expand across the West Bank, a new US Administration take power, and laws negatively impacting humanitarian aid take effect. We've also seen Israeli hostages being reunited with their loved ones, and Palestinian families across Gaza returning to their destroyed homes. It's been an emotional few weeks. Join the Telos team as we discuss state and settler violence across the West Bank, the current threat to UNRWA, and the actions and implications of the new Trump Administration and American rhetoric and power shaping the region. --Leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts or SpotifyIf you're enjoying the podcast, become a monthly donor to Telos!Subscribe to the Telos NewsletterRead and share the Principles and Practices of Peacemaking

Jason Miller and Todd Deatherage - Loving our neighbors is at the heart of what Jesus calls us to, but it's hard to love our neighbors if we don't know our neighbors. So for three weeks, we're hearing from partners who can help us understand what others are facing, whether here in the neighborhood, or in the global community. These conversations will give us the chance to grow in empathy and become more educated about what some of the most vulnerable people in our world are experiencing, and what we can do to help. This week, we talked with Todd Deatherage, executive director and co-founder of the Telos Group. Telos's mission is to form communities of American peacemakers across lines of difference, and equip them to help reconcile seemingly intractable conflicts at home and abroad. We've worked with Telos since the earliest days of South Bend City Church as they've helped us to understand the role of American Christianity in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, as they've helped us become more educated in America's own history and current realities of racial injustice, and as we've developed a local pilgrimage to deepen our awareness and relationships in South Bend.  What's Happening RSVP to one of our upcoming New to SBCC Tables.

Cities across America have boulevards named after him. The nation celebrates his life and legacy every year in January. Washington, D.C. boasts a massive monument of his likeness. Even so, most Americans have no idea that Martin Luther King Jr. was widely despised during this life and decades after his death. On this MLK Jr. Day, it's important to go "beyond the quotable King," as historian and author Jemar Tisby, PhD compels us.In this conversation, Jemar unpacks that history and his newest book, "The Spirit of Justice: True Stories of Faith, Race, and Resistance." In it, we also talk about the "great man myth" and the centrality of Coretta Scott King, not only to Martin's activism, but also to the broader civil rights movement.

In this episode, my guest is Ari Wallach, adjunct associate professor at Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs and host of a new TV series titled A Brief History of the Future. We discuss the importance of learning to project our understanding of ourselves and our goals into the future, both for our own sake and for future generations. We also explore how this fosters a sense of unity and community within our species. We examine how technology and modern society influence our perception of time and our ability to make decisions in a fast-paced, reward-driven environment that leads to our best possible future. Additionally, we discuss how the dismantling of traditional institutions has altered people's sense of purpose. We outline protocols to cultivate long-term thinking, connect with core values, and define a deep sense of purpose. This episode provides listeners with actionable tools to merge short- and long-term thinking in ways that create a positive, lasting impact on ourselves, society, and the planet.
