Timothy Owen Desmond, Ph.D returns to mind meld!

Video version here 👈

In this brain-melting transmission, we riff on the surprising connections between ancient wisdom (both eastern and western) and modern physics. We also muse about Earnest Becker's Denial of Death, and the philosophy of Hegel. We speculate about the physics of near-death experiences, particularly through the lens of the one Carl Jung experienced in 1944. We muse about the groundbreaking work of idealist cognitive scientist, Donald Hoffman, and more! 

Timothy Owen Desmond is the author of Psyche and Singularity: Jungian Psychology and Holographic String Theory.
