TEDxSanDiego - 2011 - Martha Beck - The Four Technologies of Magic

Ғылым және технология

In our time of rapid technological progression and increasing global challenges, Dr. Martha Beck guides us back to practicing the technologies of magic from ancient cultures. Through her research, she's identified 4 steps that people of traditional cultures all over the world have practiced: Wordlessness, Oneness, Imagination, and Forming. Dr. Beck's talk takes us through the African bush and across oceans to show how we can figure out what to do with our one wild and precious life.

    I just read the book and found it riveting...I couldn't put it down, so as soon as I finished it I started reading it again from the beginning. When Martha speaks, my heart perks up its ears and pays attention.

    i found this truly wonderful. Worth listening to the VERY end! A great challenge there, and a great opportunity for our own bliss and thereby helping to 'fix what we have broken' on this planet.

    Amazing book. As a PhD and a healer, there's nothing better than applied reason + magic. Thanks Martha, delighted to know there's a TEAM :)

    "..I could feel a calm, a stillness, emanating from them as they imagined this crisis ending well..." That's it, that's where we are humanity. Imagining solutions, better outcomes, divine answers, positive results. And accepting nothing less. Raising the vibe tribe x

    i have been doing thiss- for me a it's a bit like EMDR. You widen your focuses like opening a window on your computer...you can't use a mouse- so, it's a blind feeling, intuitive and feeling exercise or movement.

    I loved everything but the focus on devastation. If instead we look with that softness on this world, if we allow the harsh focus on all that is wrong to soften into the softness of a loving oneness, the solutions will evolve. We will all experience a new awakening into a world that finds the joy of true connection and non-verbal kindness through the soft eyes of the life we choose to live. This is what happened with the rhino, softness of connection with sentient beings - human and animal,

    Stress Response: adrenaline dump, auditory exclusion, tunnel vision, loss of fine motor skills/dexterity, time distortion, short-term memory loss, and reliance on pure instinct (your modern, educated mind shuts off and is replaced by your animal or caveman mind). This is why so many police shootings occur in situations that don't seem to make sense: the stress response in the officers involved took over possibly erroneously and Fight, Flight, or Freeze replaced rational thought, sometimes ending in tragedy. We're training for elements of personal and public safety when we should be training police how to manage the stress response so that it isn't triggered by the anticipation of deadly danger in every interaction. We've trained our police to respond with one canned response to every conceivable danger, then trained them to anticipate danger as a hand in a pocket, a sudden movement, an unthinking hike of falling pants and to respond with deadly force. In the moment of the stress response, there is no differentiating between genuine danger and the perception of it. Like when you're sitting in a movie theater and you can feel changes in your body triggered by the events you're watching on the screen. A part of your brain cannot differentiate between real and perceived danger. But if you're trained to respond as quickly and decisively as possible to the slightest danger as if it is your only chance to survive, you will inevitably shoot someone who posed no real threat to you.

    She cites anecdotes but no statistically significant data. Her observations of various randomly selected people do not constitute reliable patterns.
