The Living Universe – Documentary about Consciousness and Reality | Waking Cosmos
Since the time of Plato, the human understanding of the universe has moved through two epoch-defining paradigms. These are the view of the universe as a great mind, moving into the view of the universe as a great machine. Today there are signs that the modern mind is moving towards an organismic view of the universe, apprehended as an evolving, self-generating, and ultimately living process. This film is based on an essay I wrote for my philosophy master’s degree, inspired by the work of, among others, Brian Swimme, Thomas Berry, Thomas Nagel, and Richard Tarnas.

Yeshe Tsogyal: Her Life and Enlightenment
Yeshe Tsogyal was the first Tibetan to achieve full enlightenment. She is the mother of Tibetan Buddhism and of the Dzogchen tradition. She is revered by Tibetans as the foremost disciple and consort of Padmasambhava, the eighth-century tantric master who established Buddhism in Tibet. Yeshe Tsogyal is also celebrated for transcribing Padmasambhava’s teachings and preserving them for future generations. In this talk, Yeshe Tsogyal will be discussed as a perfect practitioner, a perfect disciple and a perfect Master as well as a shining example of View, Meditation and Conduct. The talk was given by Pema Düddul, the Buddhist Chaplain in the University of Southern Queensland’s Multi-Faith Service and the Director of Jalü Buddhist Meditation Centre. Pema has decades of experience as a Buddhist practitioner and has taught mindfulness and meditation in Buddhist and educational settings since 2007. Pema is ordained as a Ngakpa in the Nyingma school of Tibetan Buddhism.
Michael Moore Presents: Planet of the Humans | Full Documentary | Directed by Jeff Gibbs
Michael Moore presents Planet of the Humans, a documentary that dares to say what no one else will — that we are losing the battle to stop climate change on planet earth because we are following leaders who have taken us down the wrong road — selling out the green movement to wealthy interests and corporate America. This film is the wake-up call to the reality we are afraid to face: that in the midst of a human-caused extinction event, the environmental movement’s answer is to push for techno-fixes and band-aids. It’s too little, too late.

The power of the mind – Interview with Bruce Lipton
Are memories stored in brains? -Rupert Sheldrake & Alex Gómez-Marín
After more than a hundred hours of private conversations on Zoom, Rupert and physicist turned neuroscientist Alex Gómez-Marín meet in person to discuss some of their favourite themes.
In this installment, they address the problem of memory localization.
Rather than taking for granted that memories are “stored” inside our heads and rushing to speculate about where and how, they instead entertain the idea that memories could be both everywhere and nowhere in particular — memories are in time, not in space.
To make such thoughts more thinkable, they discuss the recurrent historical failures to find actual memory traces in brains and bring forth some of the pioneering ideas of the French philosopher Henri Bergson in the context of current neuroscience.
They also discuss concrete experiments to test such hypotheses and reflect more widely on the nature of form and the idea that the laws of nature may be more like habits than eternal edicts. They end by discussing the need for scientific pluralism.
