Thank you. As a 81 year old woman, the thought evolution toward a consciousness/energy that connects us all just makes sense from my life long experience. You have had to step ahead of the pack , that you for your courage to do so
This is simply the most eloquent and inspiring talk I've heard in years. Thank you for this - genius - please keep broadcasting so the world may wake up.
Dr Rupert Sheldrake is a paradigmatic example of a true intellectual, one who can explain complex ideas and phenomena succinctly due to his qualities of erudition and great understanding.Thanks again, Rupert!🙏
Rupert Sheldrake, you are the greatest scientist alive today! I've been following your work since "Science Set Free." Not only are you my favorite author and researcher, your lectures and your thoughts that you share on RUclips I find to be interesting, informative, and incredibly brilliant! All of your work has greatly influenced my view of nature and the universe. In short, my world view has changed to be more holistic and much less mechanistic because of your teachings. I look forward to reading your new book.
Thanks for this wonderful talk. This is someone I would call a true scientist - someone who is not afraid to explore in the unknown reaches of existence, and beyond dogmatic corporate-controlled "science". Indeed, we need more people like you, Rupert.
Excellent! 👍🙏♥️ Thank you. As a studied philosopher and sociologist of culture I just love listening to you. Great mind you are. Resonating with so many of us ... The dawn of a new science.
Wow!!! Thankyou so much!! You're my hero Rupert Sheldrake ! I'm so glad you were Terrance McKenna's friend or I might not ever have found you. God's speed precious man !! 🙏🏻
Voices which have been there for many years are now being discovered for the first time by many, Rupert is a genuine scientist, consensus is not the point, asking questions is!
A genuine scientist would convince his peers with the strength of his arguments... I don't see a lot of that happening but I don't know where the fault lies.
Most of them are moving to panpsychism.. I'd consider that a start... plus many covertly cheer for him in silence. His arguments are sound. It's the institution that is compromised. No need for us to be fools and believe it's benevolent....
Thank you for again entering our field . Really enjoyed your wise complication . Certainly we have become a meantime species. As 95% is left out of the define. But the Great All is morphing us in process and the fact you appear in our space is iluminating. " ask and you shall receive" Look forward to your book. God bless you and thanks for all other inspiration to make the world better.
Nerdy, but also quite a refreshing approach. As a fellow scientist, we need to support thinkers like Sheldrake, as they keep us from covering ourselves in a box and preventing creativity in science. We all know that there is more going on than 'just' materialism, let's not be afraid to admit it.
Rupert, I've known you since that beautiful debate with Krishnamurti, Hidley and Boom. I love you and keep up shining your beautifu consciousness in this world
Oh ! so very, very happy to see/hear Dr. Sheldrake again! Let us hear more from him! He is a lovely man , in every way, and his beautiful manner of speaking in discussion /lessons on Consciousness is refreshing to one's ears and mind, quite enjoyable to hear over and over.
Rupert, you a total gem! I feel absolutely blessed in my lifetime to have your work to contemplate, for what other order is there, than the sense you make of everything that is natural and holy that humans continually puzzle over...
Albert Einstein quote: Concerning matter, we have been all wrong. What we have called matter is really energy, whose vibration has been lowered as to be perceivable to the senses.
No physicist would deny it. They teach you this in the first week at any Physics university. 99.99% of the mass in your body is the energy of gluons bumping into each other inside protons and neutrons. But since they are confined inside the particles and can't exist free im nature, we call it matter.
@Florifulgurator take some dmt and see for yourself... all the nobel prize winners said the same... planck, einstein, bohr, schroedinger, heisenberg...etc... and than study eastern philosophy... and read the bible well and you will see they all come to the same end point!! we been just fooled since we born... or do you remember when u were born? lol
Nice association Rupert . . . noting how "things so insignificant they are barely touched upon in biology textbooks have changed our lives, our economies, the way we live upon the Earth." Lovely presentation. The planet and even my cats say "thank you."
Thank you so much Rupert. I wish this talk and others could also be availailable in other languages. They are popular in the best way imageable.

I loved it when I found out that I share much DNA with the grass that I love to walk on with bare feet. Listening to R. Sheldrake is the mind and heart of that experience. Saying yes to the mystery and embracing the realities.
Leibniz , “the last great universal genius,” also laid out the idea in The Monadology. Organisms within organisms, all supported, made possible by a soul/ monad. These filled every infinitesimal space, forming larger monads al the way up to the entire universe. All reflected within all. “Each in their own way striving toward the infinite. “
Rupert is my favorite scientist and I consider him one of the most original and pure scientists alive. His morphic resonance theory really intrigues me to think about how DNA codes for proteins and then what happens next - how are life's 3D features coded and expanded during growth? He's planted this seed of frustration in my fertile scientific head.
That might be one of the best one hours of RUclips I've watched in lockdown. Thank you. Now I am compelled to finish off reading Animate Earth by Stephan Harding. Also, I would sure love if you were able to have a conversation with some of the peeps connected to tech and the Silicon Valley given their influence on our society. I am off the impression that they totally lack this level of understanding and I can see nothing but good coming from this. The trajectory of say transhumanist thought, negating this would be a catastrophe x
I've been attempting to introduce Rupert's ideas to my friends for years, but to almost no avail, and more recently I've also become an embarrassingly huge fan of Cosmo's music, also not to the (apparent) interest of my friends (gotta get some new friends?)....so...I am elated to see so many positive comments and appreciators of his glorious mind. I knew I was not alone in appreciating him, of course, but we are certainly scientific pioneers. If you have not yet heard him, I highly recommend taking a listen to Cosmo's tunes. If you love Rupert, you'll likely love Cosmo.
hey mate, I know how it is to feel alienated when you feel you're discovering new aspects of yourself and the world, often shedding parts of your old self. It's been like that for me too. However, compassion and "walking the walk" will always win over trying to convince people on the level of intellect. That's my experience anyways. I'll check out Cosmo's music... cheers from a likeminded in Norway.
@@JonnaaM Yes. I've also come to that conclusion. It will manifest of it's own accord. All I need to do is develop it within myself, if you know what I mean. Enjoy Cosmo. He's also a genius. Perhaps even moreso. :)
Rupert's wife Jill Purce does lovely group healing work, shamanic, a variant of family constellations. You can join in if you wish. (Also big fan of Cosmo Sheldrake!)
This is all very well, but i only asked you if you'd like salt and vinegar on your chips. :). I think i've just listened to 5000 brilliant sentences. Rupert always blows with mind.
With 'conventional religion' I was referring to religions which dominated in the west. Judaism and christianity. The idea that there is a "ruling god, who is above all, whom you must love, because he says so" has also been responsible for a lot of suffering through a backward thinking. These religions are not fundamentally bad, they're just another way of putting humans down (same as scientific realism).
Just a reminder Albert Einstein said "The field is the sole governing agency of the particle" By extrapolation and through evolution fields are responsible for structure and complexity. Teilhard de Chardin indicated that human self awareness added a new layer of consciousness he called homization whereby humans achieved a sense of immortality. I think Dr. Sheldrake has pretty much proved that morphogenetic fields impact genetics and provide natural memory of form (and perhaps some functions?). This has led me to electromagnetic fields and non-local holographic memory. As the good doctor explains, the soul according to Aristotle is our form and form is a result of morphic fields and morphogenetic interactions. This is helpful in understanding our identity, our soul is form-based in what we think now is an electromagnetic type field outside the visible perception range of humans. It might explain how ghosts or visitation spirits look the same as they did when alive and some think that reincarnation somehow applies our "soul" (EMF?)as a formation genesis of the human body, providing a "template" for our new body. Moreso, if the memory of all things are in the zero-point field, non-local, that would mean the body/brain is a transceiver of consciousness and memory rather than consciousness and memory being emergent properties. Thank you Dr. Sheldrake for your strength, faith and inspiration.
Could you ever do a structured lesson-series where you synthesize a lot of your work and provide direction for future inquiry? Thanks for everything. :)
Dark matter and dark energy... “it’s as if science had discovered the Cosmic Unconscious.” That blew my mind-perfect analogy. Reality as embedded microcosms (nested hierarchies).
The catchword "nested hierarchies" indeed is crucially helpful. Especially as it illustrates how far you still get with a mechanistic worldview, also after accepting psychological influences across time and space. I altogether wonder if materialism and spiritualism could not perhaps one day begin to merge into a monism that will be methodically backed up, according to the latest standards.
Rupert Sheldrake is inspiring on so many levels. Reminds me of my Secondary school Teacher. I reckon Carl Jung's psychological theories tie well with the idea of Morphogenetic fields, even the holographic universe concept, as his idea for the collective unconscious, fuctions much like the World Soul. The Electric/Plasma universe paradigm also could possibly pave the way to explaining such realms of thought as Consciousness and Cosmology, to weather and the structuring properties of water and charge seperation.
Thank you for this speech! And sharing your, and those you have studied thinking. I was thinking about a year ago that if the consciusness grows from atoms to minerals, minerals to plants, plants to animals and animals to human, then maybe it goes from humans to planets, planets to suns and from suns to black holes and when you get to black hole you get to create new universe. We are getting there. For me, especially the part when you explained view that objects/things that "create themselves" are consciuss was beatiful and "eye opening".
What about elephants? Aren't they more human than we, sometimes? Like the one in Vienna that gave the human baby back to its mother, with the trunk, after it had rolled before its feet? It also would interest me where the brain of a planet should be.
I read Sheldrake's 'The rebirth of nature...' circa 18 years ago. The paperback edition of the work I read was subtitled "the new Animism" but I have been unable to source it on the Internet. It must have been an obscure reissue or imprint from a different publication house or somesuch. I was already an experiential Animist prior to reading this work but his eloquence and the provocative redirection of scientific discourse I found informative and informed my worldview. I greatly value the scientific method and the building of human knowledge founded on literary citation and the peer-reviewed consensus of the scientific community. But the philosophy of science has philosophical problems as Sheldrake sketches in his critique of Mechanistic Materialism. Science is only one way of knowing in the human experience, there are others. This audiovisual lecture by Sheldrake is clearly thematically linked to his published work of the same name but presents a continuation of his endeavour and research since its publication. I feel this audiovisual presentation is deserving of repeated viewing, listening and reflection. I have only read that one book of his a long time ago: it may be timely to read another. Finally, the intersection of Consciousnes Studies and Zoosemiology of manifold forms of plant and animal communication, demonstrates the flawed philosophical reductionism of Mechanistic Materialism and the last circa 400 years of scientific discourse.
knuckle dragging science holding us all back, most just interested in tenure. Thank you for sharing what most people have always known, that the earth & everything in it & on it are not mechanical 💖
Perhaps the 'new science' will be individual and direct experiences of the joys of life - peace, harmony, play, etc... and which will continue to materialize in our world as we (humanity) resume our role in nature.
Interesting, I've been working the animate worldview as an extension to the scientific worldview. It is based on applied science research & participation research by going "deep digital". This talks give me confidence I'm on the right path, showing a stronger relation to the history of philosophy. So thank you.
@@LeonGalindoStenutz not on the worldview itself, but I do have a channel "deep digital" explaining the applied science part: ruclips.net/user/mixelkiemen I've been working for a while on the book. Not yet contacted any publisher, so if you have suggestions on where to publish it please share.
Thank you for these great talks, Rupert. I feel privileged to learn from you in this manner, and thanks to RUclips suggestions I found your channel. I recently viewed The Life and Ideas of David Bohm, and now am encouraged while seeing living humans carrying some of these ideas forward. It gives me hope. Loved discovering Merlin's work and book, also.
So pertinent and and fully resonate with your work/views Rupert 🙏 I wish I could articulate such things as well when trying to discuss and elaborate on such things.. it's a real pleasure listening to you talk Sir 🙏
What he's talking about at the very end with a scientific renaissance informed by the understanding of the living conscious universe that can direct more correct and useful behavior is essentially the goal and scope of permaculture
@@HansDunkelberg1 Permaculture is both a design science and philosophy based on natural patterns to help create sustainable or regenerative human habitations and lifeways
@@HansDunkelberg1 Not particularly. Usually it is used to help heal out relationship with the Earth and each other, but I am interested in the further reaching applications such as with AI and eventually if necessary off world, in which "nature" would mean the nature of space or a new cosmic body, and how to change it to be more Earth like or to change ourselves to be adapt to the new conditions. I think the general concept can reach far beyond nifty gardening and building methods, as many people see it
@@dirtgoatpermaculture The questions of gardening and building that appear as so trivial, here on Earth, become utterly complex, in space. Biosphere II has proven that. I presume that the problem generally is the smallness of the systems. The smaller it gets, the fewer possibilities has an ecological system to correct itself, with the help of resources from other places.
Hi Rupert. Fantastic presentation as usual. I’ve been following your work for quite a long time. Of particular interest to me was your morphic resonance theory as I have been developing a similar theory based on galactic as well as terrestrial electromagnetic fields and how there is potential interactions between them + the DNA of all living things. I believe this is what primarily drives evolution and is potentially the fabric of consciousness (after all we are just a collection of 500 trillion cells operating collectively). I believe these fields are the key to explaining previously unexplained phenomena like telepathy as well cellular sentience, racial memory and the ability for horoscope to accurately predict pronounced aspects of our individual personality/consciousness. Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do!
that life is the light deep inside in the human being ... the light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness has never comprehended it ... (prologue St. John)
Dr. Sheldrake, I find it fascinating that a Novel Virus appears in rough concurrence with Terence McKenna's theory of the novelty wave. His model, which he himself was a bit skeptical of in a good way, had 2012 as a key date. Therefore may we say he was only off by eight years? That's nothing. Not to overly signify the terms Novel and Novelty as McKenna used it, but I found it interesting. Thanks for your work. :-)
That was a beautiful listen....I’m a big fan of Dawkins and pretty anti-religion but that was a very eloquent and well researched monologue which, as any good bit of science should do, leaves me wondering and asking questions. Great work 👏✌️
Hello Rupert, in your various talks it would be good if you could start to say more about what you see as the application of morphic resonance theory (etc.) to mental healthcare, which, as you will know, is largely still centred around the biomedical model and the prescription of psychiatric drugs.
@Rupert Sheldrake - I just saw the gratitude talk at the horribly lit room however you wore a faint shadow which I liked. Dude. You have enough influence to move your talk to a resonant hall, I'll explain only as a singer. I am Virgo, like the janitor/director in my own adventure. Jolly good talk. I wanted to barf as the gratitude cascaded Niagara Falls of thank yooze at the end - clickout. Can't original folk afford your lectures? Working Theory. Why do YT channelers ignore poor people? That ain't right. Trialogues do exist in nature - all you need are two original people. Paradox - this comment is a thank you, I could hurl. I just remembered why I came here. Please, por favor, seebooplay read Castaneda's first 11 books (there are 13 - one is the Magical Passes - holey moley, makes yoga look like a mediocre holiday) and (you don't need to believe me) I am the only one who can translate Carlos' epic tomes into modern Newage Speak. I'm just saying that due to folk like yourself and Terence Carlos has taken on quite the turbocharged relevance. Cheers. I'm in Hollywood yes that one.
Thank you, Rupert. I didn't know that Medieval Christian theologians believed that our Divine Creator is in all living beings, and we are within Her Most Holy Being. It's what I believe.. I want to study more about Medieval Christianity, it seems to have been a time of great spiritual flowering within Christianity. I also learn a lot be watching NDE videos. And of course , from you. I read The Theory of Formative Causation many decades ago, when it came out. It gave me a greater understanding of time. I believe as well that space is not linear, but a, maybe infinite number if nesting orders of magnitude of life - concentric biomes of various scales - inter-penetrating, inter-acting. Time also is not linear. Astrophysicists now believe that at the very edge of a black hole, all points of time exist simultaneously, similar to the ancient and indigenous belief in the Eternal Now, in which all points of time are present. This concept helps me in my inner work spiritual practice where I focus on all of us humans as Beings of Divine White Light and Love, together at sort of the low orbital point where we are still connected to our Blessed Earth Mother, yet have a distinct sense of also being within the Divine Love energy being of our Great Cosmic Mother. Visualizing us as Beings of eternally radiant Divine White Light, I also keep in mind that we are (I believe ) experiencing a number of different physical manifestations simultaneously. Focusing on this higher truth while meditating keeps my mind clear of ego-based distractions and false limitations because I am more aware that I am not one name, one face, one set of circumstances, etc., but as a radiant, eternal being of Divine White Light am experiencing many physical manifestations at the same time. We could really do so much more good in the world, put out more positive, higher vibratory energies, if we integrated and normalized this more expansive, and truer sense of time. It also resonated with me what you said about an Attractor Field. That's how I conceive of the Holy Spirit, inter-penetrating us at a higher field level and guiding/inspiring us into greater alignment with our Divine nature. I think all species have their own Holy Spirit, or what in Hinduism is called the Devas, to guide all within that species into greater alignment with their eternal Divine essence. As one of the passages in the Wisdom Section of the Bible tells us regarding the Holy Spirit, Although alone, She can do all, Herself unchanging, She makes all things new She passes into holy Souls And makes them friends of God and prophets She deploys Her strength from one end of the Earth to the other Ordering all things together for good. Thank you again. Blessings from Upstate New York, US.
I just love listening to you speak! And I do agree with much of what you say! I think you are a an amazing man! Hard to believe people thought of sentient beings as machines! How ignorant, especially when indigenous tribes have always been in communication with all of life & retain their telepathy & teach us today as to how to use it, if we are willing. (Now called Interspecies Communication = Anna Breytenbach (Animal Communicator - Full Documentary) Jon Young (several documentaries about how he was mentored by the grandson of an Apache Elder, the San Bushman of So. Africa, the last free Apaches, et al.) The animals & indigenous peoples have been asking us to stop killing their habitats, according to Anna Breytenbach & a Documentary concerning our ‘older brothers’ in northern Columbia! They were spot on with most of what the scientific data were saying! Sadly, not all of modern man, aka ‘little brother’ understands this. But sooner or later, Gaia will once again wipe us out for the last time, leaving no remnant left if we don’t wise up, so to speak, according to Native American prophesie, and has happened in the past, while leaving a remnant, according to past Native American prophecies & Sumerian history! Also interesting, sadly, is among only the ‘civilized’ are there warring peoples. This begs the question, who, then, is indeed, more civilized? I thoroughly enjoyed this topic & look forward to rewatching your lecture on the sun being conscious! All my best to you, and yours, Mr. Sheldrake. I highly respect you & your work. Also, nice job speaking online for the first time! Well done!
I've read about a conspicuous bloodlust of the indigenous tribes of the Amazon. And I"ve read that before the 17th century, also Europeans have been much more brutal, in their everyday life, than since the advent of the modern era. Perhaps the organized wars of our centuries just bundle deeply engrained urges which under less civilized conditions will be set free in a bigger number of smaller outbursts. Sheldrake focuses on the history and plausibility of worldviews, meanwhile. He doesn't go into the sociological question of war and piece.
@@jonathonjubb6626 consciousness?I'm guessing like science could hypothetically grow all the organs and constituent parts of a body assemble them and yet it still wouldn't have consciousness
It is always such a pleasure to listen to your lectures. In fact, some of your theories and those of David Bohm I have included in a fictive thesis In a novel. If you have time to read it, you might find it both entertaining and informative...
The fact that you are out there, Rupert, gives me hope and makes me happy. Thanks for your whole life's work.
This might be my new favorite Rupert Sheldrake talk. He’s such a living treasure!
Indeed!
Imagine my experience because this was my first Rupert Sheldrake talk!
Oriole Aszme I recommend checking out his book Science Set Free.
He's a treasure indeed. To think that I was once a fan of Richard Dawkins... in my defense I was young and stupid ;)

I think I'm just going to have this man playing in the background all the time whatever I'm doing and just let it sink in.

However, compassion and "walking the walk" will always win over trying to convince people on the level of intellect. That's my experience anyways. I'll check out Cosmo's music... cheers from a likeminded in Norway.
@@JonnaaM Yes. I've also come to that conclusion. It will manifest of it's own accord. All I need to do is develop it within myself, if you know what I mean. Enjoy Cosmo. He's also a genius. Perhaps even moreso. :)
Rupert's wife Jill Purce does lovely group healing work, shamanic, a variant of family constellations. You can join in if you wish. (Also big fan of Cosmo Sheldrake!)
Fascinating talk. Much of value here. Thanks Rupert!
Love this chat! Go, Dr. Rupe!! xx
This is all very well, but i only asked you if you'd like salt and vinegar on your chips. :). I think i've just listened to 5000 brilliant sentences. Rupert always blows with mind.
Haha
yes his mind is blown
Thank you this so enlightening .I enjoyed your talks with the brilliant Krishnermerti so many years ago.
Deeply refreshing. Quite simply, thank you!
Rupert is such. Brilliant dude .. he is a psychedelic Christian.
And perhaps the most well-spoken person in history!
What is a Christian?

'Scientific ' materialism has created a lot of depression in humankind...
So has conventional religion...
So have shitty comments on the internet but as you can tell we haven't put a stop to either.
@SmeagÖl g. alright, bruv... I'm a guy tho... you may have not understood my comment correctly ...
You are such a good guy man. Seriously everything you just said is so straight to the point. Man I'd like to be you...
With 'conventional religion' I was referring to religions which dominated in the west. Judaism and christianity. The idea that there is a "ruling god, who is above all, whom you must love, because he says so" has also been responsible for a lot of suffering through a backward thinking.
These religions are not fundamentally bad, they're just another way of putting humans down (same as scientific realism).
We are minds within minds within minds.
Ooh I like that
Just a reminder Albert Einstein said "The field is the sole governing agency of the particle" By extrapolation and through evolution fields are responsible for structure and complexity. Teilhard de Chardin indicated that human self awareness added a new layer of consciousness he called homization whereby humans achieved a sense of immortality. I think Dr. Sheldrake has pretty much proved that morphogenetic fields impact genetics and provide natural memory of form (and perhaps some functions?). This has led me to electromagnetic fields and non-local holographic memory. As the good doctor explains, the soul according to Aristotle is our form and form is a result of morphic fields and morphogenetic interactions. This is helpful in understanding our identity, our soul is form-based in what we think now is an electromagnetic type field outside the visible perception range of humans. It might explain how ghosts or visitation spirits look the same as they did when alive and some think that reincarnation somehow applies our "soul" (EMF?)as a formation genesis of the human body, providing a "template" for our new body. Moreso, if the memory of all things are in the zero-point field, non-local, that would mean the body/brain is a transceiver of consciousness and memory rather than consciousness and memory being emergent properties. Thank you Dr. Sheldrake for your strength, faith and inspiration.
I recall reading an article written by Rupert Sheldrake about this in Kindred Spirit magazine in 1991.
Rupert Sheldrake is inimitable
Could you ever do a structured lesson-series where you synthesize a lot of your work and provide direction for future inquiry? Thanks for everything. :)
Always interesting, thank you. Would be delighted to hear you on New Thinking Allowed
Oh yeah. And could you imagine Michael Tsarion on NTA?

Yessss so true.. With Jeffrey Mishlove.. Two super heroes !!
Hello Dr Sheldrake! Been following your work since New Science of Life. It's interesting to see how your ideas have evolved since then.
brilliant 👏👏👏👏👏
Dark matter and dark energy... “it’s as if science had discovered the Cosmic Unconscious.”
That blew my mind-perfect analogy. Reality as embedded microcosms (nested hierarchies).
The catchword "nested hierarchies" indeed is crucially helpful. Especially as it illustrates how far you still get with a mechanistic worldview, also after accepting psychological influences across time and space. I altogether wonder if materialism and spiritualism could not perhaps one day begin to merge into a monism that will be methodically backed up, according to the latest standards.
Rupert Sheldrake is inspiring on so many levels. Reminds me of my Secondary school Teacher. I reckon Carl Jung's psychological theories tie well with the idea of Morphogenetic fields, even the holographic universe concept, as his idea for the collective unconscious, fuctions much like the World Soul. The Electric/Plasma universe paradigm also could possibly pave the way to explaining such realms of thought as Consciousness and Cosmology, to weather and the structuring properties of water and charge seperation.
Thank you for this speech! And sharing your, and those you have studied thinking. I was thinking about a year ago that if the consciusness grows from atoms to minerals, minerals to plants, plants to animals and animals to human, then maybe it goes from humans to planets, planets to suns and from suns to black holes and when you get to black hole you get to create new universe. We are getting there. For me, especially the part when you explained view that objects/things that "create themselves" are consciuss was beatiful and "eye opening".
What about elephants? Aren't they more human than we, sometimes? Like the one in Vienna that gave the human baby back to its mother, with the trunk, after it had rolled before its feet?
It also would interest me where the brain of a planet should be.
I read Sheldrake's 'The rebirth of nature...' circa 18 years ago. The paperback edition of the work I read was subtitled "the new Animism" but I have been unable to source it on the Internet. It must have been an obscure reissue or imprint from a different publication house or somesuch. I was already an experiential Animist prior to reading this work but his eloquence and the provocative redirection of scientific discourse I found informative and informed my worldview. I greatly value the scientific method and the building of human knowledge founded on literary citation and the peer-reviewed consensus of the scientific community. But the philosophy of science has philosophical problems as Sheldrake sketches in his critique of Mechanistic Materialism. Science is only one way of knowing in the human experience, there are others. This audiovisual lecture by Sheldrake is clearly thematically linked to his published work of the same name but presents a continuation of his endeavour and research since its publication. I feel this audiovisual presentation is deserving of repeated viewing, listening and reflection. I have only read that one book of his a long time ago: it may be timely to read another. Finally, the intersection of Consciousnes Studies and Zoosemiology of manifold forms of plant and animal communication, demonstrates the flawed philosophical reductionism of Mechanistic Materialism and the last circa 400 years of scientific discourse.
Always a pleasure to listen to Rupert
Love Rupert
God, this is fabulous!
Love ya Richard....a good friend of the late great Terrence McKenna. Two men I highly respect.

Good to see Leo subscriber here :)

Perhaps the 'new science' will be individual and direct experiences of the joys of life - peace, harmony, play, etc... and which will continue to materialize in our world as we (humanity) resume our role in nature.
Muchas gracias Mr. Sheldrake. Very interesting!
Interesting, I've been working the animate worldview as an extension to the scientific worldview. It is based on applied science research & participation research by going "deep digital". This talks give me confidence I'm on the right path, showing a stronger relation to the history of philosophy. So thank you.
Interesting -- have you published or produced anything on this to see? 👌
@@LeonGalindoStenutz not on the worldview itself, but I do have a channel "deep digital" explaining the applied science part: ruclips.net/user/mixelkiemen
I've been working for a while on the book. Not yet contacted any publisher, so if you have suggestions on where to publish it please share.
Thank you for these great talks, Rupert. I feel privileged to learn from you in this manner, and thanks to RUclips suggestions I found your channel. I recently viewed The Life and Ideas of David Bohm, and now am encouraged while seeing living humans carrying some of these ideas forward. It gives me hope. Loved discovering Merlin's work and book, also.
It would be very interesting to hear Ruperts thoughts on the relationship between Morphic Resonance and pandemics, vaccines and immunity.
So pertinent and and fully resonate with your work/views Rupert 🙏
I wish I could articulate such things as well when trying to discuss and elaborate on such things.. it's a real pleasure listening to you talk Sir 🙏
What he's talking about at the very end with a scientific renaissance informed by the understanding of the living conscious universe that can direct more correct and useful behavior is essentially the goal and scope of permaculture
What is permaculture, defined more conventionally?
@@HansDunkelberg1 Permaculture is both a design science and philosophy based on natural patterns to help create sustainable or regenerative human habitations and lifeways
@@dirtgoatpermaculture Do those pursuing it have a particular focus on (regenerative) habitations in space?
@@HansDunkelberg1 Not particularly. Usually it is used to help heal out relationship with the Earth and each other, but I am interested in the further reaching applications such as with AI and eventually if necessary off world, in which "nature" would mean the nature of space or a new cosmic body, and how to change it to be more Earth like or to change ourselves to be adapt to the new conditions. I think the general concept can reach far beyond nifty gardening and building methods, as many people see it
@@dirtgoatpermaculture The questions of gardening and building that appear as so trivial, here on Earth, become utterly complex, in space. Biosphere II has proven that. I presume that the problem generally is the smallness of the systems. The smaller it gets, the fewer possibilities has an ecological system to correct itself, with the help of resources from other places.
Energy is a Soul and a Soul is Pure Energy.
Hi Rupert. Fantastic presentation as usual.
I’ve been following your work for quite a long time. Of particular interest to me was your morphic resonance theory as I have been developing a similar theory based on galactic as well as terrestrial electromagnetic fields and how there is potential interactions between them + the DNA of all living things. I believe this is what primarily drives evolution and is potentially the fabric of consciousness (after all we are just a collection of 500 trillion cells operating collectively). I believe these fields are the key to explaining previously unexplained phenomena like telepathy as well cellular sentience, racial memory and the ability for horoscope to accurately predict pronounced aspects of our individual personality/consciousness.
Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do!
Love your talks, you should do more of these!
This was my first book by Rupert!
Excellent video. Thank you
you are on the right track and are getting closer
that life is the light deep inside in the human being ... the light shines on in the darkness, and the darkness has never comprehended it ... (prologue St. John)
Thank you Rupert 🙏
Dr. Sheldrake, I find it fascinating that a Novel Virus appears in rough concurrence with Terence McKenna's theory of the novelty wave. His model, which he himself was a bit skeptical of in a good way, had 2012 as a key date. Therefore may we say he was only off by eight years? That's nothing. Not to overly signify the terms Novel and Novelty as McKenna used it, but I found it interesting. Thanks for your work. :-)
Maybe the calendar's off and he was right on target.
That was a beautiful listen....I’m a big fan of Dawkins and pretty anti-religion but that was a very eloquent and well researched monologue which, as any good bit of science should do, leaves me wondering and asking questions. Great work 👏✌️
Good to see you Rupert!
proper wizard
Wonderful lecture ❣️🌿
Hello Rupert, in your various talks it would be good if you could start to say more about what you see as the application of morphic resonance theory (etc.) to mental healthcare, which, as you will know, is largely still centred around the biomedical model and the prescription of psychiatric drugs.
A most important worldview, indeed !
@Rupert Sheldrake - I just saw the gratitude talk at the horribly lit room however you wore a faint shadow which I liked. Dude. You have enough influence to move your talk to a resonant hall, I'll explain only as a singer. I am Virgo, like the janitor/director in my own adventure. Jolly good talk. I wanted to barf as the gratitude cascaded Niagara Falls of thank yooze at the end - clickout. Can't original folk afford your lectures? Working Theory. Why do YT channelers ignore poor people? That ain't right. Trialogues do exist in nature - all you need are two original people. Paradox - this comment is a thank you, I could hurl. I just remembered why I came here. Please, por favor, seebooplay read Castaneda's first 11 books (there are 13 - one is the Magical Passes - holey moley, makes yoga look like a mediocre holiday) and (you don't need to believe me) I am the only one who can translate Carlos' epic tomes into modern Newage Speak. I'm just saying that due to folk like yourself and Terence Carlos has taken on quite the turbocharged relevance. Cheers. I'm in Hollywood yes that one.
Thank you, Rupert. I didn't know that Medieval Christian theologians believed that our Divine Creator is in all living beings, and we are within Her Most Holy Being. It's what I believe.. I want to study more about Medieval Christianity, it seems to have been a time of great spiritual flowering within Christianity. I also learn a lot be watching NDE videos. And of course , from you. I read The Theory of Formative Causation many decades ago, when it came out. It gave me a greater understanding of time. I believe as well that space is not linear, but a, maybe infinite number if nesting orders of magnitude of life - concentric biomes of various scales - inter-penetrating, inter-acting. Time also is not linear. Astrophysicists now believe that at the very edge of a black hole, all points of time exist simultaneously, similar to the ancient and indigenous belief in the Eternal Now, in which all points of time are present. This concept helps me in my inner work spiritual practice where I focus on all of us humans as Beings of Divine White Light and Love, together at sort of the low orbital point where we are still connected to our Blessed Earth Mother, yet have a distinct sense of also being within the Divine Love energy being of our Great Cosmic Mother.
Visualizing us as Beings of eternally radiant Divine White Light, I also keep in mind that we are (I believe ) experiencing a number of different physical manifestations simultaneously. Focusing on this higher truth while meditating keeps my mind clear of ego-based distractions and false limitations because I am more aware that I am not one name, one face, one set of circumstances, etc., but as a radiant, eternal being of Divine White Light am experiencing many physical manifestations at the same time.
We could really do so much more good in the world, put out more positive, higher vibratory energies, if we integrated and normalized this more expansive, and truer sense of time.
It also resonated with me what you said about an Attractor Field. That's how I conceive of the Holy Spirit, inter-penetrating us at a higher field level and guiding/inspiring us into greater alignment with our Divine nature. I think all species have their own Holy Spirit, or what in Hinduism is called the Devas, to guide all within that species into greater alignment with their eternal Divine essence. As one of the passages in the Wisdom Section of the Bible tells us regarding the Holy Spirit,
Although alone, She can do all, Herself unchanging,
She makes all things new
She passes into holy Souls
And makes them friends of God and prophets
She deploys Her strength from one end of the Earth to the other
Ordering all things together for good.
Thank you again. Blessings from Upstate New York, US.
... infinite expressions of Love.
What a gem.
Loved this Dr Sheldrake!
I just love listening to you speak! And I do agree with much of what you say! I think you are a an amazing man! Hard to believe people thought of sentient beings as machines! How ignorant, especially when indigenous tribes have always been in communication with all of life & retain their telepathy & teach us today as to how to use it, if we are willing. (Now called Interspecies Communication = Anna Breytenbach (Animal Communicator - Full Documentary) Jon Young (several documentaries about how he was mentored by the grandson of an Apache Elder, the San Bushman of So. Africa, the last free Apaches, et al.) The animals & indigenous peoples have been asking us to stop killing their habitats, according to Anna Breytenbach & a Documentary concerning our ‘older brothers’ in northern Columbia! They were spot on with most of what the scientific data were saying! Sadly, not all of modern man, aka ‘little brother’ understands this. But sooner or later, Gaia will once again wipe us out for the last time, leaving no remnant left if we don’t wise up, so to speak, according to Native American prophesie, and has happened in the past, while leaving a remnant, according to past Native American prophecies & Sumerian history! Also interesting, sadly, is among only the ‘civilized’ are there warring peoples. This begs the question, who, then, is indeed, more civilized? I thoroughly enjoyed this topic & look forward to rewatching your lecture on the sun being conscious! All my best to you, and yours, Mr. Sheldrake. I highly respect you & your work. Also, nice job speaking online for the first time! Well done!
I've read about a conspicuous bloodlust of the indigenous tribes of the Amazon. And I"ve read that before the 17th century, also Europeans have been much more brutal, in their everyday life, than since the advent of the modern era. Perhaps the organized wars of our centuries just bundle deeply engrained urges which under less civilized conditions will be set free in a bigger number of smaller outbursts.
Sheldrake focuses on the history and plausibility of worldviews, meanwhile. He doesn't go into the sociological question of war and piece.

It is always such a pleasure to listen to your lectures. In fact, some of your theories and those of David Bohm I have included in a fictive thesis In a novel. If you have time to read it, you might find it both entertaining and informative...
