Conversations Beyond Science And Religion Philip Comella

It is now evident that if there will be an awakening — a true enlightenment — it will be a radical one.  The concept of “awakening” permeates the world’s religious and spiritual literature.  We awaken to a new day; a new dawn; a new self; shed material entrapments; and rise above it all.  In each […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Radical Awakening appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

God is a concept we place on the shelf like an old book and let it sit there.  The book contains what everyone else — priests, rabbis, scientists, parents, and the media — have told us about God.  But what do you think?  The new movie, IGod, co-produced by this week’s guest, Bob Friedman (along […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – IGod appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

What we commonly call “religion” is in many ways simply the most popular interpretation of historical texts and words attributed to past spiritual leaders. Religious beliefs, such as the notion that Jesus Christ “died for our sins,” become part of an interpretive system for approaching phenomena that lie beyond the physical world. For better or […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Lost Teachings of the Cathars appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Law and science are both based upon evidence: you can only prove a case in law if you have credible and probative evidence to support your side of the story. In the same way, a scientific theory rises or falls based upon the degree of evidence — and repeatable tests — supporting it. Interestingly, the […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Mark Anthony: Evidence of Eternity appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Few people bring the authenticity to the notion of spiritual awakening as this week’s guest, Simran, award-winning publisher of 11:11 Magazine and host of the top-rated, syndicated 11:11 Talk Radio show.  Life is  synchronistic hologram, an unfolding of the self, an outpouring of inner meaning.  It begins, as Simran writes in her new book,Journey to Love – Discover […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – A Conversation with Simran appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

According to Jared Diamond, “evolution is the most profound and powerful idea to have been conceived in the last two centuries.”  Almost all biologists no longer consider evolution “just a theory;” rather, it’s a fact.  The textbooks say that evolution is the selection and preservation of favorable mutations across generations.  Genes mix and match, and […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Evolution of Innovation appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Quantum physics talks — at times esoterically — about the connection between consciousness and the outside world.  There are no particles “out there;” only probabilities; wave equations; and bits of nothing. Does the mind choose reality, or create reality?  In physics, we tend to consider this topic abstractly, distancing ourselves from the subject matter, which […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Genie in Your Genes appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

We are accustomed to encountering the concept of evolution in the biological sense, but it is growing increasingly evident that consciousness also evolves across generations.  If so, then at some point a generation will arise that, in the words of this week’s guest, Kingsley Dennis, will “be born as change” not “into change.”  This new generation […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Kingsley Dennis: The Phoenix Generation appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

We are taught that one reaches spiritual truths through revelation, meditation, the contemplation of the divine, and soul-raising experiences.  Logic, on the other hand, involves rigorous, step-by-step thinking. Right brain vs. left brain.  Reason vs. emotion.  Logic is for science, not for spirituality.  But might there be a logical path to spirituality?  Is there a […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Logical Path to Spirituality appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

It seems that everyone, from Oprah Winfrey to Robert Murdoch to Sam Harris, is getting on the meditation bandwagon.  Amazon lists thousands of books on meditation, each one offering another method to connect with the Inner Self, or describing profound experiences and revelations produced through meditation.  But is meditation all that it cracks up to […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – A Buddha Pill? appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

The discoveries of science continue to show that the universe is riddled with mysteries that continue to elude even the most power instruments of modern technology.  The more one looks, the broader and deeper the mysteries seem to become.  One of these little advertised mysteries is known as the faint young sun paradox.  According to […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Faint Young Sun Paradox appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

In this show from the archives, I speak with best-selling author, Larry Dossey, M.D., about his newest book, One Mind: How Our Individual Mind is Part of a Greater Consciousness and Why it Matters.  In this show, Larry and I discuss how all signs are pointing to the truth of the age-old spiritual teaching that behind […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Larry Dossey and the One Mind appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

Everyone wants to find their true self, if only they had the time and the directions for getting there. Connecting the higher self with the lower self or the ego with the soul sounds like a good idea but it also has the air of the mystical.  What do these words mean and what good […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – A Proven Method to Discover Your Purpose appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

The notion that there is one mind underlying reality is as old as thought itself.  The early Upanishads, written thousands of years ago, say that “Truly the self is mind.  Truly the world is mind.  Truly Brahman is Mind.”  If we are connected to One Mind, that means our natural disposition is to be part […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – The Transcendent Mind appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

At some point science may find God, and then things will really change.  We are accustomed to believing in God based on faith and revelation; the instruments of science, it is said, show no signs of God.  But then again, maybe they do. In his new book, God’s Blueprint – Scientific Evidence that Earth was […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – God’s Blueprint appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

The modern mind seeks a new story and this story will need a new language.  The story will not be told in the language of materialism — random particles, impersonal forces, and a world without purpose — but instead in the language of consciousness.  Phrases such as “connecting with your soul” and “evolving to a […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Dimensions of the Soul appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

As Yogi Berra once said, predictions are very difficult, particularly ones about the future.  The difficulty of predicting the future has not stopped many people from trying their hand at crystal-ball gazing: from stock picking, to sport betting, to weather predictions, and astrology, seeing into the future has continued to mesmerize the mind.  If only […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Nostradamus Predicts the Next President appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

“I pass through the roof of the building as if it’s not even there and then I see that the ordinary scene of the concert below that I’m part of, is now bathed in an all-encompassing light.”  So writes this week’s guest, Patricia Walker, in her new book, Dance of the Electric Hummingbird: An Ordinary […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Enlightenment in a Rock-and-Roll Bar appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.

To reach a new worldview, a new way of thinking, we will need to go beyond what we now know as science and religion; both today are immersed in their own misconceptions. One unique feature of the new book, Delusions in Science and Spirituality: The Fall of the Standard Model and the Rise of Knowledge […] The post Conversations Beyond Science and Religion – Delusions in Science and Spirituality appeared first on WebTalkRadio.net.
