Podcasts about ultimate nature

What does it mean to perceive reality? How do art, science, and philosophy converge in shaping our understanding of the world? In this episode of Departures with Robert Amsterdam, we sit down with William Egginton, acclaimed author and professor, to dive into his latest book, "The Rigor of Angels: Borges, Heisenberg, Kant, and the Ultimate Nature of Reality." Egginton weaves a captivating narrative that bridges the literary genius of Jorge Luis Borges, the groundbreaking physics of Werner Heisenberg, the poetry of Robert Frost, and the profound philosophy of Immanuel Kant. Egginton explores how these thinkers confronted the boundaries of human knowledge, the mysteries of perception, and the paradoxes of existence, fate, and choice. In this conversation with Robert Amsterdam, Egginton shares his insights into the unexpected connections and overlapping themes with these towering figures, the questions they asked, and how their ideas resonate with our quest to make sense of an increasingly complex universe. The remarkable harmony between nature, science, art, philosophy and literature during these critical years resonated deeply with us, and we hope you enjoy this conversation about this special book.

While avant-garde filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky might be most famous for the wildly ambitious version of Dune that never got made - in spite of having actors and artists like Orson Welles, Salvador Dalí, Mick Jagger, Pink Floyd, H.R. Giger, and Mœbius attached to the project - he was also the creative force behind several dynamic and influential films. In this episode, William Egginton (The Rigor of Angels: Borges, Kant, Heisenberg, and the Ultimate Nature of Reality) returns to discuss his new book, Alejandro Jodorowsky: Filmmaker and Philosopher. PLUS David Sterling Brown (Shakespeare's White Others) stops by to discuss his choice for the last book he will ever read.

The Times's staff book critics — Dwight Garner, Jennifer Szalai and Alexandra Jacobs — do a lot of reading over the course of any given year, but not everything they read stays with them equally. On this week's podcast, Gilbert Cruz chats with the critics about the books that did: the novels and story collections and works of nonfiction that made an impression in 2023 and defined their year in reading, including one that Garner says caught him by surprise.“Eleanor Catton's ‘Birnam Wood' is in some ways my novel of the year,” Garner says. “And it's not really my kind of book. This is going to sound stupid or snobby, but I'm not the biggest plot reader. I'm just not. I like sort of thorny, funny, earthy fiction, and if there's no plot I'm fine with that. But this has a plot like a dream. It just takes right off. And she's such a funny, generous writer that I was just happy from the first time I picked it up.”Here are the books discussed on this week's episode:“Be Mine,” by Richard Ford“Onlookers,” by Ann Beattie“I Am Homeless if This Ia Not My Home,” by Lorrie Moore“People Collide,” by Isle McElroy“Birnam Wood,” by Eleanor Catton“Biography of X,” by Catherine Lacey“Madonna: A Rebel Life,” by Mary Gabriel“The Sullivanians: Sex, Psychotherapy, and the Wild Life of an American Commune,” by Alexander Stille“The Best Minds: A Story of Friendship, Madness, and the Tragedy of Good Intentions,” by Jonathan Rosen“Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs: A Journey Through the Deep State,” by Kerry Howley“The Country of the Blind: A Memoir at the End of Sight,” by Andrew Leland“Fatherland: A Memoir of War, Conscience, and Family Secrets,” by Burkhard Bilger“King: A Life,” Jonathan Eig“Larry McMurtry: A Life,” Tracy Daugherty“Biography of a Phantom: A Robert Johnson Blues Odyssey,” by Robert “Mack” McCormick“Roald Dahl, Teller of the Unexpected: A Biography,” by Matthew Dennison“The Rigor of Angels: Borges, Heisenberg, Kant, and the Ultimate Nature of Reality,” by William Egginton“Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World,” by Naomi Klein“The Notebooks and Diaries of Edmund Wilson”“Zero at the Bone: Fifty Entries Against Despair,” by Christian Wiman“Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals,” by Oliver BurkemanWe would love to hear your thoughts about this episode, and about the Book Review's podcast in general.

The Rigor of Angels: Borges, Heisenberg, Kant, and the Ultimate Nature of Reality by William Egginton https://amzn.to/3tKTVPy Argentine poet Jorge Luis Borges was madly in love when his life was shattered by painful heartbreak. But the breakdown that followed illuminated an incontrovertible truth—that love is necessarily imbued with loss, that the one doesn't exist without the other. German physicist Werner Heisenberg was fighting with the scientific establishment on the meaning of the quantum realm's absurdity when he had his own epiphany—that there is no such thing as a complete, perfect description of reality. Prussian philosopher Immanuel Kant pushed the assumptions of human reason to their mind-bending conclusions, but emerged with an idea that crowned a towering philosophical system—that the human mind has fundamental limits, and those limits undergird both our greatest achievements as well as our missteps. Through fiction, science, and philosophy, the work of these three thinkers coalesced around the powerful, haunting fact that there is an irreconcilable difference between reality “out there” and reality as we experience it. Out of this profound truth comes a multitude of galvanizing ideas: the notion of selfhood, free will, and purpose in human life; the roots of morality, aesthetics, and reason; and the origins and nature of the cosmos itself. As each of these thinkers shows, every one of us has a fundamentally incomplete picture of the world. But this is to be expected. Only as mortal, finite beings are we able to experience the world in all its richness and breathtaking majesty. We are stranded in a gulf of vast extremes, between the astronomical and the quantum, an abyss of freedom and absolute determinism, and it is in that center where we must make our home. A soaring and lucid reflection on the lives and work of Borges, Heisenberg, and Kant, The Rigor of Angels movingly demonstrates that the mysteries of our place in the world may always loom over us—not as a threat, but as a reminder of our humble humanity.

There is only one emptiness but varying degrees of familiarity with this emptiness. When one first meditates, one gets to know the inner space and notices the gaps of space between thoughts. Meditation expands the space in which the mind functions, allowing more room for higher functions and intelligence. There is restfulness and peace in the space for the mind. This restful place is actually the Awakened state of Natural Beingness, a place one becomes more familiar with over time. This video takes you on a journey of exploring this space and helping you to get to know better your own Natural Beingness.

This podcast is from a teaching that Lama Zopa Rinpoche gave about Buddhist refuge for the graduation ceremony of the first cohort of Human Spirit, an Israel-based Buddhist-psychoanalytic training program over Zoom. Here's a summary of Rinpoche's teaching, which was offered on June 8, 2022, from Kopan Monastery in Nepal. All happiness and suffering come from the mind, not from the outside, Rinpoche reminds us. Since we want happiness and don't want suffering, the vast subject of the mind should be of utmost importance for us to investigate. To become healthy—both physically and mentally—we practice meditation, study the Dharma, and learn about the mind in order to clean it up. A negative and unhealthy mind brings sickness and suffering in so many forms. By continuing with effort to clean up the mind, going deeper and deeper through meditation and analysis, you can completely cease delusions and karma and remove the cause of suffering. By realizing the ultimate nature of the mind—the ultimate nature of I—then we can develop wisdom and realize emptiness. This is ultimate Dharma. The real refuge is ultimate Dharma. This is like taking medicine; it ceases the cause of suffering, delusions, and karma. Since Buddha revealed the path, in the analogy of medicine, Buddha is the doctor. You take refuge in the Buddha when you take refuge in the Dharma, the teachings of the Buddha. And the Sangha are those who help you actualize the absolute Dharma and understand conventional Dharma through the scriptures. So this is why we take refuge in the Sangha. Anger makes us very frightening and ugly, and causes us to want to harm others. So much negative karma of the body, speech, and mind are created when we view others as the enemy. This is why the benefits of practicing patience are unbelievable. By completing the perfection of patience, it is impossible for anger to arise. All the gross and subtle obscurations are ceased, purified. Then the mind becomes an enlightened mind. When the mind becomes enlightened, we can liberate the numberless sentient beings from suffering. This is the ultimate benefit to oneself and others, unlike anger which only harms self and others. When you practice patience, there is no enemy. In this way, the person who gives you an opportunity to practice patience is the most precious one in your life!  We invite you to go deeper into the topics presented here, plus many others, by watching Rinpoche's video and reading the full transcript of Rinpoche's teaching.

On January 1, 2015, physicist Max Tegmark gave up something most of us love to do: complain about things without ever trying to fix them. That "put up or shut up" New Year's resolution led to the first Puerto Rico conference and Open Letter on Artificial Intelligence - milestones for researchers taking the safe development of highly-capable AI systems seriously. Links to learn more, summary and full transcript. Max's primary work has been cosmology research at MIT, but his energetic and freewheeling nature has led him into so many other projects that you would be forgiven for forgetting it. In the 2010s he wrote two best-selling books, Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality, and Life 3.0: Being Human in the Age of Artificial Intelligence, and in 2014 founded a non-profit, the Future of Life Institute, which works to reduce all sorts of threats to humanity's future including nuclear war, synthetic biology, and AI. Max has complained about many other things over the years, from killer robots to the impact of social media algorithms on the news we consume. True to his 'put up or shut up' resolution, he and his team went on to produce a video on so-called 'Slaughterbots' which attracted millions of views, and develop a website called 'Improve The News' to help readers separate facts from spin. But given the stunning recent advances in capabilities - from OpenAI's DALL-E to DeepMind's Gato - AI itself remains top of his mind. You can now give an AI system like GPT-3 the text: "I'm going to go to this mountain with the faces on it. What is the capital of the state to the east of the state that that's in?" And it gives the correct answer (Saint Paul, Minnesota) - something most AI researchers would have said was impossible without fundamental breakthroughs just seven years ago. So back at MIT, he now leads a research group dedicated to what he calls "intelligible intelligence." At the moment, AI systems are basically giant black boxes that magically do wildly impressive things. But for us to trust these systems, we need to understand them. He says that training a black box that does something smart needs to just be stage one in a bigger process. Stage two is: "How do we get the knowledge out and put it in a safer system?" Today's conversation starts off giving a broad overview of the key questions about artificial intelligence: What's the potential? What are the threats? How might this story play out? What should we be doing to prepare? Rob and Max then move on to recent advances in capabilities and alignment, the mood we should have, and possible ways we might misunderstand the problem. They then spend roughly the last third talking about Max's current big passion: improving the news we consume - where Rob has a few reservations. They also cover: * Whether we could understand what superintelligent systems were doing * The value of encouraging people to think about the positive future they want * How to give machines goals * Whether 'Big Tech' is followin

On this episode, Laura Chandler interviews Geshe Dangsong Namgyal, the founder of Kungsong Gar Meditation Center in Santa Cruz, and author of the book, Holy Women of Great Perfection: Thirty Signs and Meanings of Ultimate Nature in the Ancient Tibetan Tradition. And she is joined by a special guest co-host, Isa Gucciardi, Ph.D., author of The New Return to the Great Mother and Founding Director of the Foundation of the Sacred Stream. In this conversation, we talk with Geshe Namgyal about his book, teachings, and the practice of Pure Dzogen. He explains why he chose to highlight the wisdom and teaching of female deities in his book, particularly in light of the changing, but still strongly patriarchal tradition of Tibetan Buddhism. He also talks about the pan-Buddhist practice of Rime, a movement in Tibetan Buddhism that is non-sectarian, as well as the practice of Pure Dzogchen. He offers that no matter what one's background—country, gender, age, race, beliefs or history of painful experiences and emotions, the study and practice of the Pure Dzogchen teachings can help people discover true peace, strength, and fearlessness in life; and confidence in an eventual, positive death and rebirth experience.

Those among us who loathed high school calculus might feel some trepidation at the premise in this week's episode of Rationally Speaking. MIT Physicist Max Tegmark joins us to talk about his book "Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality" in which explains the controversial argument that everything around us is made of math.

In this talk, Keith Ward argues that most sophisticated religions are correct in thinking that there exists a spiritual dimension of reality based on wisdom, compassion and bliss as well as addressing how we can understand the phenomena of religion in the light of new scientific and global understanding. Speaker: Revd Professor Keith Ward FBA, Professor of Philosophy of Religion, Roehampton University Transcript: https://www.thebritishacademy.ac.uk/podcasts/10-minute-talks-religion-theology-and-the-ultimate-nature-of-reality/

LIFEAID CBD 303 Aaron Hinde Positive Head Podcast #1074: Josh Trent Brandon Beachum Positive Head podcast Mystic Manor Optimystic What would your answer be if someone turned to you and asked you what your passion is? (7:00) The Celestine Prophecy: An Adventure by James Redfield Buckminster Fuller 096 Daniel Schmachtenberger Alan Watts Why he believes that the future is all about us coming together in a  connected wellness tribe. How he became interested in podcasting and exploring how to achieve greater wellbeing. Why many people, but not all, feel a part of their soul die if they work in a cubicle for corporate America and how that was true for both Brandon and Josh. (12:00)   16:50 Exploring Our True Purpose & Taking Risks The importance of realizing that we are actually quite safe and we can take some risks in life to fulfill our purpose. How to let go of being frightened of "what if" something will happen and truly start living. 032 Gay and Katie Hendricks  Why we sometimes have to experience the most difficult moments that life can offer us in order to change, grow, and life live well. Business struggles he and his brother have experienced as entrepreneurs and karmic lessons he has learned from it. Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife by Dr. Eben Alexander III Why a lot of the villains in our stories are actually our best friends as they give us all these lessons and experiences we need to improve as humans. (25:20) The fact that we will never truly transcend our egos. Why there's just no such thing as "good vibes only"; just peaks and valleys that we will experience in life. (29:40) How to observe, accept, and let go of our thoughts and emotions rather than letting them tie us down. Whatever Arises, Love That: A Love Revolution That Begins with You by Matt Kahn How we can embrace and master whatever emotions bubble up to the surface.   31:00 Better Understanding Our Relationship With Money Understanding that we can't fix everything with money but we can use it as a tool to help others and affect things positively. The trend he notices about very wealthy people and why they try to stack away more and more wealth to preserve it all rather than to grow it. Why the only thing that truly matters is the good that we do in the world and not how much money we make. What abundance and worth truly mean to the universe. Why you know something is true and resonates with you when you feel your body start to relax rather than having to think it over and over in your head. (34:30) Michael Beckwith The importance of being truly aligned with your purpose for greater abundance. Why all of our experiences are leading us to a greater purpose and self-discovery that we might not even know about yet. Josh's call to try plant medicine for the first time in 2015 and how that allowed him to physically and emotionally let go.   42:00 Why Loving Yourself Is The Secret To Weight Loss Every moment you have is a fresh chance to turn your life around. The biggest lie from the weight loss industry that you will finally be loved and supported when you lose weight. Why you have to embody and love the way you feel from moving, eating well, and caring for yourself to create this energy that allows you to let go of the weight. Josh's own weight loss journey and how he started off on the wrong foot by counting calories and macronutrients until he finally loved himself and did the inner work. How to cultivate the self-love you deserve in the moment whenever you need it the most. The fact that we will be challenged to keep up with our raised vibrations and it's okay if we don't have a positive attitude every day (46:15)   48:00 Authenticity & Vulnerability Are Our Super Powers Why Brandon launched the Positive Head Podcast to help manage his own vibration and process his negative emotions. How Brandon works through negative feelings to better understand himself and let those emotions go. The power of loving whatever thoughts or emotions arise during your inner work. How Josh uncovered the true mission of Wellness Force Media and his purpose for it. Josh's own process to make peace with himself and who he was in the past. Why 2020 is literally your year for clearer vision. One of the uncomfortable edges Brandon is still leaning into that will give him greater understanding and love for others and himself. Why one of the greatest ways to grow is to spend time with your family and get to know where you come from. False beliefs about relationships we've been programmed to trust including that they have to last forever, 1:02:40 Our Life Played Out On Many Channels Why he believes that death is actually a birth to a new life for our consciousness. Life is NOT a Journey - Alan Watts Interstellar trailer Why he believes that our lives play out at the corners of free will and destiny. (1:03:40) Why no one can predict your future; there are probabilities but we have free will. (1:07:00) His idea that our lives are playing out here now but also on many different channels in other dimensions. Our roles as masters and students in our own reality. (1:08:30) Why our life lessons and various experiences, good or bad, are teaching us every day to become the next best version of ourselves. (1:10:30) 1:12:00 Narcissism & Spiritual Bypassing Explanation of the Jesus Complex when people tap into this truth that they are the one due to spiritual bypassing and they're forgetting that so is everyone else. How narcissism blocks us from observing and loving the imperfections because we're so focused on perfectionism. Social media's constant feed to the narcissism collective and the awareness we get to have of its darkness. The deep wounds and incredible experiences that are being created at the same time and our quest for why they happen. (1:11:30) 1:19:40 Life Is Happening For You, Not To You Why everything that happens to us is happening for love and that everything is going to be okay. How society has been built up to glorify war and all of this loss that people are willing to or have to suffer. The loss we all go through and that feeling of sadness that allows us to connect with other people. (1:17:00) Inside Out trailer Why the sense of community is now more powerful than ever with abject poverty, war, and climate change. What incredible change can happen when we all commit to mindfulness and supporting each other. Why the more you know, the more you realize you don't actually know. (1:19:00) Dr. Erica Middlemiss Dr. Joe Dispenza The M21 Wellness Guide Positive Head Podcast #271: Cory Allen Power Quotes From The Show Observing Thoughts & Emotions In A Healthy Manner "Understand that there will be peaks and valleys throughout your lifetime; you just can't have one without the other. When you know that you're in a valley, then you can navigate it in a way that's the most effective as opposed to getting lost in the darkness. Give your thoughts and emotions their space, observe them, allow them to pass by, and do whatever you can to just gently find your way out of it but never by forcing, masking, or holding them down." - Brandon Beachum The Positive Side Of Relationships Ending "All relationships have the purpose of growth and the idea that one has to last forever in order to be successful is a big misconception that permeates our collective consciousness. You are going to come together with different energies for all of eternity and thank goodness there is some shelf-life to all of them. Whether you spend a whole lifetime together or 5 weeks or 5 days, that separation gives us the opportunity to miss the relationship and have gratitude for it. You never truly lose anyone or anything. Honor that relationship, know that you are infinitely abundant and the universe will send whatever else you need." - Brandon Beachum Experiencing Life Fully Through Love, Wonder, And Pain "God is using all of these 'painful experiences' for love in the end. Wholeheartedly, we will or already have experienced every type of love, wonder, or pain in our lifetimes. That's the game, I believe, that our soul signed up for; it signed up to go down the deep rabbit hole of contrast so that it could fully appreciate who and what we are in this life. Understanding that helps us realize that it's all going to be okay in the end. We are not victims because everything that we experience is not happening to us but for us. Life is not happening to you, it is always, always, and always happening for you."- Brandon Beachum Links From Today's Show LIFEAID CBD 303 Aaron Hinde The Celestine Prophecy: An Adventure by James Redfield Buckminster Fuller 096 Daniel Schmachtenberger Alan Watts 032 Gay and Katie Hendricks  Proof of Heaven: A Neurosurgeon's Journey into the Afterlife by Dr. Eben Alexander III Whatever Arises, Love That: A Love Revolution That Begins with You by Matt Kahn Michael Beckwith Life is NOT a Journey - Alan Watts Interstellar trailer Inside Out trailer Dr. Erica Middlemiss Dr. Joe Dispenza The M21 Wellness Guide Positive Head Podcast #271: Cory Allen Mystic Manor Optimystic Instagram Positive Head podcast Facebook Twitter Instagram YouTube Brandon Beachum Facebook Twitter Instagram LinkedIn About Brandon Beachum Brandon Beachum is a podcaster, entrepreneur, writer, musician, philosopher, and truth-seeker. He originally made his way to California from the east coast when his former band received a development deal with Elektra Records back in 2001. Brandon has been a serial entrepreneur since childhood and in 2010, while living on a friend’s couch, he founded what is now his first recognizably successful company, ResortShare. In August of 2015, ResortShare was named the 569th fastest-growing private company in America in the annual Inc. 5000 Fastest Growing Companies list. In October 2015 ResortShare received an offer to be bought out for $30 million dollars by a publicly-traded company, but within 12 hours of receiving the offer, they lost 90% of their revenue stream due to an exclusive arrangement a major partner (Booking.com) signed with a much larger competitor. Brandon learned some great life lessons through this hardship and throughout his experience at ResortShare and is now focusing on various other projects. (Positive Head, HelloVacay.com, Sesh.io) The Ultimate Nature Of Reality Since discussing and continually exploring what he refers to as “The Ultimate Nature of Reality” is something he feels called very strongly to do, he decided that launching a podcast would be the best avenue to pursue his calling and to help bring that increasingly popular topic of conversation to a broader audience. So in May 2015, he launched PositiveHead.com and The Positive Head Podcast. The show’s aim is to help listeners consistently maintain elevated vibration. In an effort to help the listeners achieve that aim, every Wednesday he interviews a different author, director, artist, blogger, scientist, entrepreneur or other notable personality who is out there making a positive impact on the world. He has been extremely fortunate to have the privilege to interview some amazing and highly-respected guests in the very first year of his show (i.e. Dr. Eben Alexander, Marian Goodell, Dr. Bruce Lipton, Nassim Haramein). Brandon's Dedication To Better Wellness On the other weekdays, Brandon and his co-host Dalien give interpretations of their favorite quotes, share a bit of mind-expanding or mysterious news, take questions from the audience, and dig into any other mind-expansive topics that they feel will help keep the listeners’ souls fed on a regular basis. The Positive Head Podcast has continued to experience exponential growth and was featured in the “New & Noteworthy” section on iTunes within weeks of being launched, and is currently listed in the “What’s Hot” section on iTunes in multiple categories. Brandon is also currently in the process of writing his first two books, The Fountain of You: How the marriage of science and spirituality is birthing us into the age of timelessness and The Talk: A wakeup call for those ready to re-member.

In today's show, Dr. Kelly and Brandon Beachum discuss the concept of the hero's journey and the empowering concept and ever-growing evidence that we are all extensions of the source energy that created all things. We discuss how we can better utilize this ultimate truth to manifest more of what we wish to see in our reality. We will be talking about how to be of service, about Brandon's incredible spiritual journey, and will also touch on other topics relevant to both of us including open relationships and polyamory.

Just as some of us are getting used to the idea of the multiverse, along comes Max Tegmark telling us that we're not thinking big enough. According to Max, there are actually multiple multiverses containing endless copies of and variations on the "pocket universe" we've quaintly come to think of as everything. And while it may sound like he's tripping, Max assures us that he's only high on mathematics and logic, following where they lead. In our tour of the multi-multiverse, he and I discussed the implications of infinite spacetime, eternal inflation, the quantum mechanical wave function, the many worlds interpretation and the idea that reality is at bottom mathematical.

Those among us who loathed high school calculus might feel some trepidation at the premise in this week's episode of Rationally Speaking. MIT Physicist Max Tegmark joins us to talk about his book "Our Mathematical Universe: My Quest for the Ultimate Nature of Reality" in which explains the controversial argument that everything around us is made of math. Max, Massimo and Julia explore the arguments for such a theory, how it could be tested, and what it even means.
