26 March 2022:  Bob Cohen and Akhandadhi das, Discovering the Bhaktivedanta Institute for Higher Studies

This session discussed the work of the Bhaktivedanta Institute for Higher Studies (BIHS) based in Gainesville, Florida, which has undertaken collaborative projects worldwide as part of the Bhaktivedanta Institute formed in 1976. One focus of the BIHS is to explore the nature of consciousness and its interaction with both the body/brain complex and external reality, drawing on the empiric processes of yoga and meditation and the traditions of Vedic philosophy and metaphysics.

The talk will include a presentation on the metaphysical framework offered by Vedic traditions, including the three-fold categorization of the distinctive functions and properties of the physical world (including our bodies). experienced mental states, and consciousness as the experiencer. This framework has close parallels with the M5 model devised by PEAR yet also contains distinct ideas that help to ground many ‘anomalous’ phenomena. The talk will conclude with a discussion of current research projects that the institute has initiated and sponsored, ones actively applying the principles of this framework in the fields of neuroscience, AI, biology, physics and even cosmology.

Bob Cohen was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1949, completed his B.S. in Chemistry at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in 1971, and received his M.S. in Geology from Rutgers University in 1975. After a twenty-year career serving as a geologist and vice-president of a large regional environmental company, he currently works as an environmental consultant to state governments. He has been a member of the Bhaktivedanta Institute since the inception in 1976, giving a presentation at their First International Conference on Life Comes from Life in 1977, and working on a multitude of projects with R.L. Thompson from 1995 through 2008. He now serves as the Executive Director of the Bhaktivedanta Institute for Higher Studies.

Akhandadhi das was born in Belfast, Ireland and studied architecture at Bristol University. In 1975 he entered an ashram in the UK to study Vedanta philosophy and took monastic vows. He served as Principal of the Bhaktivedanta Manor theological college from 1982-1995. He has been a regular contributor on BBC since 1989 and sat on its Central Religious Advisory Board for six years. From 1996, he was director of Buckland Hall in Wales, an open venue for spiritual, philosophical and personal development and training. Currently, he is a director the Science and Philosophy Initiative in the UK, a multi-disciplinary association exploring the issues of consciousness & physical systems principally in neuroscience, biology & physics; and also of the Bhaktivedanta Institute for Higher Studies (BIHS). His particular area of interest is the metaphysics of consciousness.

5 March 2022:  Dr. Dean Radin, Is Consciousness Causal?

Within the body, it certainly seems as though consciousness is causal. I want to wave my hand, and it waves. But what about the more interesting question of whether consciousness acts beyond the body? Laboratory tests with random number generators, as well as many other kinds of physical targets, have effectively demonstrated a correlation between aspects of consciousness and the behavior of distant physical systems. But correlation does not entail causation, and other, non-causal interpretations of these experiments have been proposed. To help analytically explore this question, I have been re-analyzing the data of the Global Consciousness Project to see if that database supports Einstein’s famous complaint about the indeterminism of quantum theory, namely his quip that “God does not play dice with the universe.” Initial results of this analysis suggest that Einstein may have been correct after all.

Dean Radin is Chief Scientist at the Institute of Noetic Sciences (IONS) and Associated Distinguished Professor at the California Institute of Integral Studies. He earned an MS (electrical engineering) and a PhD (psychology) from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign. Before joining the IONS research staff in 2001, Radin worked at AT&T Bell Labs, Princeton University, University of Edinburgh, and SRI International. He has given over 650 talks and interviews worldwide, and he is author or coauthor of some 300 scientific and popular articles, four dozen book chapters and forewords, two technical books, and four popular books translated into 15 foreign languages: The Conscious Universe (1997, HarperCollins), Entangled Minds (2006, Simon & Schuster), Supernormal (2013, RandomHouse), and Real Magic (2018, PenguinRandomHouse).

Due to internet connectivity issues, the recording for this session was broken into two videos: Part 1 and Part 2.

22 January 2022:  Dr. Jeffrey Dunne, Language: The Ultimate Tool for Cleaving Humanity

Jeff Dunne examines the limitations of language as a means of bringing disparate people together: what are the fundamental drivers that cause us to misunderstand one another, especially in situations where we are easily convinced that our understanding is solid?  And perhaps more importantly, how can those limitations be overcome?

Abstract: There is perhaps no better reflection of the complexity and sophistication of humans than the languages they use to communicate. Ironically, however, the same tool that enables us to express and share complex ideas and feelings also carries the potential to create unparalleled rifts and confusion. As humans, we quickly forget that words are metaphors whose interpretations depend strongly on the life experiences of the listener, experiences that are almost never the same as those of the communicator. It is no wonder that miscommunication and misunderstanding have caused levels of pain, anger, and destruction that are at least as great as from instigators like greed and ideology.

18 September 2021:  Dr. Peter Merry, ECOintention-Working with the Energy and Information Fields of Large Scale Systems

For over 25 years a group in the Netherlands and Germany have developed a practice for working with the energetic information fields of large areas of land and organisations. The early years included work in a Russian national park as well as large estates in Eastern Europe and the UK and demonstrated that this work at a distance was having a measurable positive impact on the nature and wildlife of these areas. The practice went through a journey from radionics, to resonance therapy, to ECOtherapy and now to ECOintention, and led to what became the Center for ECOintention. Dr. Merry has also been responsible for bringing the PEAR equipment to the Broughton Sanctuary in Yorkshire, UK, to create a visitor experience to tell the PEAR story and have people experience directly their interconnectedness with the world around them. (See The Wyrd Experience.)

Peter is co-founding Chief Innovation Officer at Ubiquity University and is one of the world’s top experts on transformative leadership, working in and across different sectors, training government ministers, CEOs and civil society leaders In facilitating integral change processes in multinational corporations and government ministries. He is a recognised expert in the field of futureproof learning, evolutionary systems dynamics and integral leadership. He had his first book published in English and Dutch (Evolutionary Leadership, 2005) a second one in 2019 called Why Work? on designing work for people and planet, and a third one in November 2020 called Leading from the Field that describes 12 principles for working consciously with the energetic information fields of any project that you lead. He has an MSc in Human Ecology from Edinburgh University and a PhD from Ubiquity’s Wisdom School on volution theory. For more information, see https://petermerry.org, and LinkedIn.

21 August 2021: Vasileios Basios, Complexity, Complementarity, and Transitions

Vasileios is a senior researcher at the Physics of Complex Systems Department of the University of Brussels, where he conducts interdisciplinary research on self-organisation and emergence in complex matter, complementarity, and aspects of the foundations of complex systems. During his formative years he worked within the team of Ilya Prigogine at the Solvay Institutes for Physics and Chemistry in Brussels. He is interested on the history of ideas in science and their role in the transformation of science beyond the prevailing mechanistic world-view. He believes that never before has the need for a qualitative change in science been so apparent and pressing and that complexity studies have made such a radical change not just possible but imperative. He is inspired by the prospect of introducing self-reflection into the practice and the understanding of science, and he aspires to contribute insights from complex systems science that can help put forth a resilient, flexible and robust network of networks comprising of individuals, groups, organizations and research initiatives towards this noble goal.

Vasileios will take us on an exciting journey through chaos and complexity theory as an essential condition for developing more sophisticated and reliable thinking in relation to consciousness studies, especially towards a self-reflexive interdisciplinary science of consciousness as envisioned by the Galileo Commission, and will discuss prospects of current ICRL Galileo Commission, and will discuss prospects of current ICRL projects along these lines.

24 July 2021: Stephan Schwartz, Mind Rover – Archaeological Exploration with Remote Viewing

The key question of Stephan’s talk is: “Can some aspect of human consciousness obtain sense impressions from a distant locale, the unknown past, or from the future, via an anomalous information channel that can be objectively validated?”

Stephan is a scientist, futurist, and award-winning author and novelist, a Distinguished Consulting Faculty of Saybrook University, and a BIAL Fellow. His daily web publication Schwartzreport.net covers trends that are affecting the future. He has been studying the nature of consciousness for over 40 years, particularly that aspect independent of space and time. He is part of the small group that founded modern Remote Viewing research, and is the principal researcher studying the use of Remote Viewing in archaeology. In addition to his own non-fiction works and novels, he is the author of more than 200 technical reports, papers, and academic book chapters, and has written numerous magazine articles for Smithsonian, OMNI, American History, American Heritage, The Washington Post, The New York Times, as well as other magazines and newspapers.

19 June 2021: Ulisse Di Corpo and Antonella Vannini:  Syntropy, Life, and Attractors

Most of us are familiar with the concept of entropy, the dissipative process that indicates the degree of disorder or uncertainty in a closed physical system. Entropy is unidirectional and always proceeds forward in time, but it fails to account for many scientific paradoxes, such as life itself. Less well known is its complementary principle: syntropy, the subject of this presentation. Syntropy produces a continuous increase in complexity through the action of attractors that emanate from the future and provides systems with their purpose and design. Rather than generating disorder, syntropy draws individuals and systems together. Syntropy can be regarded as the life force that emanates from the unifying action of love.

Ulisse Di Corpo holds degrees in experimental psychology and a PhD in statistics and social research. He works in the field of social research and provides methodological support and software tools to researchers. In 1977 he developed the vital needs theory, which was the subject of his theses in psychology and statistics and stems from the conflict between syntropy and entropy.

Antonella Vannini is a practicing psychotherapist and hypnotherapist with a PhD in cognitive psychology and has conducted experimental research on emotions and retrocausality. A Thai Chi instructor and expert in martial arts, Vannini is interested in the encounter between East and West. She is now exploring techniques to harmonize mind and body, as well as developing the vital needs theory and the uses of the law of syntropy in the field of psychotherapy.

More about their work can be found at: www.sintropy.org and www.sintropia.it.

22 May 2021: Apela Colorado on From Confrontation to Collaboration, Indigenous and Western Sciences at the Crossroads.

Apela Colorado Ph.D., of Oneida-Gaul ancestry, has dedicated her life’s work to bridge Western thought and indigenous worldviews. As a Ford Fellow, Dr. Colorado studied for her doctorate at both Harvard and Brandeis Universities and received her Ph.D. from Brandeis in Social Policy in 1982. She founded the Worldwide Indigenous Science Network (WISN) https://wisn.org/ in 1989 to:
• Foster the revitalization, growth, and worldwide exchange of traditional knowledge;
• Safeguard the lives and work of the world’s endangered indigenous culture practitioners;
• Develop an interface with Western science

In 1997, Dr. Colorado was one of twelve women chosen from 52 countries by the State of the World Forum to be honored for her role as a woman leader.

Apela says of herself: My Oneida (tribe) and French ancestry, historically oppositional forces, created a schism in me. I was neither Indian enough nor white enough to live in either world. I had to reconcile my white, French, colonizer genealogy in order to be whole. I began to search, and after many years found my ancestral home in the south of France, the Occitan indigenous people and cultural ceremonies in the Paleolithic painted caves of the Dordogne.

I left a fully tenured university professorship position thirty-two years ago to establish a non-profit organization, the Worldwide Indigenous Science Network, an upstart organization that challenges the world to embrace its Indigenous roots, to admit to our cultural shadows and to join arm in arm to reclaim our heritage of clean air, waters, and earth as the competition increases for the earth’s remaining energy resources (most of which are on Indigenous lands).

3 April 2021: David Lorimer on Gnosis in a Future Science of Consciousness.

David is a writer, poet, lecturer, and editor, who is founder of Character Education Scotland, Programme Director of the Scientific and Medical Network, and former President of the Wrekin Trust and the Swedenborg Society. He has taught philosophy and modern languages at Winchester College, is a founding member of the International Futures Forum, and was a Trustee of the St. Andrews Prize for the Environment, among his many contributions and honors.

At the age of 24, David pressed the “Eject” button from his conventional career path in merchant banking and set off on a quest for wisdom and a deeper understanding of life. Since that time, he has devoted his life to education in the broadest sense, and his path has led him to the study of philosophy, meaning and spirituality, consciousness, death and transformation, and responsibility, ethics and society, and he has published over a dozen books that address these concepts. The last 50 years have seen the rise of interest in mystical and near death experiences and their significance for the nature of consciousness and reality. He suggests that these are one expression of no-dual gnosis that can give us an insight into deeper structures of consciousness where head and heart come together, pointing to an overall participatory approach beyond the dichotomy of subject and object.

David’s newly published book, “A Quest for Wisdom: Inspiring Purpose on the Path of Life,” brings together 25 of his highly acclaimed essays examining the nature of life and death, questions of meaning and purpose, and the challenge of how we can live more harmoniously together. He hopes that readers will be inspired, as Dr Albert Schweitzer put it, in our common task ‘to become more finely and deeply human.’

13 March 2021: Dr. Jim Tucker speaks on Children’s Memories of Past Lives.

Children’s reports of memories from a past life have been the focus of study at the University of Virginia for nearly 60 years. Beginning with Ian Stevenson, researchers have investigated more than 2,500 cases from around the world. Dr. Jim Tucker will provide us with a review of the research, emphasizing recent work on cases in the US.

Jim B. Tucker, MD, is a child psychiatrist and the Bonner-Lowry Professor of Psychiatry and Neurobehavioral Sciences at the University of Virginia. He is Director of the UVA Division of Perceptual Studies, where he continues the work of Ian Stevenson on children who report memories of previous lives.

He is the author of two books that together have been translated into twenty languages, Life Before Life: A Scientific Investigation of Children’s Memories of Previous Lives (2005) and Return to Life: Extraordinary Cases of Children Who Remember Past Lives (2013), a New York Times bestseller.

His publications include numerous papers in scientific journals, and he has given presentations to both scientific and general audiences. He has also been interviewed on such programs as Good Morning America, CBS Sunday Morning, and NPR Weekend Edition.

20 February 2021: Don Campbell’s talk, Creativity: It’s Not What You Think, draws on over 30 years of his experience as a sculptor to share how he pushes the creative boundaries of his own work. Citing some of the great artists, innovators and change makers of our time, Don shows artists and non-artists how to:

• Stimulate the flow of creativity through a process of “deep listening.”
• Expand listening capacity to include intuition.
• Express creativity through sensing, not thinking.
• Align oneself with one’s life’s purpose.
• Overcome the obstacles that stop most people from following their creative impulse.
• Achieve “presence” and “stillness,” the essential portals to higher creativity.

Don Campbell is an award winning sculptor who lives in Skillman, New Jersey. His sculptures have been in shows throughout New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania and Canada. He has taught portrait and figurative sculpting. He works primarily in clay, sculpting realistic portraits and figurative works and likes to explore improvisational sculpting.

07 November 2020: In his talk, The Heart and the Field of Collective Consciousness, Rollin McCraty discussed the Global Coherence Initiative (GCI), which is examining the interactions between humanity and the earth’s energetic fields. An important aspect of the GCI is the Global Coherence Monitoring System which is designed to measure the resonances in the magnetic fields generated by the earth and ionosphere. Data showing correlations between rhythms in solar, geomagnetic, and ionospheric fields and human nervous system activity will be shown, including data that suggests humanity is far more interconnected with each other and the earth’s magnetic field environment that previously imagined.

Rollin McCraty, Ph.D. is Director of Research of the HeartMath Research Center at the HeartMath Institute. As a psycho-physiologist, Dr. McCraty’s research interests include the physiology of emotion, heart-brain communication and the global interconnectivity between people and the earth’s energetic systems. Findings from this research have been applied to the development of tools and technology to optimize individual and organizational health, performance, and quality of life. He has been featured in a number of documentary films such as I am, The Truth, The Joy of Sox movie, The Power of the Heart, Solar Revolution, Deconstructing Sentience, and The Living Matrix among many others.

Michael A. Cremo: Human Origins and Antiquity: A Vedic Perspective. The Vedic historical texts contain accounts of a human presence extending much further back in time than modern science allows. There is archeological evidence consistent with this. Michael will review some examples of such evidence, as documented in his book Forbidden Archeology, and share his experiences in presenting it to scientific audiences.

Michael A. Cremo is an independent researcher in human origins and antiquity. He is a member of the World Archaeological Congress and the European Association of Archaeologists. Cremo is the principal author of the book Forbidden Archeology (mentioned above), a comprehensive historical survey of archaeological anomalies, and is also author of Human Devolution: A Vedic Alternative to Darwin’s Theory. Cremo examines human origins and antiquity from a worldview with foundations in ancient Indian thought.

Wayne Jonas, MD Getting from Health Care to Health and Wellbeing. Dr. Jonas, a practicing family physician, an expert in integrative health and health care delivery, and a widely published scientific investigator, will speak on the need to “get from health care to health and wellness” as explained in his book, How Healing Works, published in 2018 by Ten Speed Press. From 2001-2016, Dr. Jonas was Chief Executive Officer of Samueli Institute, a nonprofit medical research organization supporting the scientific investigation of healing processes in the areas of stress, pain and resilience. Dr. Jonas was Director of the Office of Alternative Medicine at the NIH from 1995-1999, and prior to that, served as Director of the Medical Research Fellowship at the Walter Reed Army Institute of Research. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Family Physicians.

Ruth Rosenbaum: The Space of Transformation: Exploring Unseen Dimensions of Healing.  Over thirty years of studies have shown that the most significant factor in positive change in psychotherapy, more important than any particular technique or theory, is the relationship, the bond, between patient and therapist. This talk explores the non-linear, intersubjective nature of this bond and the clues it reveals regarding the paradigm shift that often accompanies deep personal transformation. Ruth Rosenbaum, Ph.D., is a licensed psychoanalyst in private practice of psychotherapy for over 25 years. She is also a certified biofeedback therapist, a certified Kundalini yoga instructor, and has studied Tibetan Buddhist philosophy and meditation with Lama Pema Wangdak. Her clinical work facilitates the integration of mind, body and spirit.

Scott McVay: Stuff on the Edge. From Scott McVay’s book Surprise Encounters with Artists and Scientists, Whales and Other Living Things, given five stars by Kirkus, he will choose one-third of 152 stories to weave a tapestry of “Stuff on the Edge.” He is excited at the prospect of beginning with Aimee Morgana and Kisi, a loquacious African grey parrot, and Rupert Sheldrake, tuning the talk to the raison d’etre of the ICRL for maximum interaction. Among the persons to be touched on is the The Dalai Lama, two dolphins with a fidelity almost beyond our comprehension, another who reveals how dolphins can save humans, an Inuit, Raymond Aguvluk, who knows whales beyond the Bowhead and Beluga, the sonic response of Orcas to a wild night of the Aurora borealis, Carl Sagan, Pete Dunne, NJ’s lead birder, the Loch Ness Monster, the turning point of a life, shuffling off the mortal coil…plus a few poems.
