07 Jan 2025 | E130 - Gregg Braden: Artificial vs Ancient Intelligence: The Rise of Tech Without Losing Our Power | 01:41:56 | |
Scientist Gregg Braden is back on Know Thyself today for a deeper dive into the inherent beauty of humanity and the technology that threatens it. Pulling on the threads of our last conversations, Gregg opens up about the current state of the world: from transhumanism to artificial intelligence, giving a warning message about these innovations. He provides a reframe on what we’ve been told about human potential: revealing that we are far greater than we know and these technologies threaten that very greatness. Our discussion encompasses a range of critical topics, including the ongoing struggle between good and evil on Earth, the pivotal Year 2030, and the Future of Humanity. Furthermore, Gregg draws intriguing parallels to popular culture, exploring how films like "The Matrix" serve as allegories for deeper truths about our reality, prompting us to question the nature of existence itself.

Emerging from what he calls ‘a field of limitless light’ that lasted 3 days and 3 nights, Richard was entrusted with a sacred teaching – the wisdom of the Gene Keys. A born explorer, Richard has studied with great teachers in the East, traveled through the Himalayas, the Pacific, the Americas and the Arctic. Earning a Master’s Degree in metaphysics and literature from Edinburgh University, he went on to work in the film industry in Australia, trained as a teacher of Chi Kung in Thailand and sailed across the Atlantic Ocean on a small yacht. During this time he lived in Manhattan, Oregon and Hawaii before finally returning to the UK in 1998, where he met Marian his wife. Over the following years they had three children and moved to Devon in southern England. Throughout his adventures Richard has explored his love of writing and in 2006 he won the FISH international poetry award in Ireland. All Richard’s travels and studies coalesced into a synthesis in 2002 when he began to write and conceive the Gene Keys. It took seven years to write the book and understand its teachings and applications. Today Richard continues to expand the wisdom that he was gifted, remaining always a student of the Gene Keys while teaching all around the world. In 2019, Richard was named on the Watkins list of The 100 Most Spiritually Influential Living People.

09 Jul 2024 | E104 - Annaka Harris: Reality Is Stranger Than You Think, Consciousness, Perception, Free Will, AI & Love | 02:24:13 | |
Annaka Harris dives deep into some of the most profound and perplexing questions about the nature of consciousness, perception, free will, AI, and the underlying meaning of love and existence. Annaka begins by defining consciousness and exploring the "hard problem". She discusses neuroscientific insights into how the brain processes conscious experiences, and how our intuitions about the nature of the self and decision-making can often mislead us. The conversation then ventures into the realms of plant consciousness, the criteria for discerning whether something is truly conscious and capable of suffering, and the idea that consciousness may be a fundamental feature of the universe. She shares her personal experience with using meditation to transcend the illusory nature of the self.

08 Oct 2024 | E117 - Marc Gafni: Decoding The Kabbalah Tree Of Life: Realize Your Unique Self & Unleash Eros | 03:00:38 | |
This week we explore the depths of Kabbalah, unique self, and Eros with renowned philosopher Marc Gafni. He begins by defining the foundational concepts of Kabbalah, setting the stage for an exploration of the interplay between masculine and feminine energies that shape our reality. He introduces the profound symbol of the Tree of Life and its relevance to personal mastery. As he describes each piece of the 11 stories in the Tree of Life, the discussion unfolds to encompass the realms of imagination, understanding, and the balance between love and boundaries, highlighting the beauty of contradictions and the coexistence of joy amidst life's challenges. He then describes the concept of unique self, an understanding of self that transcends the misconceptions of both Western and Eastern traditions. As the episode progresses, we delve into how Eros can serve as a portal to deepening intimacy, and ultimately heal our disconnected world.

10 Sep 2024 | E113 - Kute Blackson: The Power of Surrender: Allowing a Greater Intelligence to Guide Your Life | 02:03:30 | |
Inspirational speaker and author Kute Blackson lays the blueprint for learning how to surrender to life and in turn manifest your true purpose. He shares the power of surrender and how our childhood conditioning causes us to be divorced from our intuition and trust with life. He explains the different stages of surrender: from questioning, to accepting, to grieving; and provides actionable steps for going through this process yourself. Through the lens of his own personal experience, he shares the times that surrendering the vision he had for his career opened him up to something far greater than he could have ever imagined. With this in mind, he provides a clear lens on how to trust life's intelligence, face the facts when things aren't working out, and maintain a state of faith within the world's great tragedies.

23 Jul 2024 | E106 - Donald Hoffman: The Emerging Science, “We Are ONE Consciousness” - Life, Death & The Simulation | 02:20:17 | |
Donald Hoffman is back on Know Thyself today to explore the constraints of time and space, and how they shape our understanding of the world around us. He discusses the "headset analogy" - the idea that our senses act as a kind of cognitive filter, preventing us from directly perceiving the true nature of reality. Donald delves into the paradoxes found in various mathematical theorems, and his newest research on "conscious agents" and how it relates to the Gaia hypothesis. The significance of mystical experiences and their potential to reveal truths about the nature of reality is also covered. Hoffman also opens up about his thoughts on reincarnation, the relationship between science and spirituality, and the possibility of artificial intelligence becoming truly conscious.

A film of the same title was released in 2000, directed by Robert Redford and starring Matt Damon, Will Smith and Charlize Theron.His father was in the Navy, and he was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad, in 1943. Since graduating from Duke University in 1965, he has been a U.S. Marine, an advertising copywriter, schoolteacher, tractor-trailer driver, bartender, oilfield roustabout, attendant in a mental hospital and screenwriter. His struggles to earn a living as a writer (it took seventeen years to get the first paycheck) are detailed in The War of Art, Turning Pro, The Authentic Swing, Nobody Wants to Read Your Sh*t, and The Knowledge.There's a recurring character in his books, named Telamon, a mercenary of ancient days. Telamon doesn't say much. He rarely gets hurt or wounded. And he never seems to age. His view of the profession of arms is a lot like Pressfield's conception of art and the artist:"It is one thing to study war, and another to live the warrior's life."

Mike Majlak is an author, content creator, and co-host on the popular podcast, “Impaulsive,” with Logan Paul.
Mike Majlak was a seventeen-year-old from a loving, middle-class family in Milford, Connecticut, when he got caught up in the opioid epidemic that swept the nation. For close to a decade thereafter, his life was a wasteland of darkness and despair. While his peers were graduating from college, buying homes, getting married, having kids, and leading normal lives, Mike was snorting OxyContin, climbing out of cars at gunpoint, and burying his childhood friends. Unable to escape the noose of addiction, he eventually lost the trust and support of everyone who had ever loved him. Alone, with nothing but drugs to keep him company, darkness closed in, and the light inside him--the last flicker of hope--began to dim. His dreams, potential, and future were all being devoured by a relentless addiction too powerful to fight. Despair filled him as he realized he wasn't going to survive.
Somehow, he did... He not only survived, he thrived.
Now he's a social media personality with millions of followers, and an entrepreneur, marketer, podcaster, YouTuber, and author who hopes to use his voice to shine a light for those whose own lights have grown dim.

Today she shares what meditation actually is and why we can't afford to NOT meditate. She also dives deep on what she calls "pleasure prayer", of harnessing the creative potential of your orgasm to manifest.
