Herman Maynard teleseminar on After the Collapse – Bull!
If you’re predisposed to believe that our current free-market, capitalist economic system is teetering on the brink then you’ll love this presentation. If you’ve not quite lost control of your senses then you won’t.
Arthur Hastings teleseminar on the Psychomanteum --A scientist engaging with another scientist
I enjoyed this presentation as much for what it didn’t have as for what it did. After Dr. Hastings carefully describes his work Marilyn pushes (appropriately, but insistently) for the big payoff – survival of consciousness after death. And, Hastings won’t go there. He’s polite, but circumspect; willing to go no further than the data will allow. He’s a scientist engaging with another scientist. This is IONS at it’s best!
David Hawkins -- Enlightened?
Here we have the enlightened man… I know because he told me so.
Stripped away are even the faintest of doubts most of us suffer. They don’t exist for Dr. Hawkins. Nor does the need for any data or serious scientific investigation. I guess after you’ve trumped Darwin and Einstein (he implies as much) and corrected Buddha (this he directly claims) there’s no need to doubt much.
Brian Swimme: Epic of the Universe… fuzzy, cultish, thinking
There are those who recycle, like Brain, because they like the “idea� the “feeling� the “spirit� of the act without regard for the effectiveness (i.e. recycling anything other than aluminum, and maybe cardboard, is a net drain on our ecology).
Charles Tart asks, "Can There Be Life Before Death?" -- Excellent!
Great presentation, but I’m not sure the title is very descriptive; it’s really an introduction to mediation.
And it's the most practical presentation on meditation I’ve ever heard. Dr. Tart manages to stripe away Eastern religious dogma without loosing the soul and spirit of meditation practice.
