Who are they really? The Truth Behind Humanity's Greatest Thinkers
Ойын-сауық
History is full of highly accomplished and credentialed thinkers who spent much of their time researching paranormal phenomena. Oftentimes, these intellectuals are only remembered for the aspects of their research that is easily digested by the academy and the public. Dr. Jeffrey Kripal of Rice University has spend decades exploring these thinkers and the implications of their work. He has drawn some surprising (and exciting) conclusions.

Dr. Kripal is the cutting edge of the cutting edge! Great interview. Thank you!
This man is an absolute gift to humanity
Loved this interview, Adam. What a fascinating discussion. The last half was especially interesting when you got into discussions about William James’ view on these mystical matters. As a scientist, it is so important to be challenged by these views. I was especially interested in the concept of panenthiesm that Kripal mentioned at the end of the interview. Thanks for the wonderful work that you are doing with this podcast!

This comment made my day. Very happy to see scientists approaching Kripal's ideas with an open mind!
Jeff, send him your 20 Gnomons
How come when we go to altered states we always meet Egyptian looking Gods ?So fascinating! I grew up mono (Catholic ).. I just realised I am also a comparativist . Cool . Through my tiny sample size this rings true . Was astounded to hear the same accounts in other dmt trips from others all over the world. Would not have thought those Gods were a dominant part of collective consciousness. I’m not religious anymore ,I don’t believe in God. Which one? However I do believe in Source , Love. Definitely Human super powers❤🧬❤️🧬❤️
No Spinoza ??
There is no evidence for the Supernatural. Why not admit it?
